Sick Chickens

Its never good when a chicken in our home gets sick.  Its like leaving a fire unattended in the forest, there's a chance nothing could happen, but more than likely within a few days it will spread like crazy.  Whelp, that's what happens when we have a sick chicken.  It happens the same way EVERY time.  I start out all optimistic, cleaning, washing, using hand sanitizer, administering extra vitamins, and getting LOADS of Oj down several little chickens throats.  (They do not like Oj.)  And just when things start to settle down for one little chicken, I slack off for a moment thinking that we have reached the end and then BAM!!  (yea just like that chef...BAM!)  It hits the other kids.

Well that has been what we have been dealing with these past few weeks, and yesterday the unthinkable happened, the princess got sick.  Yup, so I am home with the princess and the energizer bunny, who, one would think would slow down when sick but that is only slightly true.  He has only had one day with feavers of 104 that wiped him out.  yup, that's right, 104, that's what it take to slow this chicken down.  He has a temp of 102.8 today....you would NEVER guess it by his activity.  I left the room thinking he was all tucked in on the sofa only to return to find him climbing on the computer table.  Yup, energizer bunny, er, chicken.

So needless to say, this brings multitasking to a whole new level.  This is how I spent my evening last night as Coby was in meetings.

And people wonder why I dont like winter....
