I did something pretty mean to two of my chickies today. Jackie and Naughty both snuck through the plant barrier on my flowerbed, and just about destroyed half the plants by the time I caught them in the act. So I started throwing treats to Summer and Heather. Jackie and Naughty went nuts trying to get back out of the barrier before all the treats were eaten by the other two. I didn’t help them. BAD CHICKIES!! No treats for you, and you can just watch as the GOOD chickies eat it all.
