At The Controls

So… yesterday, another egg!  Three in three days!  For sure those girls are understanding the words “egg or jail.”  They may be taking turns but that’s okay!  They are 300% ahead of last week!  We can work on the term “individual responsibility” later.

Nyel has been rewarding them with extra treats.  Yesterday it was meal worms.  They look a little creepy to me, but the girls love them.  Little Red Hen, of course, goes right up onto Nyel’s wheelchair to get them.  Up-Close-And-Personal is her middle name.

LRH has also shown quite a serious interest in the controls for the wheelchair.  We’re not sure what her plan is, but if she has the concept of “eggs keep you out of jail” she just might get the idea of “going for a joy ride.”  Personally, I don’t see the connection… but you never can tell with chickens.
