Day 1009: 3rd October 2024 | Staying at Moby’s again. Went home to feed the chicks…


Unfortunately, one of them appears to be dying. I have no idea what has happened. But nature is nature. I can not put a creature “out of its misery.”

I cleaned the water bowl and refilled it. I cleaned the food bowl and re fed them. But one was, what I originally thought was dead and another not looking it’s best.

I got into the bird avery. I moved the still mobile chick over to the food, then picked up the chick that I saw move when sorting out the food. I tried to feed it, but it was hopeless. I was obviously upset, but truthfully, more frustrated. I had assumed that when Sammie had said she was bringing chickens to the farm for eggs that she meant laying hens. Ones that would automatically be ready to be left to their own devices on the farm with seeds or whatever thrown to them every couple of days.

I had no idea that she meant baby chickens or, in this case, baby turkeys and that I would have to look after them every day while she was not there. I wasn’t even asked. Yet, worse than that, she had the audacity to say to me, someone she knows hasn’t eaten meat or seafood in over 8 years, that, “they aren’t pets, they’re food. Turkey for Thanksgiving, hahaha. “

Anyway, I’m with Moby, so I’m putting my phone away x
