I am guessing the chicks have missed me. I opened the gate to give them fresh food and water before work and a few of them ended up jumping at me and on top of my shoulders. That was crazy. That has not ever happened before. 

I did see Athena and Onyx this morning. 

I saw Yeller when I got home from work. It looked like Yeller was hanging out with Sonny. 

May was over in the corner. I did not like that, so I went close to her and she was able to run to the other side of the shop. I do think she is getting better. 

The chicks jumped up on me again this afternoon. I have to say, I don’t think that will get old. I find it amazing. 

Pedro ate out of my hand. He does make me nervous, but he is so gentle with eating out of my hand. I am very careful though. I do not want to lose a hand. Lucky also ate out of my hand. The donkeys surrounded the chicken coop I was in while feeding Rena and Annabeth. I think it is funny how they do that. I was able to pet and love on them as I walked around them. 

Fred is still acting weird. I wish I could put my finger on what is going on, but I can’t yet. He is at least upright. 

I sprayed the ground where the chicks were, they all laid down in the cool water. I cannot say I blame them. 

Pedro was following me around. I think he knows how much he is loved. Everyone needs love. I give these animals love and they know it.
