One did spend the night in the feed barrel the other night. The barn door was open and she got in the barrel. Hubby closed the coop that night. It was pretty much empty.

Take care and hope you're both feeling much better soon. As for taking advice from a chicken. I would have no problem listening to her advice. Helen has continued to show much wisdom. In fact all your hens show an amazing talent for cutting through the scratch and getting to the point of any problem. You're lucky to have each other. Looking forward to hearing more from Helen. Will she be having her own blog, or will she be sharing space with you?<br />By the way, I second Andrea's suggestion for the Hot Toddy. Try it, it'll work wonders.Sharon Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16248613358350300974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220470666707560125.post-42338155630248640132010-01-05T11:28:14.994-06:002010-01-05T11:28:14.994-06:00Oh...one more thing...

That nanny idea of yours, she would have to keep up with some serious standards ;)<br />I am sorry to hear that you are under the weather.<br />Having Helen around to visit with you indoors will surely keep your spirits up despite having a cold.<br />Stock up on Elderberry syrup, echinacea, zinc, Emergen-C, maybe even a probiotic to keep your intestinal track all evened out.<br />If the nearest natural foods store is too far, my second piece of advice is this: A HUGE cup of hot tea, a small spoonful of honey, a decent size wedge of lemon, and a healthy shot of Jamieson's Irish Whisky.
