Chicken Butt

With 3 beautiful grandchildren - 2 under 2 years old it is safe to say we've cleaned up our fair share of poopy butts.....Well- I can now add this to my list of accomplishments- cleaning a chicken butt! My sweet RIR Lulu had developed a pretty ugly looking poopy clump on her rear end. Since her eggs pass over that nastiness and her lovely fluffy butt was very unbecoming, something had to be done! Here you can see me soaking her butt in warm water to loosen up the ugly clump. She was quite calm and tolerated this indignity quite well. I happy to say she is once again her beautiful fluffy butted self- clean as a whistle. Can you believe I soaked a chicken butt?????
