Fried Dandelions. Yup. The yellow flower that turns into a wish!
My Great Grandma--who survived the Great Depression-- taught me when I was a little girl how to create many things from her backyard: corn cob jelly, dandelion green salad, dandelion jelly, and our favorite, fried dandelions...
Meet Kerplunk, Cluedo, Uno and Scrabble, my 3 week old Silkie Chicks.
As suggested I am providing my chicks with new textures and smells to explore. No boredom here!
We have had sawdust and sand last week and today we have grass, dandelions, a log and some straw.
It's so funny watching them...
I have 4 one week old chicks, we’ve kept them under a heat lamp in a box in the house all week giving them a few minutes outside to enjoy the grass and dirt. Everything I have read says roughly 90-95 degrees is a good temp for them at this point...but my chicks pant at 85-90 and seem happiest...
