YES, the chickens are back! Sorry to hear they're feeling ill, though. What do you feed a sick chicken? You can't really give them chicken noodle soup... Good luck with your conference! You're going to slay :D
I mean, chickens will happily eat chicken noodle soup and they'd probably love it but it's too salty to be healthy for them (and they should avoid chicken...other meat is fine, though)! She fasts today; tomorrow she gets regular chicken feed with some yogurt or other protein. Plus she always gets some of whatever I'm eating. I've seen her swallow whole penne noodles bigger than her head like it was nothing.
My use of the word "can't" was kind of presupposing that you wouldn't want to introduce your chickens to cannibalism as a primary source of nourishment. Maybe that was a bit hasty :) Honestly a little impressed by the penne noodles. She must be a powerful bird!
