All of us. My mother, thankfully, got the lightest case. Alejandro managed to get it twice, but lightly. Ruben caught it and has a lingering cough and chest congestion. I was doing all right with a fairly mild case until it turned into a sinus infection. I am now on antibiotics and more. My father has it and he&#8217;s like a zombie at the moment. He even went to the doctor&#8217;s. We are all recovering, but we&#8217;ve lost more than a week of anything not actually essential. So all the animals are fine, the basics of the farm kept running. But I&#8217;m sorry y&#8217;all, I just didn&#8217;t have the mental capacity to write a blog post. I can&#8217;t even tell you what we did last week. We worked, but it&#8217;s all a bit of a blur. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, instead, let me share with you the chicks. Week 6 didn&#8217;t see many changes, but Week 7 saw an upgrade in accommodations for both groups. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The black chicks have all their feathers so they moved to the big grow out space which has outside access, roosts, and, eventually, pasture access! It took them a couple of days, but they are starting to get the hang of the new digs. They&#8217;ll be there until they start laying proper eggs, so about five months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lapiccolinauy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_img_9548.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"465\" data-attachment-id=\"3428\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/lapiccolinauy.com\/es\/2023\/10\/15\/spring-flu-season-chicks-week-6-7\/web_img_9548\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lapiccolinauy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_img_9548.jpg?fit=800%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"800,600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon PowerShot ELPH 360 HS&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1506923455&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.066666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"web_img_9548\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lapiccolinauy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_img_9548.jpg?fit=620%2C465&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lapiccolinauy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_img_9548.jpg?resize=620%2C465&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3428\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The white chicks don&#8217;t look like chicks anymore.

Spring here has some very hot days with very cold nights. The cold nights are fine &#8211; but the high daytime temps stress out the meat birds to the point of heat stroke. So they get fans. They sit right there in front of them and are very happy, thank you very much. If anyone had told me, years ago, that I would have fans to keep my dinner alive I&#8217;d have fallen off my chair laughing. Yet here we are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With some luck, and help from modern medicine, the blog will return to its mostly regular posts. I hope that y&#8217;all are surviving the seasonal illnesses that come with the changing temperatures with more success than we are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resfr\u00edos de la primavera &amp; Pollitos semanas 6 &amp; 7<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ac\u00e1 a La Piccolina, todos tienen el resfr\u00edo de la primavera. Todos. Mi madre, por gracias, tuvo un resfr\u00edo muy liviano y ya est\u00e1 bien. Alejandro tuvo el resfr\u00edo dos veces, pero no muy fuerte. Ruben tuvo y todav\u00eda tiene una tos que queda. Yo estaba bien, con un resfr\u00edo liviano, hasta que desarroll\u00e9 una infecci\u00f3n en los sinos. Ahora tengo antibi\u00f3ticos y m\u00e1s. Mi padre es un zombi &#8211; \u00e9l tiene un resfr\u00edo bien fuerte. \u00a1\u00c9l fue al doctor! Estamos recuperando, pero perdimos m\u00e1s de una semana.&nbsp; Hacemos nada m\u00e1s que los esenciales. Todos los animales est\u00e1n bien, y el campo sobrevivi\u00f3. Pero, lo siento, no tuvo la capacidad de escribir noticias por el Blog. No puedo decirle que hicimos la semana pasada. Trabajamos, pero m\u00e1s de esto, no tengo ninguna idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bueno, sin m\u00e1s noticias, hablamos de los pollitos. Semana 6 se parece m\u00e1s o menos como Semana 5. Pero por semana 7 hicimos cambios grandes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las pollitas comerciales tienen todas sus plumas y mudaron a un espacio mucho m\u00e1s grande. \u00a1Ahora tienen acceso a un jard\u00edn chico, duerman a dormideros, y, eventualmente, van a tener acceso al pasto! Quedaron nerviosos por algunos d\u00edas, pero est\u00e1n mucho m\u00e1s c\u00f3modas ahora. Van a quedar en este espacio hasta que empiezan a poner, casi&nbsp; 5 meses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lapiccolinauy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_img_9548.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"465\" data-attachment-id=\"3428\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/lapiccolinauy.com\/es\/2023\/10\/15\/spring-flu-season-chicks-week-6-7\/web_img_9548\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lapiccolinauy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_img_9548.jpg?fit=800%2C600&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"800,600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon PowerShot ELPH 360 HS&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1506923455&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.066666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"web_img_9548\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lapiccolinauy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_img_9548.jpg?fit=620%2C465&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lapiccolinauy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_img_9548.jpg?resize=620%2C465&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3428\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Las dobles pechugas no se parece pollitos m\u00e1s.
