• 0:22
  the. Coop and let's start your day
• 0:24
  off in a fantastic way. Hey.
• 0:28
  Everybody, good morning from the chicken.
• 0:30
  Coop today is yogurt. Day and what I mean by that?
• 0:34
  Is I like to. Give the chickens a variety of
• 0:37
  snacks and. This is.
• 0:40
  For their enrichment as well as it is for my enrichment.
• 0:43
  And they love yogurt. So for those of you that did not
• 0:46
  know that about chickens, chickens love.
• 0:48
  Yogurt specifically. My chickens really like Greek
• 0:51
  yogurt, so Costco sells the big giant containers of it and I get
• 0:56
  that and give them yogurt with blueberries and shredded
• 1:00
  zucchini for breakfast. Now granted, they have all their
• 1:03
  very normal. Chicken food.
• 1:05
  Inside. They're coop.
• 1:07
  And it's there for them to eat 24/7 when they choose.
• 1:10
  And then when I open up those gates and they go free, you
• 1:12
  know, ranging all day long, they eat anything they find.
• 1:16
  Pretty much anything they'll find, they'll eat.
• 1:18
  It but before they go they. Always stop and you know you
• 1:22
  can't. Start your day without a
• 1:23
  healthy. Breakfast.
• 1:25
  So I send them off with this and I got to tell you, eating
• 1:30
  chickens, eating yogurt is. Hysterical because.
• 1:32
  It is one of the funniest things you could ever imagine watching
• 1:36
  and they love doing it so. Anyway, why am I talking about
• 1:42
  yogurt and chickens? Because here's the fun part
• 1:44
  about this for me. I come out here.
• 1:47
  That's right, Rufus, I come out here every day and you all have
• 1:51
  heard me say this before. About how much I.
• 1:53
  Enjoy being with them, helping them, taking care of them.
• 1:57
  And it never becomes a chore. And at the same time, you still
• 2:00
  have to find ways to always enrich your own experience.
• 2:03
  So one of the ways I do this is by changing things up, trying
• 2:07
  different things with them, seeing things.
• 2:09
  It's good for them, it's good for me.
• 2:11
  It's moving things around. It's always in finding a way to
• 2:14
  enrich your own life in the process.
• 2:17
  And this changing things is part of enrichment.
• 2:21
  And here's the part we resist change so often, we really do.
• 2:25
  We resist it, but we don't need to because it there's always
• 2:28
  some growth in it. There's always something fun in
• 2:31
  it. So coming out and changing the
• 2:33
  pattern of how I do things for them, giving them different
• 2:38
  foods, they absolutely love it. And moving their stuff around,
• 2:42
  they love it. Have you ever felt like you just
• 2:44
  needed to move the furniture in your room or you wanted to add
• 2:46
  something new to your room? That's because you're looking
• 2:49
  for a way to shift and enrich things.
• 2:52
  So what's so important to remember, so important to
• 2:56
  remember is that that is not abnormal, that is normal.
• 2:59
  It's not about not being satisfied, it's about growing.
• 3:02
  And that's part of growth. When you, when you're doing
• 3:05
  those things, you're expanding. So growth is forever and ever
• 3:09
  and ever and it moves around. I mean, as long as you're alive,
• 3:13
  you're going to be growing in some way, shape or form.
• 3:16
  Now it's your decision if you want it to be, you know, towards
• 3:19
  your, the things you want or away from the things you want.
• 3:22
  But either way, you'll be growing and expanding.
• 3:25
  Growing doesn't always have to mean, you know, a good thing.
• 3:28
  It can be a bad thing too. So this part for me is
• 3:32
  definitely on the lighter side. It's towards side.
• 3:35
  It's what I'm looking for. It's the enrichment.
• 3:37
  And it also makes it so that the mundane becomes more fun.
• 3:41
  The mundane is not mundane at that point.
• 3:44
  So my friends, I hope that that makes sense.
• 3:47
  I hope you find a way to enrich your life today and try
• 3:49
  something different. All right, I hope you have a
• 3:51
  blessed day and I'll see you tomorrow.
• 3:53
  Bye.
