NIGEL:
Well the flowers are starting bloom! We are close to being Grandparents.... we hope.... having two hens sitting on eggs. One on two.... I was worried as the hen had been sitting for more than 3 weeks (gestation time for chooks) & the eggs hadn't hatched. It had been fertilized. :(
We have the brooder in place & ready for our new arrivals. Then other Australorp hen has 10 eggs under her as other chooks kept laying eggs in her box when she would take a brief reprieve from them!
Anyway the place is looking good. I returned #46 back to the other roosters as that was the main thing he did after shifting him to the hens.... he hung out with the roosters??? Anyway next thing we know he was getting beaten up... mostly by Jack & Blackbeard. So moved him back... he had TWO tail feathers left, now it is ONE. He doesn't linger with the rooster much now.
You can see the goat barn next to the coop.
