she won't make it as cutest.. but maybe most grumpy?.. lol.. I had thought about getting a pic of the other hens trying to sit on her laying eggs... but she looks so squashed when they try (she has laid claim to the favorite box).. so I figured this one would do

 

lol.. never mess with an ruffled up grumpy old turkey hen

Here is my turkey and red/yellow golden pheasant eggs. 

Love your nails!  Just saying.  Had to say, and I would notice because I used to do nails back in the 80's and early 90's.  I really like the length. And the color.  Ok, so, those eggs look really nice too..wow..lots of them.  big_smile.png

Wow, this thread is on it's way to some high number of posts..especially if I keep replying to neat posts..which they all are!  That will be when I have the time to come on and be buggy.  Off to the neuro.  today..long awaited visited to see how my neck fusion has done.  Yaay..better be good! Taking x-rays that I've already had taken last week.

This thing isn't working again!! barnie.gif I've tried to get the pic on twice and it won't go through! 100_0232.JPG

 

Finally it worked! Oh and I know she looks rough! However, with all the other hens climbing on her and molting and all that.......She hates it when I touch her. My entry for broody hen pic. My red sex-link.
