Welcome Icedragon!
Thanks Mary. Love the pics I am really glad to hear more than one person say that keeping a little laying flock of Icelandics is good, too. I really don't want to get rid of my girls, and one of them is one of my two best layers, next to my Dominique. They are crazy, fun little birds! I love their higher-pitched voices, too!
Another of my hens has decided to sit. She seems more serious about it than her sister, because I took away everyone's eggs (three laying hens are brooding, at current) and she's sitting determinedly on nothing. I wish they'd have gotten this bug a couple of months ago. Not sure I can talk DH into letting me give them eggs right now.
I forgot I had taken pics a couple of weeks ago.
Sven is so good about posing when I tell him to hold still.
