Hey everyone. Just wanted to say hey, I'm still alive, and yes I'll be posting full updates on Norman, Norma, and eggs tomorrow. It's been a challenging and busy past few days for me (both in good and bad ways) so I've been way too distracted to spend much time on BYC.
Hey QueenMisha sorry to hear that the second lot of eggs were also infertile
Sorry, this is probably a silly question but in my defence, no roosters here .. How would Norman deal with Norma’s long and beautiful tail; if you get my meaning
Generally the hens move their tails to one side or another during the mating process. Even with such a large tail, I think that she is able to move it out of the way well enough.
And you aren't kidding about long tails! I've measured and both Norman and Norma are about 50% tail by full body length. I intend on adding it to the standard that they should be equal parts bird and tail.
