    Thanks for the support on our loss, everyone. Her kids all got to say goodbye, even Riddick went into the nestboxes to spend a few minutes with her. Hubby suggested we get a few buff orpingtons this spring, two or three. So her golden legacy can live on.

    Dutch nesting with Hooky while she lays her egg. This is one of my favorite rooster behaviors. They were bukbukking and purring to each other. 🥰

    I can't incubate eggs until I have a broody to slip the babies under. I shouldn't be encouraging anyone to go broody buuut....babies!!! Of the 18 eggs I gave away last week, he has 15 developing smoothly and one that might have a blood ring. So exciting!

    Not the happiest with the perspective on this one, he's kind of twisted. Kiddo is doing well for her second day of preschool. She was having a harder time sitting and cooperating but nothing too major.

    She loves it! And she did very good waiting her turn and being friendly! I think Fridays are show and tell so maybe I'll snag Dutch or Blackberry for her to show off. It's online class. Here's a chicken I doodled on her whiteboard while they were having a "brain break" and watching/dancing to...

    Kiddo started school today. Also Buffy is sleeping in the nestbox. I wonder if she's thinking of going broody? She'd be a wonderful mother...being the flock matriarch and all.
