It's been a while since I've posted pics of the birds. Here they are!
I'm loving how my little late mystery runt, Bug, is turning out. She is so cute with the white face and reddish body. She's a talker too.
My handsome little man, Mucky, is of course looking gorgeous. Such a sweet little...
Sweetest little guy right here! He'll sit on my lap in the yard and let me pet him forever.
He jumps up on my shoulder, settles down, and hangs out there. Such a doll. He's going to be a very handsome little man.

Good for a laugh...

I received a dozen eggs and only two remained intact. One with no cracks and one with a few hairline cracks. I washed the one with cracks and sealed it with a little bit of wax and left the other one alone. They were so jumbled that they're probably scrambled. The box was an eggy mess. We'll see...
