Are your hands small?
He looks huge!

My hands are normal, he's big but wasn't big enough to justify keeping.

I have some sad news. Casper passed away this weekend while we were gone. I was worried when I left; he had a little dried blood around his nostrils I had hoped was from a peck but his beak and skin almost looked hypoxic, with a blue tinge. I am pretty sure it was what I expected, organ failure. I am pretty sad.

at least he had a great life with all your care and cuddles

Considering they're competing against your jumbos and mostly colors you already have I am fine with this

I will have to let you know if a super sized pearl-fee brother pops up. Both of them are on the smaller side so far.

I don't think he was as big of a fan of the cuddles as I was, but I didn't subject him to them all that often.

Shhhh they all love cuddles
Tomorrow I'm going to start leveling the aviary site if the ground is dried up a bit. I might actually get to start all the seeds I haven't been able to do yet

Yaay! I'm excited to see what you're working with, site-wise. Hope the weather's on your side .

Is this a "yeller?" They're all spiky and wet, but I assume they'll be white one day.

Can you take a picture of your flashlight?
I want to see what you have on the end of it.
I want it.

if you want to test the security of your aviary, just release some 2 week olds!!! we’ve been wrangling more babies and fixing small holes all day!!! I may have lost a couple to my dogs, but headcount looks good overall!!

I candled eggs under broodies today. 2 due this weekend, 2 tossed, and 9 due June 8th with incubator babies. going to start candling incubators between now and Friday.

i’m pretty wiped out tonight.....reworked and watered the plants, set up a covered feeding station, collected eggs (23 quail and 5 chicken) and fixed gaps along with backfilling with dirt.
