Well, after the horrific storms we had yesterday, downpours--AGAIN, today is finally a beautiful day, no humidity and 70's. We'll take it. I think the girls are tired of rain and mud too. Funny, yesterday before the storms came, all 3 were trying to lay at the same time. 2 of them were fighting over one box, even though the one next to it was empty-- the one started pecking at the others face. When i looked in, i saw one had laid an egg and they were fighting over the egg???? weird-- my RIR was pacing frantically outside, again, the other nest was empty-- I grabbed the egg out of the box to stop the bikckering, one got out, the RIR got in and knocked my barred rock out of it who started pacing as if to say "i've got to lay NOW", OMG what a rukus. !! I don't know if they sensed that weather or what. We lost power for about 7 hours, yuk--- but we made it without much damage although my beans and corn pretty much destroyed due to the wind and all the water they've been in for the last 2 weeks. - Crazy stuff. The coop weathered the storm-- hoping to get more accomplished this weekend since we're supposed to be dry up until end of next week.
