Good morning Cafe.
Coffee is made. Tea bags and kettle on the counter.
The sun is shining. The chickens are flat out foraging. Not even very interested in breakfast.
Can't blame them really. Who wants to eat some mashed up grains when there are bugs and juicy shoots available. After all, one can only do so much Muesli; especially the cheap stuff with hardly any nuts and fruit in it.

Mornin', y'all! 
Soggy , gray morning here, but a lot pleasanter than it was yesterday evening! The wind built all day, and was sustained over 30 mph and gusting over 50 by the time I did the evening feeding. The poor horses were so rattled by all the tree branches blowing down, they were almost too spooky to eat their dinner. I must admit, I wasn't exactly serene myself; watching trees thrashing around like that (especially the dead ones) makes it a little hard to keep my mind on my work; thoughts keep straying to escape routes every time a gust comes up. We got maybe half an inch of rain out of all that drama. Not that I'm complaining; this system produced tornadoes from Texas to Florida, so if all we got was a bit of bluster, I'm grateful.
And this morning, we have no internet. Don't know if there's a connection there or not.
My last free-ranging rooster got taken by a fox mid-morning a couple of days ago. His sole remaining female companion is locked up by herself, but I don't want to leave her that way; any advice on introducing her to an established group without getting her killed?

Morning! We got a half-inch of snow so no green here, and pine trees don't count in the color change. My horses do not notice the wind unless it is pushing over 100 and even then they do not get spooky, they get watchful in case a tree comes down. I think that is why they are still alive, LOL!
I guess I would put the hen in a smaller area within the larger group if they have never been with her and go from there. It depends on your flock. I have had some really mean hens in the past that were horrid to newbies but now I have a different dynamic with roos involved and they are just more laid-back.
Good luck and I hope it works out for the hen!

Good morning, Cafe. Thanks for the coffee.
A grey, dreary, drizzly day is in store for me.

Maybe put her in a big dog crate so they can get used to seeing her. After a while, let her in with the others at night.Mornin', y'all!

Good morning, Cafe. @Bunnylady is there any way you could gradually introduce the flock to her one at a time over a period of time in a neutral area ? If they really kick her butt and endanger her life, I'd let her take her chances on the outside.
The man in the oval office is in desperate need of a filter, both for "in" and "out."
