MaeDay is a cute name, DL.

I thought of 'Mayday' because she was in trouble hatching on May Day. Just a little swizzle on the spelling to feminize it to guarantee she's a pullet .
But it keeps making me think of this video I watched with some Germans who worked on my gold plating line when we did the software upgrade. THEY showed it to us:

I hope the broody hatch gets you a pullet or two!

thanks - me too!

Coffee is made. I can't recommend it this morning.

Some people aren't used to really good coffee Shad, just put out the cream and sugar, they'll be fine.

It's frosty here and some halfwits mentioned the word snow.

We has a skiff of snow overnight, it was just below freezing. It won't hit 50 today and will be below freezing again tonight.

Good morning and thanks for the coffee, in whatever form it may be in today.

No snow here atm but it did get freezing cold last night and will be close 32/31 for the next week or so with snow showers mentioned for Fri. night.
Sorry, Shad for the ridiculousness that you have to deal with. If you were a comedian, you would have some great material to sift through!
Enjoy the day you all. I need to go uncover some plants.

Some are bound to tell you I am a comedian but I don't think they mean the funny kind.
Most days it's fine Margie. It's just they've been here a lot so I get reminded of what they are like more often than is comfortable.

Good morning everyone!

Thanks for the coffee. Just finished getting caught up...you guys are a chatty bunch.
Cloudy, humid, 77°F this morning....looks like rain? maybe not!

Mr. Corona decided to find his way back home this morning, been out gallivanting around the neighborhood for the last 8 days! I didn't name him that my closest neighbor did....they have gone somewhere, so I guess he decided to come home and be a pain in George's side! doesn't look any worse for the wear.

Everyone make it a great day!

And I thought I had some odd looking chickens.
Pleased Mr Corona made it home. Did he tell you where he had been?

parted with one of my hens today

A neighbour who had some rescue hens was down to the last one last Nov., and asked if I could spare one to keep it company. I let them choose one from my flock. They chose Dorothy, my RIR. Now their last rescue hen has gone, they need company for Dorothy. Her best friend had been Isabella (who pined for a whole day when Dorothy left in the autumn), so it really had to be her. Shame she is also my best layer But the timing could have been a lot worse, because my broody is on day 4 of sitting on 4 of Isabella's eggs, so for daughter or two of Isabella's to appear in a few weeks' time... ideally also of Barry's, so that they're pure breed LAs and blue egg layers!

I take it you believe she's gone to a good home. Good luck with the hatch.

It is a weird time! We need to stay away for people in public but are then confined with family that are to close!

oh yes - she'll be free ranging in the walled garden of a castle! with her bestie!

Nope! Wasn't even hungry? My neighbor named him that after Googling him....found out their country of origin is China. I don't name any of my birds, except 'pretty bird'.
Have you seen the video I made of him?
