Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.
I left Jody's door open just wide enough so that she could go out as needed for more water (even though she has the baby bottle in there practically hanging in her face) because of the 95F heat we had yesterday.
When I did lock up imagine my surprise to see fickin' Savannah had muscled open the door, drove Jody off her nest and settled in with her three chicks!!
I yanked her out and tossed her on the floor of the coop then flushed her kids out and shut the door to the ward. Poor little Jody was up on the biggest pile of eggs she could find in a nesting box. It took her a while to settle back on her nest in the ward. I'm going to have to keep the door completely closed for the duration of the incubation and manage all her breaks.
