BYC Café

Good Morning,

Coffee is ready now. It still a bit dark outside and it is warm. We might just head into summer and skip the spring altogether by the feel of it now.

My young Japanese bantam is egg sitting since yesterday, first time broody and she is not coping well. Her comb completely flip and flat down on 1 side. She pulled out her chest feather and I imagine it is enough for me to make a doona=duvet out of it.

I am going to drag her out of the nest every 2 hours today. I want her to take a break from egg laying, but not to the point of ill health.

Tiny rooster is good now, seem to be all in good health. What am I going to do with him? Integrate him or just keep him by himself? He no longer sick so it seems, but he still can infection the flock if he has mycoplasma.

I am off to service my chickens now.

Have a great day all.
 
After lunch, we'll extract honey, I hope! I think we will; they have been VERY busy on the goldenrod, of which we have a few acres.
Wellllll... Nope. No honey today. We'll check again in about a week. I'd love to get some more. But if they're packing it all away down below for noshing on this winter and it gets them to spring in good health, well, I will happily make that trade.
