Old age is setting in,

feathers4fun from Oregon is coming down for the Stockton show. Her posting says she will be bringing blue JG pullets and cockarels but would like a PM so she knows what to bring.

Hope this helps, can't find the posting to send the PM myself.

ETA There will be bantam pullets for showmanship birds as well.

Quick question. My mil caught Betty off her nest outside foraging this morning. She said she was outside for at least an hour. But she was back on her nest the rest of the day. Is this normal? Or the eggs junk now? Or is this a sign of a bad broody?

Sounds normal. Let her go and see what happens.

Did you get another white egg today?

No...but I did find a white egg on the floor of the duck coop just now. It's duck I'm think anyway) - it just has that look to it...covered in poop. I am going to fry it up though tonight. If I crack it open I will know for sure if it is duck or chicken. I'm curious. We do not find duck eggs in the the duck house after letting the ducks out...ever. They do not come to the house to lay eggs. They aren't like chickens.

Thanks for the link Dian.

Just wanted to share that another of my ewes just lambed 20 minutes ago. She's 7 years old, so we were really worried about her delivery. But, everything went great, and we ended up with two gorgeous baby girls!!

sheep! so exciting!
Zoo, I had one set of orph and Marans broodies who used to take an hour off every day to do a HUGE broody poop and scare all the other chickens, eat and get water. They would put their wings out and make this INSANE noise and walk up the sidewalk in the back. Up and down, eat, up and down, eat.... I don't know that they took an hour, but they were off for a fair bit.

They were the only birds sparkles did NOT decide to join going broody with.

How was everyones weekend? We went to wineland and had a lot of fun. Indoor coop seems to be working, but I had a surprise quail hatch today! I was not expecting to out them in lockdown till tonight. One poor baby got her foot stuck in the turner, shes going to need a cup later.
