Change of plans

The low existing bird is usually the one most aggrieved with newcomers.
Not sure if they are protecting their place,
or just glad to finally have someone lower to beat on.

So I got a BBSO, a welsummer, and an olive egger, I'm gonna have to get some good pics of this olive egger cuz it is quite a bit larger, has thick ass legs and quite the comb

thank you for sharing your babies it is always so much fun to watch over the top of the fence what is happening in someone else's yard.

i played the little video at 10pm and my dog who was sleeping nearby JUMPED at the calling hen. (giggle) so that made it even funnier.

I am so jealous that you have so much green. It is still mud and rock season here, the snow just receded and nothing has started growing yet. The 'ice-age' comes every year for us.

I feel for you! I can't do the cold, I prefer it nice and toasty, lol. Don't worry spring will get to you soon enough

So, I have to go back to work tomorrow, should I let them go about their business with their safety door or wait till I get home to supervise?

If they've been doing well with few issues thus far, I'd leave them with access to the safety door. If that makes you nervous, or you're just not completely sold on it being safe, then wait until you're home to open it up.

It was very smooth minus the lowest in the pecking order, she's a bit bent but not being a total dick, lol
