How is Lucy doing?
My buffs are doing OK. Although one looks like it may be reaching the end.

Lucy is doing great! She used to be top of the pecking order until she lost her last 3 flock mates last summer to a bald eagle. Now she hangs with the other BO's, but doesn't take the lead at all. She is so quiet now. That being said, she wont take any guff from anyone either. For a truly traumatized hen, she has recovered as well as can be hoped for, she's healthy and living the good life. She did stop laying shortly after the attack, but no matter. She isn't here for the eggs. None of them are here solely for that.

ETA: One is getting to the end of what? Laying? How old are your BO's?
