Good morning y'all! I noticed you always write in at 5 AM, you see .
Not much going on here. Jenny is on Day 13, still going strong. She scared me for a bad minute 'cause she got off the nest for a whole half hour. But I read that a hen can get off for up to an hour. She is sitting on six eggs, not five, and two are definitely developing (I took the opportunity to candle them while she was gone). I don't know about the others so I'm leaving them there just in case.
Matilda also decided to sit on a couple duck eggs, but I don't trust her. She failed me once, might do it again.
The chickies are almost eleven weeks old. They still have not got to free range. I feel bad for them but it's in their best interest at the moment.
Patience

Hilda and Winnie look like two ladies out for a walk, don't they?

I hope Jenny hangs in there and has to chicks to show for her efforts. Hilda and Winnie look like they're having a great time walking & talking
