I love that picture of Hibou. So comfy!The forecast was very much a let down, there was no storm! Or rather there was, but it didn't hit us. I love it when they get it wrong that way, not like last week when we had a small rain forecast and ended up with a 20 h power shortage. We still have a chance though, storms are announced for today and tomorrow.
I'm very happy to hear this! I wonder if beginning to lay made her unwell with her anemia, as laying takes a lot of energy and ressources ? Is anemia in chicken the same as in human (deficiency of hemoglobin due to lack of iron / B12) or is it specific ?
YES! Just do it Kelly! Otherwise we will all think it's some kind of silly stubborn newfoundland superstition - " thou shall not let anyone climb on your ladder"!
Hibou doing what a cat does best on caturday, sleeping exactly where she shouldn't.

I don’t know about the anemia. I doubt it is iron deficiency - that would have to be extreme to cause anemia. The first thing you think of is blood loss eg from parasites. But cecal worms are pretty harmless and the vet didn’t see any evidence of mites, lice etc.
The second thing you think of is something destroying red blood cells. That could certainly be from something she ate. Or it could be she has some weird underlying disease.
til you have to finish swallowing ha!
my mum bless her has done chores for me yesterday and the day before. I went out yesterday afternoon but I got so nauseous and dizzy, I stepped on poor Penelope’s foot, I was really afraid I would hurt one of them. I they crowd around your feet begging for treats, wanting attention….. Mum yelled at me 
told me she was quite capable of feeding chickens 
(Pun intended)
