Handsome devils.

Jaffar is now out with his ladies. And crowing up a storm with a clear throat. A good night’s sleep will do wonders!

Honestly Bob, I don’t think that Jaffar has any parasites, but I won’t take any chances with any of them, because there’s many other animals nearby that may carry the parasites. I want nothing but the best for my kids!

You really should not treat unless there is proof of something going on. Worms can develop resistance.

My thoughts exactly my friend

Beauties

Do Phyllis and Betty get along?

Much better since the addition of Glynda and Lady Featherington. In fact the 4 of them have become their own group during certain parts of the day. When the big ladies are grooming and digesting. Phyllis will take the other 4 out and about. The 4 of them are much higher energy than the big girls.

Here they are on the deck the other day without the big girls.

Yes I am office manager/exec admin/get er done admin support and official gofer.

If it needs doing I do it.

When it gets light the boss and I are going to check out the right-of-way (RoW). That’s were the install the pipeline. Pipe is buried at least 90cm down. Hope to see some Bison! The bears are all hibernating now.

Those bison tend to ignore everything but a wolf pack, and even there will frequently stomp at them instead. Enjoy having them around, tread carefully around the bison pies and have a tree near by to dodge behind.

Poor Bernie, I hate to call her names but yes she is a free loader. She is just slightly younger then the Rural king ladies who are laying up a storm and have been for a while. Thought she may need more time due to her leg issues. Now I have Lilly and Karen who were hatched the end of April and both those girls are now laying. I fear she is going to be called names and be a spoiled princess until the spring now.

I have six freeloading hens now. Only Shenandoah is laying everyday. What ever is going on, laying eggs is the last thing I’m worried about. I’m hoping Jaffar has some answers to this, but it is up to him. I raise chickens for pets anyways

Awesome photo!

Thanks. She's very photogenic. Not quite to Phyllis level but then who is.
