Does Thing have eyes?!

She needs another trim, but between the cold and growing feathers from moult, it hasn't happened yet.

I just noted that it looks like only three of your ladies are in the main coop!

It's been that way since the cold spell.

Dear Queen-In-Waiting Bernadette,

As @Ponypoor pointed out in a letter to you, additional chickens may not necessarily be a bad thing! This could present opportunities. Yes, Diana is an experienced Queen but the presence of many small subjects running around getting into all sorts of trouble will be a distraction for her. Do not worry for yourself, this is a chance to hone your skills! They will provide plenty of easy body-checking and pecking practice. More importantly, they will be small and easily controlled and will want to make friends. So you will get many hours of benevolent domination under your crop. Diana will be too busy to notice as you maneuver and gain their support for your eventual coup! She may even thank you.

Yours in plotting,
Hazel

Well played!

OMG I thought of something......chicken letter and advice to each other.

I suspect, if it doesn't get hit again this winter, that they will be fine. I am pretty sure that ?Minnie? Dotty? points that looked the 'pale/swollen' like this eventually recovered, and only the one with the real blackened tip lost part of it. Maybe @RoyalChick can confirm.

It does look like a fair amount, but, again, it seems relatively mild in terms of depth of damage.

I sure hope you are correct.

 

[BY Bob]

Oh poor girl. And poor you.
It doesn’t look too severe though she might lose some tips.

I'm trying to remember how much your hen wound up losing. Just the one tip, right?
