I was wondering if any of you have been in contact with Ali James. She used to post here but hasn't for some time. I've left a message on her profile page.

Not for ages. She seems to have stopped posting on her own thread also.

Oh I am sorry to laugh. Really that is the most adorable picture ever.
But my question is how can you tell? I mean how can you tell one end of that ball of fluff from the other.

I noticed her absence too. I hope she comes back.

They make for great fluffy butt pictures. There is a head @ the other end...

so, this is what’s up. Rocks Anne has been busy, and Beetov Hen has a sneeze problem. Jaffar has been screaming at me all day, BLU is hanging out under the porch. And I just returned from wallyworld with the soldier worms (As Promised)
These are Rocks-Anne’s ...

Moon and Treacle arrived again today; Fat Bird was in the nest box having thrown Mel and Hurry out. It's a bit of Fat Birds unfathomable behaviour. Fat Bird will visit the various nests sites of her tribes hens and she throws them out. To some she will do this repeatedly. Needless to say I have my theories.
Before Fat Birds arrival.

Fat Bird.

There was no way Moon was going to get into that nest box while Fat Bird was in it; I mean one just doesn't.
Moon went to investigate the maternity unit. Tackle had laid an egg in there earlier and I had two other eggs already in place as encouragement.
Moon had just got settled when Fat Bird turned up, with Cillin and threw her out. Fat Bird didn't sit in the maternity unit; she just went in and evicted Moon.View attachment 2037825
I went to feed the others their mid day feed and when I came back Moon was back in the maternity unit and Treacle was keeping guard.

They were there for a while and when I next saw them they were eating together. I also saw Moon crouch for Treacle.

On the other hand, Tap, Moons sister is not really getting the idea. I expect a couple of dropped eggs from pullets and I found Taps egg under the hay rack so she isn't even laying in the nest. That's at least five days now. The nest site she has chosen is not safe; not from predators and not structurally stable.

Moon and Treacle are just adorable
