It’s still Monday somewhere.
I haven’t been taking many photos lately, been busy so just enjoy the little time I get with the girls 💜
Here’s some from this morning ☺️

I love Belle’s colours, she’s getting so many more spots as she grows, a lot more white through her, even on the tips of her tail feathers now.
I've forgotten Belle's breed Scrambles, but those look like mille fleur spots to me. Very pretty!
 
Just going by the girls' reaction I knew I was onto something good 😉
I am going to do that tomorrow - it will be 95 so definitely worth trying to get it cooler. I am sort of happy to find that the Chicken Palace tends to be a degree or two cooler than outside because it is in shade and with a good breeze wet ground will help a lot.
 
I've read (perhaps it was one of Shad's drops of chicken wisdom) that because predation is part of life for chickens, they evolved to have a sort of shutdown when attacked and they go from Ok to coma very very quickly when a predator grabs them. It's why they're so easy to "hypnotise". If that's true, she would not have felt much terror at all, only deep sleep. I hope this thought is a comfort for you, it was for me.
I had not read that or heard that before. That helps a little. Thanks for sharing that tidbit.
