Love that video - it is a great age so fun! I like how Alice empties the food bowl by scratching it all out and then Edwina is on clean-up duty! Alice was a looker even at that messy stage. :love

That is very....generous of you to say so. 😅
I always think it is a rather unlovely, awkward stage. Especially when they were so cute just a few weeks before! 🤣
 
So Russ is grounded, and for that matter so is Drumstick. Russ is smart, and can let himself out of his stall if he wants. He got half out a few months ago so now the boards are tied in place. He still plays with them trying to get them down but you know when he's doing it as he makes a lot of noise while doing so. Total silence outside this morning and I'm focused on what's going on in the incubator when I get a phone call. It's one of my neighbors asking if I was aware we had a horse out. Run outside and there is Russ, in the side yard happily eating grass with Drumstick and all his girls around him jumping up and catching any flies they could that landed on his legs. When he spotted me Russ walks right up to me and I toss the dog leash around his neck and lead him back into his stall no problem. It would not have been so easy if it had been Louis or Dirt that got out. Drumstick is in trouble because he could have crowed his fool head off so I would come out and saw what was up. But no, he was Russ's partner in crime. Both boys have been informed no afternoon treat time today, although I do not think they believe me.

I predict a molt in her near future. My lavenders look like this right now. They both also have the feather shredder gene that lavender carries.
 
Hen-rietta decided to follow me into the house. I de DAB8BEBD-45D7-4472-89CB-FB0DF88D5599.jpeg cided to spend some time with my best laying hen.
