I gave Mama a bath and blow dry before I gave her the babies. I had just put the babies under her. She's so happy to have littles again!!!

It's nice to see you round again, CCCL. The chicks are gorgeous!

They look so miserable wet.

Haha! I wonder if I should try this with my two broodies?! ... I just might... I don’t feel like putting them in jail...

Not a good idea.

Yes I should be back to work around the 18th. Things have been good we've been working on projects around the house.

I want to name one of my new babies Hattie, but I feel it may be to confusing, so would Mrs. BY Bob allow one to be named Rose, after her?

Well worth a look is this thread. It makes a great change from Bufffeckinorpinigtons.
I couldn't help noticing that one of the hens in post 53 in the above thread looks a bit like Donk!
Kiaa knows his stuff about ancient breeds from his region.

He's a very interesting and knowledgeable man. It's a shame he gets such a poor reception.

What a shame. I've had time to look @ the thread this morning & such unusual birds. So much more interesting than all the sad hybrids there seem to be such a lot of.

You should have met my dad! He built a boat in our living room ~ then had to demolish 1/2 a wall to get it out! My mother was not best pleased...

I did threaten to ride it down the stairs and out the front door. I wouldn't have made it. The handlebars wouldn't have got through.
I might have but without the bike.
