I'd love to see a photo of him sleeping sometime.

Someday I will get a compatible camera/phone

Meet the Chicks

As i mentioned the other day I have named the chicks. I thought that I should share their names. You already met Dusty under tragic circumstances. Here are the others.

Ned

Lucky

And possibly the only clear picture I have of all three from 2 days ago.

Yep, He's a rooster no doubt! He started crowing just now. But that's ok, so are the others outside!

Jaffar's crow is short and sweet, (but loud)

Egg Hunts and Weird Nests

Between all the COVID free range time and this whole hatching chicks thing i now have messed up egg laying. The nesting boxes are really only used by Hattie and Aurora now. Phyllis had given up on them quite a while ago. She almost exclusively uses the brush pile. Now Sansa is using the nest Lilly built for her on top of the pool shed.

I know I am missing eggs as well. No one laid in the coop on the day the chicks hatched. Either they did not lay or I have not found that nest yet. I was a little distracted that day.

I love history - we have rather a lot of it in the UK - but I am woefully ignorant about the history of the native American Indians. Was a particular tribe found in PA?

This is a quick map I found online. There were several tribes in PA, as you can tell. I live in the area the Susquehannock lived in.

I'm pretty sure BLU still has the hot's for Phyllis. He keeps crowing on and on about her.
(If I'm reading his crowing correctly)
