I had to go see what Jaffar was up to just now. (Crowing his Cochin head off) He stopped, and jumped off his designated perch, onto my lap for some warm snuggling.(He likes to peck at my glasses too) BLU was already out in the run, but the girls had not left their perches yet. I just held Jaffar a while, (Until Rocks-Anne sent me down a morning greeting) yuck. right on my jacket.:sick Too much FYI? Sorry.
The girls perch in the rafters of the barn/coop 8ft up.
Wow - how do they get down from 8ft up?
 
This morning’s carry-on

I didn’t get anything done for about 20 minutes this morning; I was in and out of the house like a yo-yo!

Three nesting-boxes, one favourite. At least your girls will share, @Ribh! :rolleyes:

If Pearl doesn't get the box she wants...and yes she wants it all to herself...she will just go out and lay it on the ground...because that's better than the remaining boxes? :confused::gig

Last night was a busy but ultimately unrewarding battle in the epic war between RC and the Rodents.
The scores at the end of the night were RC 1 : Rodents 1 : Cats 1
The cats made an unexpected last minute entry by getting a mouse inside the house, and the Rodents scored with a mouse that partied on the breakfast bar and avoided all traps even though his/her brother/sister was tempted by the peanut butter with scratch-grain garnish and delivered RC her only success of the night.
Maggie renewed her interest in fresh mouse steak.
I just love these updates. Hopefully I can join in soon.
 
That's the thing, she isn't mean, that's part of the problem, She only does it to Clover, and leaves Dandy alone! Also, sometimes it appears that their are fighting to be top of the pecking order.
Did you see my hen fight video? That was a fight over position in which the hen above was unwilling to vacate. A lot of the other pecking which occurs are reminders that "you are below me" not necessarily challenges to positions.
