I want to give the @micstrachan types another hour or so. How about 11pm Brisbane time?

Goodness, I need to read what we’re talking about here.

With Everything Else Going on Today Someone is Broody

They have about 8 or 9 eggs under them. Let's see if you can guess who.....

Oh, I have to guess your broody!!! Don’t tell!!!
Hmmm... the only off behavior I can think of makes me say Aurora. She spent one night in a nest box recently. I may be forgetting something, as keeping up during the work week can be challenging. When do we find out?

No probs, I can wait until the morning our time, I’ll be turning in soon I still anticipate the answer

Ok I am extending the voting deadline until 7 am Brisbane for people in the US who have not yet checked in.

I had an experience tonight.
Since the afternoon I buried Bok, I haven’t sat with her. Each morning when I walk past I greet her (good morning old lady) and each evening I tip my hat to her and say goodnight on the way inside after closing the coop.
Tonight after closing the coop, I sat on the edge of the concrete next to her ‘paver’. As soon as I started talking to her the tears came. I spoke to her about what I appreciated she did for the pullets, that I hoped she was at peace and that I hoped Penny had found her and they were causing mischief together wherever they were (how did I devolve to beliefs of my 5 year old?) I allowed for my feelings to go on for a bit before I reigned it in and resumed mum life

Awww... very sweet. Thank you for sharing. These feathered friends get deep into our hearts, don’t they?

These moments are so healthy and good to have. The grief is real. Trust me as I am dealing with it right now. Good for you.

Lol...so they did find one. And they had no idea what to do with it. Looked at it cockeyed, pecked a little and then walked away.
Hubby says he guesses they strive to be vegetarians.

Phyllis would like hanging out with them. She loves worms.

They raised the price for my aviation fuel. I’m pissed off! Now, $45 US dollars to just take off for a simple hop. I’m planning on flying today anyways.
