Daily news. Beethoven-Hen was having a sneezing attack, and I brought her in (Wasn’t easy) and pulled out a small feather from her nose. Granted, I love this leghorn, and she’s very special to me too! View attachment 2641547
Has she done a poop on that lovely cream throw? Quick grab a tissue :wee
 
Ok fluffy butt friends, I need some opinions. Squirrel and her brother turned 5 weeks old. Until today I was fairly confident Squirrel was a pullet. Now, I'm not so sure. Her coloring seems girlish, but....her comb. Being a Marans x Orpington mix I fully expect a large comb but is that too much for a 5 week old? Like expected her brother being a full Marans let the world know he was a boy at 2 1/2 weeks when his wattles popped, but this is my first time with Marans mixes. Here are some pictures I just took. What do you all think, is Squirrel a boy or girl?

Boy I reckon
 
Oh! I'd also like a Butter update @RebeccaBoyd
Butter is doing wonderful. She's not ready to be outside full time yet, and when she is will have to be separated from the others for a bit as I do not want the boys to reinjure her. She can get up and walk around for a few minutes but is then tired and has to rest for about 3 hours or so before her next walkabout. She also has a limp but it is getting better daily. She laid her 3rd egg earlier today as well. Its going to take time, but I'm happy to give her all she needs.
