I will probably never catch up on this thread.

Don't worry about it. Just jump back in when you can.

She has a very elegant bearing in that photo.

Queen Rosa? So she the big BOSS at the top of the Pecking ORDER?

My Alpha hen used to be Biggie, now GreyWhite, even that's their real names, I still prefer to call Biggie "Biggie Piggie" (since that it rhymes and sounds quite funny) or "Bibbie Pibbie" (since that it also rhymes and also sounds quite funny), and Grey "Grey Grey" or "Grey Pay".

Xzit’s foot still hasn’t healed up completely yet. I watch her favor it (usually when she is running) but she always runs. Today I took another look at it, and there is still a bump on her toe.
I sprayed it with Vetericyn and let her join the others.

More Challenges Brewing

I spent some time watching Sydney very closely this morning. I am getting concerned.

No Laughing @Ribh !

I think Sydney is about to go broody. she is pancaking on the ground and starting to tut tut around a bit. It is very similar to what happened last year right before she decided to set. Hopefully Phyllis' experience will be a deterrent to her. I don't know that I can lose another nest box........

Here is Sydney not looking pre-broody.

Queen Rosa? So she the big BOSS at the top of the Pecking ORDER?

Nope, that role falls to Annie my Australorp. (Queen) Rosa is in that grey middle of the pack zone where they know how they stack up, but I can't figure it out!
Sometimes I wonder if they giggle to each other and mix up who pecks whom so much just so that I will never figure it all out!!
