Time thieves

This is why I don't get anything done!

I think I just got cussed out by Xzit. I took her out of her box to eat, but she went “crazy hen” on me, and jumped back on her eggs. (Didn’t eat or drink anything) but wow can she have a temper!

Yep I have three like that

That wee silkie Marty growls like a Doberman!!! Hahaha

Far as I know, ceramic eggs won’t hatch. So maybe get chicks for her, or broody break her off (if possible)

Xzit stared me down and squawked “daddy, I’m not necessarily an herbivore, so give me some of that hamburger !”

I finished tearing apart the pallet so I have enough lumber for the roof of the Guinea house. My buddy Mike is coming to pickup 4 of the Guineas. Got some pig on the grill and some beer on ice, gonna be a good day

My two silkies were broody 6 weeks through Feb / Mar.... I dragged their butts off twice a day to eat and poop....

Finally one day Fluffy gave up, the next day Curly... I wasn't unhappy they stayed put though as it was frigid this year...

This past week Curly went 24 days....

Maybe you can do as (was it bgmathteach?) Suggested and give her 2 or 3 chickies. I suggest silkies - so cute and cuddly, easily prone to going broody.... Oh ... Wait.... Ok maybe not silkies
