Late mug, with a question.

This is Little. She is a 3 yo Black Australorp, with some strange white feathers by her eye and comb. She has them on the other side too.

Is my baby going grey?

Very distinguished looking - I have a similar thing going on!

COPD and hypertension have been taking its toll on me. I’m going to hospital tomorrow for tests

Any news/results from the hospital visit today?
@ValarieF : did you have your endoscopy today, too? Any news?

Health discussion tax:

Two girls attacking the pine needles (or do the two parts only count as one??)

2 'blondes" ( and a gratuitous BR) devouring pine needles.

Yea the said my stomach was inflammed, I have a lesion they took a biopsy of and a few more other places they took biopsy. I have a unusually narrow esophagus so they put in a balloon because I choke easily on food and drinks. I will go over biopsy results in a month with my digestive dr. But usually I can get them ofline before then.

I am looking forward to seeing your SHRA tax.

And just in case, here is my 'tax collector tax': my ladies positioned fluffy butt to fluffy butt so they could dig dirt and leaves all over each other.

Looks like pin feathers (new feathers coming in).

It is ok, I have a possible 19 eggs due to hatch very soon. I too shall have your odds except backwards. My luck, 18 boys 1 girl.

Did you try @BY Bob 's suggestion of chilling the eggs first? Remember he said 10% increase in pullets from the eggs with that. That way you would be up to 2 girls!



(actually, it would mean 3 girls if you would have gotten 1, because out of 19 eggs, 10% would be 1.9, so 2 additional ones would be pullets.)
