I made these little 'low cover' things with pallets that they seem to really love. It does NOT keep them from flying over the fence, though - I cannot wait til they are too chonky to do that, a couple already are lol

So that's 6/6 yesterday - this morning (I go in to clean the poop tables every morning at 8am) Toffee had already laid one and all the ladies were lining up again at the nest boxes.

They work so hard!! I'm so proud of them <3
 
Zero today!

We stayed just above freezing yesterday and today, and no cold nights forecast in the foreseeable future :)
It’s warming up here thankfully!

Today I found 12 eggs, then while cleaning my injured hens crate I found a nice blue egg she laid. She has either a dislocated hip or fractured the femur off the ball joint. A Vet visit would be over $800 so that’s not an option.

Thankfully her leg is aligned and she can scratch her face, pick up her leg and move it forward. If it wasn’t for the clunking noise her hip makes I would just say a bad tendon/ligament tear. Could still be that also making a loose joint.

Anywhoooo she is on crate rest with limited time out of it to eat and socialize with the gang. She is a calm wee thing and is doing well.
