Uh oh, I have a black australorp I have been concerned about. She isn't widening in the pelvic area at all.

She's 25 weeks today, give or take a few days.

I think I might have a roo?

I can't have a roo

*insert dirty words here, I really love "her"*

I guess I will be waiting for the crow any time now. She is getting quite the comb and wattle.

Carp.

 

[Eggs4Sale]

Yeah, carp.
