Looks like we were doing the same thing this morning

.........in similar weather!!


The flock out scratching in the leaf litter and enjoying the 40F weather

Very nice, Mary. The weather does appear to be the same.

Mike, Do any of the cockerels have a rose comb?

He is from Husatoftir. He's yours if you want him, not certain how to get him there though.

Sunna is fine. She spent most of the day on my bed. I told my wife we are going to need to get an old blanket for our bed, and put the quilt my mother made away, just to be safe, until these puppies arrive.

Mike, that is a mighty handsome blue boy! I agree with Diva that he is striking.

I am torn. I need to whittle down my roosters, and I keep going back and forth on my one roo who likes to crow at all hours of the night. He's got the IQ of a bag of rocks and I'm sure the neighbors are tired of his crowing. On the opposite hand, he is a different bloodline from my two senior roos, and his shape is very nice. And with none of my hens laying, I can't possibly get some chicks sired by him at the moment.
