I got some pics! I know they aren't the greatest cause it's dark, but they'll do for now. I'll try to get some better ones tomorrow!

This is Chavatzelet (means lily in Hebrew), I call her Chava for short. She is sitting on her 2nd batch of eggs this year. She started out sitting on 25 eggs (AMAZING for a small little 5 pound hen!), and she now has 23 eggs left. I candled her eggs the other night and 2 of them were infertile.
Chava had the bright idea of nesting in a messy corner next to a styrofoam board, and chewing it to bits and pieces to line her nest with. That is a very Muscovy-ish thing to do!

This is Yasmin (means Jasmine in Hebrew). She is also working on her 2nd nest this year. Yasmin and Lilach (another of my Muscovy hens) are both laying eggs in the same nest. So far they have 17 eggs in the nest. Yasmin is already showing signs of broodiness, but I'm hoping her and Lilach will sit on the nest together. This is last batch of eggs I'm going to let my Muscovies brood this year. Winter will be here before I know it, and I can't believe it's already August!
