Mojo Chick'n :
Oh btw - I have not seen Jr. all day - and I haven't had any eggs from her in few days - I know she sometimes sleeps under the house, I wonder if she's sitting on eggs under there. She had been laying in the coop - but not this week at all.
Oh, and I found 5 eggs in that dang duckhouse
stoop!d chickens been laying in there, and I never thought to look. It's been Shug, mostly (like mother like daughter, I guess) and one other hen.
No wonder I haven't had as many eggs lately. That explains George's coop - still doesn't explain Mr. Speckles's coop.
Oh and the girls found a few mice today - it was like the Super Bowl playing out in the Donkey Pasture
.
The ducks love their new coop (all to themselves, well, them and the quail). Before I was even done working in there, they came in and claimed it. I put down some fresh bedding for them, and the big waterer and their food. Now I got plenty of room for the new ones coming tomorrow, and they won't be messing up the chicken coop so badly.
I was afraid I'd have to talk them into using that coop - but they wouldn't leave and get out of my way while I was putting up the quail cage. I'm happy I didn't have to try to chase them in.
Oh and Jon is off tomorrow, so no worries on time-frame getting home as much.
I bet she is setting, she's gonna show you how it's done!!
There is a bit of a time restraint for me, since Cris gets home from school around 3:15. Dad's here, but I'm not sure I trust him to remember to get Cris off the bus!
Maybe I'll just let him skip school tomorrow? It's not like he
has to go, but I need a break!
