MJ's little flock

[MaryJanet]

That sucks. I hope he finds something soon.

The wait would be very hard for people who don't have family to rely on.

He will be fine, there's always work for chefs ... but hopefully not before all my handyman jobs are finished

That's a relief!

She's lovely. Look at those yellow legs!

Poor things. I too jump out of my skin when the thunder and lightning are nearby.

Are they 20 weeks old now? Or a bit younger?

Just 14 weeks today.
Is 20 weeks significant?

No I just thought it felt like 5 months or thereabouts.

Let's not rush them to adulthood. They grow too fast as it is.

No. But I don't mind earning an F in estimating the age of chickens. It shows me I've got more to learn

Well they are getting big. Look at them compared to Babs.

They're going to be quite large hens once they're fully grown! I wonder if any will turn out rolypoly like Mary?

They still have quite youthful faces. I really should've known they weren't yet 20 weeks.

I think Tassels - who is standing next to Babs facing to the right is going to be very large and fluffy. Not sure about the others.

This is a test post of me trying to share a video by attaching it.

It's a fun video of the team being alarmed over nothing I could see. No hawks. No dogs. No foxes. No pelicans, bin chickens, or ducks flying by.

Apparently they were just alarmed, although I'm sure there was a reason beyond my ken.

Also Edie's high pitched call cracks me up

I hope the video attachment works.
