I don't know, Mrs BY Bob it's pretty good at it.

I tease but you are doing the right thing.

I was just talking to Mrs BY Bob this morning about what an odd chicken Aurora is. Such the polar opposite of her sister. She has been with me well over a year now. I cannot touch her without inducing abject terror. She is so strong and fights so hard when held that I am always fearful that I am going to hurt her. She has been this way since day 1. I have given up. I don't believe that she will ever warm to being touched.

Does she accept treats from your hand? That was the thin end of the wedge with Mary. I also exploited her brooding to gently touch her under her chin where she could see what I was doing. That might've been the breakthrough.

 

[MaryJanet]

Bring them on. I'm even feistier today. Yesterday was not what it was supposed to be and my attitude is not better.

People better buckle up today.

Hmmm... Let me see. I usually don't have any problems saying things that are a bit wonky. So I could just do a normal Saturday and trust my innate silliness will provide. Or I could try to come up with a plan...

That's a good shot of her Bob. I'm slowly getting used to the idea of bearded hens.

As a look, I quite like it. If it comes with a robust genetic profile, all the better.

The chickens roamed all the way to the brush pile yesterday, further than they'd ever been before. Evdently, it was worth the effort because they were fascinated and kept busy for at least three hours.

 

[Grammy60]

Good morning MJ how are you ?

They'll be making nest in there before long.
