MJ's little flock

Roosting time.

Sorry for the mayhem, when Martha misjudged her landing and made Nancy squeal, my composure failed

I think so! They're very happy little things. Confidence is growing all the time.

An hour ago, I had Hilda on my right shoulder like a little black parrot softly chattering into my ear, Martha on my left knee, and Nancy on my right knee with Nelly! I was very surprised when Nelly jumped up, she doesn't like being touched and nor does she like touching me. I guess the knee doesn't count?

Yes! You are an acceptable roost. No better compliment.

So adorable!

There are quite a few poops under the heat plate this morning. Seems it had some use overnight.

The neightbours left a sunflower head on my front porch for the hens, which was very kind of them. Unfortunately, the hens don't know what to do with it! I've been pulling the seeds out for them and trying to show them where the seeds come from, but so far they haven't caught on.

I had to teach mine as well. Somehow they know to eat them but not where they come from.
