So this is the front door of the crate. Where I suspect they got out. There is a board running along both sides and another wire panel like this one on the back.
Everyone seems happy and healthy. They have figured out she's their mamma.

So sorry for your loss Nunny :hugs:hugs:hugs

But I am thrilled the mama and babies are bonding so well. She seems really happy.
 
Oh my!!!!


Oh no!!! I am so sorry about the babies!!! I am so sad for you.

I remember 2 stings. A yellow jacket in a drink can that stung me in the mouth and a wasp that flew into the bend of my arm as I was about to go down the water slide.

Henny gave the food a few pecks this morning. She is not eating enough though. I won’t be able to check in her until later and undecided if I need to force feed her or let her eat what she will.

Y’all have a good Saturday. It is cold, windy and wet here today!!!
My friends and i walked near a yellow jacket nest when we were wandering in the woods. Got stung like crazy! It is a wonder we lived. Never had medical attention for it either. Kids!
 
Yes, normal, but not what I want to see after a couple weeks of bloody poop.

I had the chickens out and a crow alerted us to the sneaky hawk. I really need to find a way to destroy the hawk nest in the front yard.
Thursday while I was working in my veggie garden and the girls were out and about nearby something BIG flew right over my head and swooped upward right over the coop and snatched a pretty big baby squirrel right out of its nest.
The baby was screaming, the momma was screeching and fussing, my birds were alerting.... but none of them were moving.
It was a loud hot mess.
The hawk took it too high up in a pine tree for me to do anything about it. I can’t throw anything that high!

I shepherded my birds into their closed run and had to go inside for a while.

The sounds were too sad.

I get that it’s nature and the hawks have to eat too but I wish they’d do it in someone else’s yard.

As far as my girls are concerned, how heavy a weight can a hawk carry?
I realize the impact alone can kill or mortally wound a chicken, but I’m not joking my girls are beasts .

I’m so angry that my crazy next door neighbor :he had all her trees cut down because it has really decreased the number of ravens and crows on my end of the street. :barnie:mad:
