Our Mixed Flock Journey!

Wrold is one of my tiny Wyandotte bantams.
All the girls from my last buy got Celtic names.
The Campines are Irish Queens: Morrigu, Aoife & Medh.
The Aracaunas are Scots: Beatha & Mhari.
The bantams got Pictish names as a sort of in archaeological/mythological joke:
Alpia & Wrold.
This is Wrold.

I love the names!:love I named my chickens with the first letter of the breed! My Sapphire Olive Egger was supposed to be a Marans, I never did think she was, her name is Madeline and it fits her, so I won't be changing it! She's beautiful! 💞
 
Cover your nest boxes at night if you dont want them in there
I can't get into the coop very easily right now as we have some temporary ventilation set up in the doorway because it's been so hot! I would have to disassemble it and put it back together! We will have a better set up next year. I could probably do something from the outside of the nesting boxes, but I wouldn't get out early enough to open it up for the ladies when they are ready for them!
 
I very occasionally get random eggs dropped in the coop or run ~ usually a beginning layer who hasn't quite got things worked out yet~ so I will take all sorts of nesting box antics over running the gauntlet after a stray egg. :lau
I'm dealing with the random egg issue, once in awhile I find one in the enclosed pen and sometimes on the floor of the coop! Just when I think they all have it figured out, they laugh and say fooled you! :gig

This is what I did to battle the summer heat then I have inserts that fit in the frame for winter my flock loves it
