Ooohhh, so funny... and so cute!Lottie is waxing plump & despite her tiny size is not right @ the bottom of the pecking order. That honour is reserved for Soda & Patricia/Penny.
So yesterday Lottie showed signs of wanting to be in the outside pen with the big girls. She finds getting out the gate slightly problematic as she has to jump up but she was determined & I am happy for her to have some time in the bigger run. The Campines are not. They are getting really ratty about being the only convicts marooned in the Coop run. However Lottie is naughty. She never stays in the run. There must be somewhere she is getting under the wire because every time I let her out I invariably find her standing in the garden beside the coop staring fixedly into space obviously zonked out on Basil fumes. She never wanders away. She never strays from the coop. She doesn't cause any damage [unlike some others I could mention!] but she will not stay in the run. I thinks she does it because she can. She will find herself on defaulters today too.

Good thing she is cute... right!?
Our temperatures plummeted suddenly after all the rain & it is bitter outside, especially with all the cold air coming up off the water. I must say all the girls are handling it well ~ even enjoying it, including Namaste, who is still terribly threadbare. I keep reminding myself this is how nature designed them & it is a lot colder in some climates where they do this than it is here. I shall be happy when it is over just the same!
