Ribh's D'Coopage

I am happy to share with you if need be.

I have one pot left here. I have to get it sent from the UK!

I think I may have an undisclosed obsession.
After my computer died I had a bit of experimenting with other Linux operating systems. I keep a bookmarks back up html file which I move form operating system to operating system.
I made the silly mistake of deciding that my bookmarks needed thining out and organizing. I discovered I have 164 chicken related bookmarks!
I have 2 relating to clothing and 3 related to cooking.
I'm booking myself into rehab tomorrow.

I may have to join you. My propensity for derailing my own thread amounts to genius!

Happy to help. ☺ Etsy has some really lovey ones but the cost of shipping from the States is more than double what the egg cups are worth so I refrained.

I may just consult with you before purchasing! Thanks for the offer.

You may want to consult with Shad. He makes some lovely ones!

They were back @ it this morning.
To add disgrace to their sins Wrold had tossed out the egg that was in the nest & ate it. The evidence was all over her beak!!! And the nearly empty shell was just outside the nesting box. I'm hoping it was an accidental break due to an in nest squabble & not something more deliberate.

They are both now in the small coop cooling their nether regions!

Very naughty girl! Unless of course, if it broke accidentally, why let it go to waste? Right? She was recycling and keeping her energy up.

Yes, she's a Golden Campine & should be laying a small to medium egg. Instead she has gone for the larger size. She is considerably larger than the Silvers so I guess it's ok...?

As long as she is bigger I wouldn't worry.

 

[BY Bob]

It's my fault, Bob. A squab is a small pigeon but I have confused it with a similar word referring to small fish & now I can't find the quote so can't totally sort the mess out. At some point I will find it & there will be this totally random post...

I'm looking forward to that. I got so confused. Not that it takes a lot these days.

They are chronic!
At least there was a Campine egg under Wrold this morning, which makes more sense
but why they are suddenly nesting together I do not know.

I find it adorable. Though my broody experience this year was not good, so I don’t envy you.

Here is my grumpy RIR Raelynn...she starts before I even get the nesting box door open! I love her spiky doo!!!

That is one cute broody!
