Today was clean out the coop day ~ partly because it is wet & windy & the used sugar cane mulch goes down in the coop run to soak up the moisture & stop the slushies & the smellies.. I suspect Wrold is going broody on me again.

Not sure what Patricia thinks she is doing. Neither girl moved as I waved a rake round wildly right under their noses & tossed in the fresh mulch.
I then redid the fly thingy. I've no idea what's in the concoction but it seems to work pretty well.
Feed tubs down early because I have fed the Littlies in the little coop today. It is too nasty for me to sit out & supervise operations & the Big Girls seem to be having some internal issues @ present. Beatha is on the outer & Morrigu is stirring up trouble for the heck of it. Both Wrold & Alpia seem to be having issues with the Campines that they have always got along brilliantly with until now.

It's all been a little unsettled since Lavender died & Soda went broody @ the same time. The lieutenants didn't want to become commanders which left the lower ranks running the ship ~ meaning the mad Campines! I do not want my Campines in charge. They are nut jobs!
Luna gets stressed if she has to lead, Hepzibah goes into denial & Ha'penny is erratic. They are all really good @ helping Soda but Soda is the big calm mamma who keeps things on a steady, even keel. Adding in the Littlies has not helped but they are not the problem. I am not having integration problems.
At present it's evens between BRs & Campines with Luna trying to keep the peace between the waring parties. I don't think she's having much success...
