Reds and dark orange looks pretty too

I like those as well but the dusky colours make a nice change.

You and I agree on that. I prefer snakes for sure.

There are just so many things to hate about ticks. I don't like parasites, the only exception being mistletoe.

HAPPY CATURDAY, FOLKS!

I think I have been unconsciously influenced by @Blazinga 's art.

Fantastic AC. You've managed to make them not too cute.

She finds the little chickens irresistible but is completely untrustworthy around them.
I have to watch her like a hawk but she is getting better.

@Marie2020: I think you might have posted on the wrong thread ~ though Alex does visit occasionally. I don't mind but if you're wondering why no response from Alex...

Same bush, different tribes at different times. Cillin with Tackle and Hurry.

Notch with Donk, Myth and Knock.

Those are some very pretty hens there. I love Donk, Myth & Hurry! Such pretty colouring.

I had planned to put these 3 back in the coop last night but the children were here till quite late so all the things I needed to do to make that happen never happened. I can't do anything with the girls while they're here as they invariably want to help & it's help I can do without. The Vorwerks have made even helping put down feed tubs pretty impossible. I have 1 who spooks @ going back in the coop no matter who is doing it & yesterday I lost her completely once the kiddies had spooked her.

A day or so probably doesn't matter @ this stage but Ceres has been out of the coop for nearly a month. Olivia just doesn't like running with the big girls. I get it. They just stampede over the top of her. Desdemona's eye has been the hold up & I didn't want her in where the Big Girls might peck @ her eye. However Olivia has figured out how to open the cage door & I find her randomly roosted about the bathroom.

I finally caught up with my vet & got the fecal float results; no surprises there. I am no longer seeing any blood in the poops of my inside girls ~ though some are still quite watery. There is the occasional spotting in the big coop. Pretty sure it's Portia so I will have to dose her. And the worm treatment arrives with the vet on Tuesday. Hurrah. As most of the flock is now moulting the sooner that's done the better!

Oh, & to complicate matters it is raining ~ AGAIN!
