...when there was a sudden whirr of wings & a gentle thump on my back! I would never have guessed! The chicken least likely!!!
Excuse the messy hair. I've lost my hair tie somewhere.

She's so tiny in comparison!
That's good news!Deana seemed fine today. Eating as usual, no limping.
I picked her up to check her crop and vent. Crop soft and vent clean. She did not like being held.
How does one check the soles of the chicken foot? Her feet seemed fine from what I could see and feel but couldn't figure out how too look at the bottom of them by myself.
She is sleeping on the perch tonight.
She came running to see if I had anything good to eat in my mug.

I have a few boxes of stuff too and I'm hoping to have a couple more...so much stuff!I have got rid of 4 big boxes of stuff so far.
Actually, the boxes are still in the back of the car. All the second hand shops are closed for lockdown at the moment.
A two headed chickenIt never ceases to amaze me who ends up on the top roost.
Poor old Beatha has been relegated to the 2nd row unless I intervene but Portia [no surprises there; she is a Wyandotte after all] has been a top rail girl for over a month now. No~one disputes her right to be there. The surprise is Chavi, the smallest & most timid of my Japs. Her right to be there is disputed. She generally seeks Portia's protection but she won't be put of, not even by Wrold's ferocious pecking.

Olivia is allowed to roost on the top rail if she wants but I have noticed she really hates being caught up in the general melee & if there's too much pushing & shoving will seek the quieter 2nd rail While Desdemona roosts, in, on, or under a Vorwerk.

And Luna, who is Chook of the week this week, buddied up with Ha'penny again. Such an odd friendship! Soda roosted early, thank goodness. If she leaves it too long there's not much room for her bulk & she comes crashing down like a cannon ball plummeting to the bottom of the sea!

The Vorwerks have been terribly flighty around me to date. Far worse than the Campines ever were & everything I read about them said they were friendly.She is very cute!
I love when my chickens do this!
It's taken nearly 6 months but it seems we are now @ the friendly stage. 
I did a big throw out when we did our kitchen too because I hate to cook & pared it down as much as I could. I refused to have overhead cupboards ~ or corner cupboards ~ places I couldn't reach where stuff gets lost & just accumulates.I have a few boxes of stuff too and I'm hoping to have a couple more...so much stuff!
My Littles really are tiny when compared to the standards ~ but I have big, dual purpose standards.She's so tiny in comparison!
Campines are such a nice compromise. Nice medium sized bird that lays a nice medium sized egg. 
Are they laying or close to it? I was very surprised by how much friendlier my pullets were once they reached point of lay. It was like a switch was flipped.The Vorwerks have been terribly flighty around me to date. Far worse than the Campines ever were & everything I read about them said they were friendly.
I have 1 I think has started laying & the others are close. Yes, I find the girls settle heaps once they start laying. They stop being obnoxious teens & become mature matrons ~ with the exception of @ least 1 Campine who is completely & utterly feral.
