Sneaky Pekin

I had nightmares about the lost baby all night. Sometimes I hate farm life.

@thumper650 you want ducklings if we end up with some?

I just adopted three more from MSPCA today, that's why I've not been on, but if you have extra ducklings I might be able to take a few!

 

[Miss Lydia]

What did you adopt. @thumper650 ?

 

[thumper650]

2 drakes, a mallard, a pekin and a female khaki Campbell. The pekin is visually impaired, but sees some. I've been working on their house all day. They're living in my shed for the night since their run isn't done.
I know the ratio is bad, but the shelter says they've been together for a long time. They'll obviously be seperated from my other boys.

Congrats!!

My hens like to go in an lay where one is sitting if broody will allow. Or maybe she just feels the need to give her some company. I think it's a sweet picture.

This is Beyoncé, my Buff Orpington. Liza isn’t upset about her being on the nest. They were actually kind of snuggled up before I started taking pictures. The eggs are intact and fine.

Okay, good. Yeah they both seemed completely content. Beyoncé is a very gentle hen.
