Outside my kitchen window just now.

That so makes me miss the wild Turkeys from when I lived downstate.

Nope Mike, she just got her eggs on the 15th! She's been sitting on infertile Marans eggs that I keep taking from her for a couple of weeks or more.

So she's in the Cinco de Mayo hatch a long, rather than the Easter Hatch.

13 are out now. Note to self: Be careful hatching olive eggers with barnevelder daddy's in with barnevelders.

Barnevelders:


Olive egger. She will be blue - mom is splash. In Barnevelders, blue doesn't show up until the wing feathers come in. Thank goodness for fluffy cheeks!

Eyes closed. Not looking. Don't need anymore chickens...la...la...la...la

Spent some time cleaning the yard of dog bombs, which are now melting out of the snow. Found the first spring flowers, a beautiful clump of purple crocus. I would have taken a picture of them, but one of the dogs pooped right on top

(you know, I never realized just how complex that little grumble face smiley is!)
