It's a going. A little overcast here, with storms predicted tonight and tomorrow. I'm hoping we don't get flooded again.
I'm sitting out here in the coop doing the roosters job..breaking up hen spats. They all want in two of the nests. They broke an egg fighting over the favorite box. Not that we are going to go hungry, but I hate cleaning up the mess. There are 24 laying and they have 11 nest boxes to choose from.

That figures...11 nest boxes and they want the same 2 Nice batch of eggs!

That is the face of a very spoiled little man

It would be almost impossible to say 'no' to that face Chrissy (And it sounds as if he knows that!)

Good afternoon, folks, I worked myself to death today. I moved the coop, attached it to the swan enclosure, filled it with hay attached the run leveled everything. All the swans did was watch and do a little hanky panky every now and then. It was 62F and the water is about 35F I don't know how he could put his appendage in that cold water but didn't seem to bother him or her. They were dancing all around, wrapping their necks around each other. What a courtship dance to see. I'm so tired I can't hardly walk. Quite a bit of work for one person.

I guess swans enjoy people tv like we enjoy poultry tv. You got a lot done today Mark

He might not feed them yet, but he sure gets excited when he sees them through the window. I'm thinking he wants to see what feathers taste like.

Maybe he's already dreaming of drumsticks

I walked smack into the door header. I made it tall enough for Susie but not Mark. I swear those two swans were laughing when I fell in the dirty coop.

I have to get a shower I stink. Talk later.

That sounds like a very busy day indeed Mark. What are you prepping for?
