I think chickens are smarter than people give them credit for. Marmalade, my darling golden Belgian, will flutter up to the edge of my bowl of bread when it's treat time so that she can help herself in peace. They will find comfy wood shaving nest spots. They're fairly intelligent!

As far as broody hens go, for me I move them into a wire dog crate that can be set up inside the coop. Just enough room to get up and stretch, eat and poo. I have only had issues moving one of my broodies last summer, but I did it during the day. So I tried again at night and she was fine.
It is so cute to watch a momma and her chicks walking around the yard. I can't wait until these 8 eggs hatch.

If you lived in my neighborhood I'd come over and just sit for hours watching! I'm so jealous of those that have hens with chicks!

Hey guys !
How was your Christmas' ?
We are trying to get the rest of the trusses built, but as soon as the guys took the tarp off...it started in raining again............
Looks like Sun-Thursday will be decent though.
So they guys cut more truss lumber to size, stacked it up & went home...........

darn rain.
Everything else is fine, I am doing PT as well as patchworking the quilt for my daughter.
patchin'.......cutting, sewing, ironing & so on.
It has been decent enough temps to plant a bed of greens in the green house....an experiment.
last year it was too cold, this year it may work.

Hope you are all doing good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
