raised bed near the fruitstand has been weeded and planted. 2Raised beds at the garden have been weeked of the big thorny weeds. now need to till it. need fuel... to end my day. i collected eggs. and watched as the chickens chased this one who caught a mouse. i wonder if that is how some dinosaurs acted...
my back hurts from bending over the raised beds all day..... need a nice soak. and i'm only 20.....
how ticked will a broody be if i moved its nest from under the roosts (where they poop) and into a separate cage, so when the chicks hatch the rest of the flock wont kill them.....
broody hen question # 2 if a hen is successfully broody, why is it still laying eggs? ( i have since marked the incubating eggs and remove the unmarked eggs to eat) -sigh- i do not know how you guys do it. if i had an incubator i would be incubating all the time and i would have no family left.... so yeah.... 60 chickens with 15 eggs on the way... and all are fertile.... it will be interesting what crosses it will be.... some of my hens are double teamed by the roo's.......
