Warning!

I did this in the spring - they were doing GREAT in our kitchen window - but on a sunny day I put them outside to get some sunshine.

When I saw a crow flying by with an egg in it's beak...I wondered, what the heck?

Yep - the crows had flown off with my starts.

I wonder what the neighbors thought of all the dirt filled egg shells they found?

I'm sure that was frustrating at the time. But, I gotta tell ya, thinking about that made me chuckle. That is pretty funny.

Just sharing some pictures that I took today.

Your birds are gorgeous!

My original Silkies are in the VF coop on the left.  Covered X-pen set up next to it for the next few days until I feel pretty certain everyone can live together peacefully.

Gotta say that I selfishly love that you still refer to it as "the VF coop" 

probably always will be.

I'm potty training William over the next couple days so I'll be here a lot. Can't really leave the house until he gets the hang of it! So far it hasn't been tough, but John was much much easier. Jeanine is still such a pill about wetting herself and she's ***4*** so I guess my boys are easier?! Weirdo's.

You have 1 in 3 chance someone's going to be a little pill. My youngest boy was my difficult child to train. My daughter trained early, then realized her twin brother still was having difficulty learning how, so she told me "He's not using the potty, so I'm not going to".

Lil' miss attitude! Yep, she stopped using the potty.

Just need to vent. It's been a rough day today- my son can't seem to go for 5 minutes without yelling "mommy! mommy! mommy!"

That's how I'm doing mine, too. Since the vents are wide open it's easy to do. I also added a saucer of water with a sponge in it when I took out the turner. The hygrometer says it's only 55%, but that seems to be as high as I can get it with the vents open.
