Good evening scummy friends. Long afternoon, but I finally made it to our camp.

Hated to leave the house, my broody OEGB already has 4 out of 6 pips! I was refreshing her food for the weekend and she got off the eggs, so I got a good look at them. She's early! I didn't put them under her until a Sunday. Was hoping to be home for the hatch, but hubby had other ideas. :/

Going to a bridal shower tomorrow for my son's soon-to-be-wife. It's sad, I'll be thinking about my little broody the whole time :p

And...I lost another hen. Looks like a coon got her. Hubby found her this morning. It was either my black/lav split or the black. I think it was the black, but will have to confirm tomorrow. They were already roosting when I got here, so I couldn't tell for sure. :hit that one really makes me angry. But at least he caught and killed the coon too. Took 4 shots of a 9mm to the head for the thing to die!

X 2, but glad your DH got the raccoon. Hopefully you won't have any more losses!

I had a really busy day, too. Work was complicated and then I shoveled compost, went to the library, cleaned the chicken waterers, etc. Then cooked dinner, brushed the dogs, etc. I'm beat.

But it seems to be something you're pretty good at. I've got a bunch of pics of the two little guys but most are fuzzy cause the fuzzy duck moved.
