Holy cow! This is my worst nightmare! I am waiting for some 6 ft poles to add more bird netting to the extension I made to the run and every time I let the silkies out in the new run area I feel like a helicopter momYeah. The hawks/falcons here can be pretty bold, but they haven’t been that bold in a while. I’m just glad we were out there, otherwise it definitely would’ve gotten her. :/



I sat with the chickens this morning and tried to enjoy them while I have them. I am learning each day is precious with chickens because they can be gone so quickly :-(
Betty is indeed broody, but I’m not sure she has figured out what it takes to be a dedicated broody. She left the eggs I tried to give her and is sitting on new ones…I’m also not certain that Puff has figured out how to properly do the deed as a few we cracked open were not fertile. I also wonder if Puff might be fertile at all. He’s small and might be infertile. Fluff is finally coming into his own as well, so maybe some day but not with Aria Jr eggs :-(
Puff and Fluff are such good boys though, I love them
