What made you happy today?

The rooster was SS too? Wow! Good luck!

That's what it looked like. Mix of Easter Egger, Polish, and Sussex hens though.

They were literally crossing the street though. They did look to be in good shape and had a nice big coop.

Hmm. How would you be sure of getting SS eggs? And what is your Agathae?

I guess I'd be gambling, which I'd be OK with.

Agathae is a Cream Legbar. She switches to stupid mode at least once a year and tries to hatch wood.

She is also a brand promoter for Batty Ol' Hen's Broody Tincture and can be found on BeakBook with the username AgathaeTheSmart.

I love her! I have one that tries determinedly to hatch golf balls. Last year she and her sister, Atilla the Hen, "produced"* 21, a mixed batch of Black Australorps and black Ameraucanas. I called them the Thundering Horde bc I could not tell them apart for many months, lol.

*with a little help from me and Cackle Hatchery, of course!

I don't plan on putting that many under her. Two at most. She's tiny for a Cream Legbar.

Yeah, it's gonna get nasty for Michigan. My sister and family are heading to their cabin in the UP tomorrow(Sunday). They are leaving very early, to get there before anything hits. Brother in law is excited to do more snowmobiling.
Stay safe, Sally Peanut Butter!

Snowed in the UP - when well prepared, that's HEAVEN!

Definitely been in that situation.

I got to spend all evening with the boys and girls in the enclosed outdoor coop. Rain moved in rather quickly, and the temp dropped... and it started pouring. I was waiting to see if snow would fall

Kinda reminded me of how the blizzard of '78 started.

I am out and about today and that make me happy...sometime being at home a few days straight make me feel disconnected.

I had a thought about Christopher Robin and Winnie the poo, then I lost it. It was relevant at the time. Tut, tut, it looks like rain. more like raining cats and dogs (and chickens). Everybody is warm and dry.

While I was in the coop, my little GLW was complaining about something, so I let her cuddle up with me on the coop floor. I think she's missing my Black Australorp.

The GLW is a runt. No fault of her own.

For them, yes. They love snowmobiling. No doubt, they will be out all week. I wouldn't mind snow either, if no one had to drive in it
