Where did they come from???

You could write a book about your journey. Accumulate everything you've bin through. Day 1, this thread, the highs and lows, the expected & unexpected etc. Look at individuals who wrote & some made movies about their journeys with birds or animals. In this case feathered family members. It's just an opinion, but with what you've bin through, I'd it's something to think about. :idunno

Let me tell you...after my journey, I have an all new respect for the book "Enslaved by Ducks"...lol
 
Oh...and Mr. King has been bumping uglies with all the girls now...so I'm guessing they are all about due to lay some eggies. I'm really looking forward to seeing what color eggs Fancy plops out. :)

Ya know, 'bumping uglies' is a perfect and accurate description of what they do. :gig

Can't wait to see what your egg basket turns out like.
 
So far so good with Bashful's eggies! I've been getting them daily, an hour later than the day before. :) All the same size with very little variation in color. First one was lighter than the other days, but that's about the only difference.

Some strange goings on though with the laying of the eggies...

** Bashful runs down the ramp to the run...pecks about for a little bit then makes a made dash back up the ramp. Then does the Goldilocks trying out the bears' beds thing in each nest box...runs in one, scrunches around, runs out...goes to another one...scrunches about...run out...goes to the next one...then runs down the ramp...scratches...runs back up. Repeat.

** Then...after about 20 rounds of the above routine...King joins in the craziness. He goes in the dang nest box with her. Then he leaves and goes to another box. Coos a bit, then Bashful comes tearing out of the box she's in to go to the one King is in. They do this about a dozen or so times...

** Then...after the above 2 routines take place the rest of the clan joins the craziness. They all go into the coop and spectate...sometimes one will try to go into the box with Bashful and King...or stand directly at the box opening.

When all is said and done, Bashful has been laying in the same box everyday....

Oh...no egg song. :( So....just for poops and giggles, while hanging in the run with them...I played a Youtube video "The loudest egg song ever".... King...is the only one to sing along. :lau

These dang chickens crack me up....I love them. :love
I read this whole posting and some thoughts cross my mind. Could your chickens secretly be listening to some Disco Music on their Chicken Ipods??? You provide everything for them, so why would you stop short..

Here is what I suspect they are listening to. Even I like these tunes. :old
