Yes, I’m still alive. Lol
I am 800 pages behind, not sure I will ever catch up.
Chooks are all fine, although several aren’t feeling the greatest due to molting. The babies are getting huge! Integration has been going well. Although they still get tossed off if they dare try to get up on the top roost. They tend to start the night roosting on the landing bar in front of the nest boxes, and then migrate back into a pullet pile on top of their integration crate.
We adopted a dog on Saturday. He is supposedly a Belgian Malinois mix about 18 months old. So far he seems good around the chicks. Sniffed one of the babies when my husband held it while I held him on a leash, then walked off. Took him in the coop on a leash and he looked around but didn’t try to lunge/chase/play with them. Of course it will be a long time before we leave them together unsupervised, if ever.
I am probably getting a promotion at work and have been crazy busy. DH is still unemployed but on disability, and is trying to find a job before Dr releases him.
Here are a few random pics, I have taken a ton with the intention of posting them but never manage to get it done, lol.
Rufus, the new dog. Hard to get him to hold still long enough for a pic, will try to post a better one some time.
Had the girls do some pumpkin carving
After 45 minutes
After 4 hours, lol
Random baby pics

Their colors have developed even more in the week or so since I took those.
Hope everyone and their chooks have been doing well!!!
