Yeah, she came out from under the coop on her own accord. Once she did, I blocked all the access points with rocks and dirt. Scared the crap out of me since each one are like my children.
Wish everyday were like today, even though it's overcasted at the moment. Temps are pleasant with a slight breeze.
Spent the better half of the morning searching for one of my ISA Browns, Lady, who had apparently gotten out of the coop last night. There were no holes in the fencing or...
We finally bit the bullet and turned on our central air this evening. We usually wait until later on in the season, but all 3 of our dogs were panting.
We have 12 acres and I wind up building separate coops/runs for the ones that I rescue. I try and keep the males separated from the females to avoid conflict...but do keep a single male in with them.
I really cannot tell the sexes of my Pekins or Rouen ducklings quite yet. All I know is that I need to get off my butt and finish off the coop that I am building for them so that I can move them out of my garage. Have I mentioned that they really are messy and stink?
