[bgmathteach]

Oh my!
Mr. Chips and Geronimo did a thorough inspection of the nest boxes together. Cookie tagged along but didn’t go into them herself.

Wattles Wednesday, the only one here besides me with any wattles!

What a glorious coat he has!

Yes, but aren't all roos pretty spectacular? Do they all have the shiny over-feathers? Hackles and saddle feathers are really glossy!

As I have always said ”Roos need love too!”

Talk about a head up your @$%!

I agree with @rural mouse - she will lay whenever she is ready to lay! (at 13 weeks - or at 11 months like @RoyalChick 's Bernie!)

Ok then 25 weeks!

What a sweetieHas she been able to find a flockmate friend yet... since losing her sibling?

She has made herself at home and goes where she wishes. The others pretty much let her have her own way.

Earlier she was hanging out under the sweeter heater with Eli-too.

But she doesn’t have a friend who snuggles with her. So I cuddle her when she wants cuddling.

Tonight the three girl marshmallows are in with the polishes. Blaze and the boy marshmallow have moved to the big coop. Hopefully that allows us to integrate the group with the main run crew. Riddick decided to sleep in the tall coop tonight.

We hooked up our heated waterers, and now we have no power due to a tree down.

I guess you’re getting the same weather warnings I am getting. Already have snow warnings for up to and over 50cm (20”) of snow.

The chooks were able to get outside this afternoon and I guess that will be that last they will get out unless they are wrong about the prolonged cold going into the new year.

I removed the safety fencing from the front lawn in front of the barn. I will need to get the truck and plow back there if we get all that snow.

Happy chooks enjoying unusually mild end of November weather.

Whiskers and her chicklets, she’s a good mama holding them still, at what’s this, 12 weeks?

Mr P and that brat Sue trying to pick his head feathers.
