That's so cute!  She is so interested in the mirror!

They all love it! We found it in the dollar section at the hardware store. Best dollar I ever spent. So much bigger than the bird mirrors in the pet section, and cheaper too!

awwwww  I have no idea what to tell you about her

Svetlana is doing much better. She has been interacting normally with the others. Playing chase, eating and drinking great, and checking herself out in the mirror. Hopefully she just had something in her eye or got pecked. Will repeat the lubricant ointment tomorrow if it's still irritated.

I though that mypetchicken (Alex) had mentioned possibly doing a giveaway or a hatch-a-long for the 4 of July or just July. Anyone heard anything about either? Also @Sally Sunshinewe are having a few issues with the humidity in our new coolerbator. The calibrated hygrometer reads about 50% with the lowest it's been down to 42%. We've added rice and aren't sure what else to do. Any suggestions? Have you had any trouble with the humidity in them? Our styrobator has been running about 28-34% which seems to work better for us here. Also Sally are those stunning blue eggs on the bottom shelf your cream legbars'?

legbar yes. MPC switched to this May hal instead. Do u have dehumidifier running?
