A typical dozen eggs from my varied flock.
We had a bad storm whip through and it flipped several panels of metal roofing from the over-hang.
Luckily the panels hung on and didn't land on anyone (or any chicken).
Jon was able to flip the panels back in place and repair the roof without needing a new panel.
He used the new panel I'd already bought to help divert rain at the end of the roof.
Pine bedding haulers.
I did a spring cleaning of the chicken coop last weekend. Over the course of two days, I hauled all of the old bedding out (wearing a dust mask is a must!) and replaced it with new. The deep litter method worked very well over winter and the old bedding was nice and dry.
A nice, clean coop ready for spring.
The girls were so excited to have access to their coop again, they hopped right into their nesting boxes to get to work.
These brothers crack me up. Chief Crazy Feather (left) and Wolfie (formerly Nicholas) spend most of their time together and they love to pose for the camera.
See what I mean?
I think Fluffy (in the back, on the roost) is wondering that the boys are doing.
And a funny pose from Marmalade... or is this Diana? I'm not sure.
Popcorn, one of our Silver Spangled Hamburg hens has a wound on her side so she's spending some time in the hospital ward (a dog crate in the garage). She's getting very tired of the daily wound cleanings but she's showing signs of healing so I'm encouraged. Hopefully she'll make a full recovery.
