The Broody Hen and Duck Report

Blondie is still really serious about the eggs in her nest. I did notice she was off her nest twice this week to go to the bathroom and get a quick drink. Look at her being all serious and all. 

She had visitors checking in on her from the brooder. 

Maisy the Duck is down to one chicken egg in the nest (the blue one.). I’m leaving another egg in there just because. She started with five but is down to one viable chance of a chick. There seems to be a lot of sharing and fighting for nest space in this nesting box even though they have plenty of nesting boxes from which to choose. 

This grey hen (below) is a Sapphire Blue Plymouth Rock (I’m pretty sure.). She laid the light egg. 

Maisy the Duck saw I was giving out ramen noodles (cooked) as treats today. She took a quick dip in the pool and returned to the nest. 

Fancy (above) noticed the kittens didn’t eat all of the cat food. She eats it very quietly so that the others don’t hear her. Guess she doesn’t want to share. She lays the bluish/green egg.
