Day 152.

Bush eggs: two. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: three-quarters full. Unhappy hens: one.

Oh dear, Brian’s ropeable. The female person and her Little People took three eggs today, so Brian was left with only five. She convinced Steve to lay an egg in her nest and she laid one there herself so she is back to seven – I might be able to help out tomorrow (or maybe the next day). She has also decided to sit very soon instead of waiting for the full complement of fourteen eggs and has started gently plucking the feathers out of her broody patch in preparation.
