Day 198.

Bush eggs: one. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: full.

Unbeknownst to us all, Brian has been secreting away eggs and is now ready to start another family. I think this is rubbing salt in Paula’s wounds and Jack is deeply unhappy about the thought of more roosters around. But Brian won’t hear a word of it. She’s deaf to all good advice, just puts her wings over her ear holes and says “Scaly mites! Scaly mites!” so she can’t hear what we are saying. Anyway, she’s off to start sitting tomorrow no matter what anyone says.
