Bush eggs: none. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: quarter full.
Brian is sobbing her heart out. Jack has told her the Boys have to go but she says over and over, “They’re not ready, they’re only babies, they still sleep in the NEST!” Jack’s gone to talk to the Boys, to give them a positive spin on it, sort of play up the “independence” and “chance to do what you want without me getting in the way” side of things. I of course side with Jack – it’s such a squeeze in the house now that they’ve grown so big. They are rowdy and disruptive, they hassle us hens unmercilessly (especially Camilla) and they are ungrateful and undisciplined. Definitely time for them to go cooping on their own. Steve is SO glad Camilla is a hen.
