Henry and Gordon update

Henry and Gordon update

2 minutes

I promised an update on our rooster situation. Henry has been hiding in one of the coops and hasn't been too keen on emerging. This morning he emerged!!!

He was pretty thirsty. The other day MacGyver had to shoo Henry out of the coop. Henry went out, took a couple of sips of water, and went right back in the coop. This morning he came out all on his own! When I was done with chores he was back in the coop, but the fact Henry emerged on his own without prodding was a good sign. Meanwhile Gordon is still patrolling the other coop and ladies. He definitely has found his crow. The boy is making noise!

In other news I put new straw in the duck hut. Ducks can really mess a place up quick! The straw should last a couple of days. In the winter we just layer the straw because the messed bedding is frozen and a little hard to scrape out. So come warmer weather it should be really fun!

I also put new nesting pads in the ladies nesting boxes.( for the chickens) They have started to lay more eggs again!!! YAY! I went from 18 or so eggs a day down to 4! Last night I collected 11! Let's GO!!!!!!!

I realize there are only 10 eggs shown. I had one for breakfast!

Make it a great day!
