New nesting box for chicks and homemade donuts (not for chicks)!

So the chickens have needed a real nesting box ever since we put them in the modified doghouse, and HR and I finally gave it to them! Two nesting sites affixed to the side. Our doghouse is looking more and more like a coop!



And the girls ...


Lady Spur has not joined the flock just yet, but is fattening up and getting healthy all the same. She has spent two "outside" sessions with the big girls. One resulted in Rose pecking her harshly (I intervened even though you're not supposed to) and the other they got along swimmingly (or flightlessly?).


She's getting big! And she's tamed down to the point where she will hop onto your lap for a treat. I'm very pleased with her!

And, Happy Hanukkah!


*Sucks in air* Homemade, gluten-free, vegan pumpkin rice powdered sugar donuts ... that's a mouthful! And a good mouthful too.
