@fraying Cool! We have a mini flock of 6 Wheaten Marans girls. Love our goofy sweetie birds! :)
Those eggs are pretty dark, am guessing yours might be Black Coppers?

@wohali We just got done watching TV and Paul looked at his phone and went "omg holy shit!!" and I was all....."is he dead?" to which Paul replied, "no, new classic Doctor Who eps have been recovered."
I have to admit, I feel a bit let down. 😆

@helenclayton it also makes me wonder, since birds are now understood to be descendants of theropod dinosaurs, did T rex dust bathe?!?! 😆

@helenclayton birds having a dust bath are THE BEST. It's my fave thing to watch our chickens doing. 😆

Happy 1st birthday to my sweetie birds! They got to spend most of the day out in the yard foraging for whatever green grass they could find and bugs. Hopefully the yard will break dormancy soon and the foraging will improve.
Some freezing rain started to fall though so had to lure them back to their covered coop run for the rest of the afternoon. Gave them a couple collard green leaves to have something to demolish and in this pic they are enthusiastically gobbling up dried soldier fly larve....their favorite! They'll get some defrosted strawberries from last years harvest for their special birthday pm snack.
They've been doing a bang up job of keeping us supplied with eggs, even during the winter. They slowed down but never completely stopped laying. 😮
