Yesterday morning I gave the girls a yogurt treat. It’s always a good chance to get some group photos and they love yogurt.
Red has given up being broody. It took a bit longer than usual as she was a bit more determined this time. Ginger came back into lay after a nine day break. My theory is that the girls that don’t go broody need a little break every now and again. I checked on Ginger just as she was laying her egg.
It is always so nice when we get a small break from having any broody girls. We now have five girls laying, Gold, Storm, Maple, Cloud and Ginger.

Happy girls, lovely to have five girls laying.
Five out of nine is enough to keep us in eggs. I am hoping that Popcorn comes back into lay soon.
Good to get them when you can!
Absolutely.
Just noticed the big difference between Cloud and Mango! First time they’ve not been in step together?
It is. Because Mango has gone into full moult and Cloud hasn’t this has put them out of step for the first time. This meant when Cloud started laying again Mango didn’t and therefor when Cloud went broody Mango didn’t as she wasn’t laying. I hope this means Cloud will come out of it quickly.
