This morning the little girls looked fine again. Perhaps Amber was subdued yesterday from laying a soft shelled egg and being bullied constantly by Bluebell. Today Bluebell has been much better, an occasional go at them but not constantly like the last few days and the little girls look brighter. It was a lovely day too which I am sure the girls enjoy as much as I do.<\/p>\n
They are eating, drinking and pooping and Honey laid an egg today in the nest box. They run to me when I go up the garden and run to the patio when I open the store cabinet door, just in case there are some treats on offer. They also joined in with the morning cabbage with plenty of enthusiasm.<\/p>\n
In the afternoon I gave the girls some maggots. This was the first time the bantys have had maggots and they loved them.<\/p>\n
