While we were in Rio, Esperanza decided to let one of the hens brood. She sat 12 eggs. Every one of them hatched after 21 days. Right on schedule.
Peeps everywhere!
First hour…
Second day moving down…
Everyone seems to be fine a week later. Only one peep didn’t make it so far.

The 2023 batch of chicks has arrived. 12 peeps: 6 barred rock and 6 noir marans.
Moonshine would like to eat the peeps.
One week later, the peeps were twice as big. They will be introduced to the flock on April 20th.
Why aren’t those chickens laying any eggs?

Meanwhile in London, far away from the Apothecary Shed, we found this lesbian petting art in the The Tramshed men’s room.
No, the women’s room did not have gay petting. We looked. But there was a cow in a tank with a chicken on its back (by Damian Hirst).
This is not the cow you’re looking for.
Death from Above

Great horned owl reigns death from above on the poor unsuspecting (but properly paranoid) chickens. Two disappeared. This is the one we found.
Poor chicken never suspected a thing.
Apparently owls are zombies. Must have brains. (Insert through neck.)
Aftermath.
