I can't find Speedy and another black hen. She's been missing since this morning which makes me think she's sitting on a nest but I'm just not sure. The rain has finally stopped and I let everyone out today to celebrate.
I could hear some major chirping going on down at my neighbours house this morning. I had a look as thought it was one of our chicks lost, but It was coming from his old chicken pen. I saw a black hen in there with at least two chicks (who look a about as old as Mongy Foots). Remember I never did find her carcass. I wonder if perhaps she didn't wander down there. While I'm not accusing and my eyesight is certainly not the best, I'm going to investigate later.
I miss Speedy and she's only been gone for a few hours. I miss her arrogance and patting her.
I got the chickens and ducks a bale of hay this morning. I bet they'll be pleased about sleeping on something dry tonight.
UPDATE: I was wrong to think that the neighbours had some how captured Speedy and locked her up. I found her in the afternoon under the shed having some alone time. I think she may have a nest under there.
