I'm not entirely convinced the Tommy likes Lady. Those dirty foot prints remain absent from her back, unlike Miss Muffet, who is black from Tommy standing on her.
Miss Muffet is quite the little explorer, she wandered much further today than she has done before. Today she was down at the studio door having a poke around as well as venturing into the patch.
I watched today as Miss Muffet came running down the hill, followed closely by Lady and sure enough about 2 minute later, down came Tommy. He must really be out of shape since the other ducks died. Its so good to see him walking around and not stuck in that chicken pen all day. Gee he must have been sad. I didn't think he was too bad until it was mentioned to me by an outsider that he was depressed. And depressed he was, but he seems to have pulled through.
It wont be long until Speedy is a mum again, as I heard cheeping under the other black hen today. How exciting, hopefully she'll be a little more attentive this time around.

Are you entirely convinced that Lady is a girl? I think it would be the irony of all ironies that she turns out to be a HE with that name. The turtles that live in my parent's garden for the last 20 years are called Arthur and Eloise, and it wasn't until we saw Eloise climbing on Arthur did we see the error in our naming ways. Oh well the names stuck, and we're now used to seeing Arthur laying eggs.
You read my mind and what my next post is about. I think I've got a boy named Lady on my hands.
Arthur laying eggs! how funny.
