So far...

...so good!  Little Mary, our Barred Rock Hen, seems to be pulling through.  I am cautiously hopeful that she'll live a long healthy chicken life, despite the eggbound situation that scared us so much on Monday.  She has passed a good amount of the eggy nastiness, and seems to be acting like herself again.  The true test will be if she lays an actual proper egg in the next few days...

Our housewarming/coop moving party is tomorrow, and of course they're calling for rain all damn day.  Moving the coop down the hill so that it is adjacent to the fenced run will be pretty much impossible in the rain, it's muddy down there even when it hasn't rained for three days... but we're debating whether or not to go ahead with the party anyways.  It may feel a little bit crowded in here with everyone inside, but it'll be cozy, right?  It'll just be a shame that our guests can't enjoy the beautiful outdoors while they're here.
