2 chicken eggs 0 duck eggs.  The little red door was super busy today with hens running, literally, in and out of the coop.  I thought surely I'd find more than the usual 2 eggs.  Nope. One egg in box ten and one egg half way between the gate and the coop on the ground!  I guess she just couldn't make it there in time.  Closing time was a breeze.  This sun setting sooner thing is doing me some good!

More fun in the front yard today with Merlin and the girls.  They definitely know what, "Wanna go out FRONT?" means now.  They race for the front door or the outside gate that leads to the front yard.  It's rough out front.  You have to run faster and turn shorter and roll harder out front.  I don't know why.

Today they all took their naps on the porch.  Someone took a butternut squash from the table and someone took a pair of Sam's sunglasses and had them on the floor, but no harm done.  No names will be mentioned, Jewel or Maezee.  Everyone, including Merlin, looked guilty when I opened the door.

Before we went for closing time I sneaked out to see who was napping where.  Maezee was under the table on Merlin's blanket, Merlin was on the rug, and Jewel was in the cage with her deer antler.  SO, tonight is a trial run of how well they do on the porch out of their cage.  As long as there are no accidents, then it's probably a go.  I've puppy proofed it best as I can.  I'm hoping they can't get the frig open.  My wine is in there and Sam's beer, otherwise everything is safe.  Maezee likes her beer.
