A dozen eggs since Sunday, 90 for the month.

The roosters continue to develop. Jean-Bob still doesn't have much of a crow yet, but he's definitely more active in the chasing hen department. Any hen who bends over to peck something on the ground within eyeshot of him is just asking for trouble.

The funny thing is how the Reds stick up for each other. The assaulted hen will ruffle her feathers and chase off her would-be romancer, whether is was Jean-Bob or Roger - but I've seen one Red go after a rooster that was mounting one of the other Reds, effectively chasing him off.

I've also seen Roger chase Jean-Bob off of a hen, too.

Another soft shelled egg this week. Suspicion is still with one of the pullets, although one of the Reds may be having some problems. This bears continued observation until I can figure out what's going on.
