Here are the new baby chicks. All the other hens came to inspect them and apparently only one posed a threat which caused an uproar from mama.

She led them into the coop but rested directly in the middle of the floor where you can see Moo laying in yesterday's post. Sometimes Moo has to enter the coop at a trot to make it through the door so I thought they may not be the best spot for the babies and herded her under the laying boxes where she called them all to her for the night.

See? Look at that udder! Surely that's as full as it can be? I'm running errands today and hopefully I'll come home to find a calf.

Moo has never given up her dream of taking all the water from the horses to force them off the property, even if it means damaging a fence. And yes, she does have a full bucket of fresh water right on the patio away from the horses. She seems to enjoy drinking all their water though. That trailer was parked directly behind the mower in a useless attempt to block her from doing this. She simply nudged it out of the way. Subborn cow.
