Esme

Despite not having touched the porridge* overnight, Esme came out of the duck house looking much perkier this morning, and seems to be well on the way to being a good example of 'make sure that you finish the whole course of antibiotics, even if you feel better before the end'.
She's still occasionally stopping to pant, but all their breakfast has gone (of course, that may be magpie-related...) and she followed me to the feed bin when I went to get them their corn.
(Didn't actually *eat* it when I put it down, it's progress!)
* In retrospect, I'm not surprised by this: porridge is standard hen comfort food, and I dare say that some kinds of ducks will also like it. Runners seem to be more carnivorous than the norm, though, so now I'm trying to come up with something similar that they might like. Maybe if I put meal worms in the porridge...? |

We've suspected, since we put Jodie's crate away, that she'd been sleeping on the sofa after we'd gone to bed.
Last night, I was quietly reading for a while before bed. When I decided it was time to sleep, I looked around to see where Jo had got to and:
Make yourself at home, dearie! |
