Not sure what is going to happen with our noisy, grumpy old birds, but the dominance has clearly shifted from the Poppa of the flock to the largest rooster. He actually slept in the hen house last night, with the old rooster hiding in the corner, and the new Alpha hung out with the hens all day yesterday and part of this morning. But this morning the hens aren't totally cooperating and are rotating between the two roosters, so I'm not sure what is going to happen. I may wind up having to capture a rooster or two to keep them isolated, a thought that does not thrill me at all.
Meanwhile the rebuilding of the small house for the biddies is making slow but sure progress. Hope to paint boards tomorrow afternoon and finish assembling and moving everything Saturday morning. And at some point there will be pictures!!
