The broody has given up. She decided yesterday that motherhood wasn't for her and, quite literally, flew the coop. She was pacing around and when Dan opened the end, she shot out in a flurry of feathers and rejoined the girls.

I wasn't sure if she would sit and I wasn't that bothered, given the time of year but this morning, she's fluffed up on a nest box. Needless to say, she's been hoiked out. Talk about wanting to have your cake and eat it!
