no keets....
after such a happy day on the farm yesterday... today has proven to be different. I went to check on my "sitting hen" only to find that the nest is gone and so is she. "something" of the night must have found her last night and everything is gone...just a bunch of feathers that I found near my round pen. I am quite sad... I was looking forward to having some little "puff ball babies" around the farm. Wished I had at least tried to move that nest yesterday... but life is full of "should have's" and one can't dwell on that. Poor "Mr."guinea hen looks kind of lost today, he's the only bird left........

Awwww, that's terrible. So sorry.
Well, darn the luck. I guess you are going to have to buy more?
Ooohhhhhhh! I'm so sorry! You wouldn't have been successful at moving her nest, I've tried that many times. They want their nest right where they put it. She would not have sat on her eggs and probably would have gone back and sat on the same empty spot. Silly birds. I'm so sorry, talk to you soon!
sniff.
How disappointing. Life is so cruel to small creatures sometimes even when we do our best to keep them safe. Hope you get a new one soon.
My word clue below it 'criter'. Odd and appropriate.
awe, how sad. :(
