Egg number 21 )t'
Went to close the coop up for the night, did a quick head count in the half dark, shut the coop door and picked up the feeder, I found a little black batty girl so picked her up and put her in with everyone else. So now I am worried as I could easily have locked her out for the night and why wasn't she in there, is she unwell, she made no attempt to move when I picked her up, hope she is ok in the morning >fi<
