Back to normal

Well, the Broody Cage worked.

On Friday afternoon, we let Scarlett out for a wander, which she did. Then she tried to get back into the Nesting box, so we popped her back in the Broody Cage. Saturday morning she looked much calmer, so I let her out of the broody cage, and she spent the day free ranging with Delilah.

We had to keep an eye on her though, in case she tried to nest under one of the shrubs. She did sit down a lot, but each time we went to investigate we found Delilah sat beside her.

We decided to leave her out of the broody cage on Saturday night. Sunday, she seemed reasonably back to normal; we took the Brooody cage out of the Run, but we haven't dismantled it yet.

Today (Monday) she seems fine.

Thank goodness that's over with. Until next time.
