Spring is officially here, but it's normal for us to get one last snow around the end of March. Right now there are flurries outside, but nothing like the huge snowstorm we had last year on March 25! In that one, my daughter's car got stuck in our driveway, and my daffodils were just about buried.
And here is a photo from today, to show the difference. I think today's snow is going to be a lot less.
In bird room news, all three budgie hens have eggs in their nest boxes. One of the society finches has started laying, and three out of the four pairs of Bourke's also have eggs.
The one who laid an egg on the floor of her cage before I gave her a box has not laid any more yet. I saved the one from the floor and put it in the box with her, but she just buries it in the bedding and doesn't sit on it. She is one who I have had trouble with in the past, laying bad eggs and not incubating them properly. I think I probably bought an old hen who can't breed any more. But if she sits in her box until the other hens' chicks hatch, I will give her a chance to foster a chick, and see if she is a good feeder. If she has ever raised chicks for her previous owners, then she might make a good foster mother.
