The recent unexpected passing of Sweet meant that Sour underwent a one week quarantine to be sure there wasn't a communicable illness responsible. It was a quiet and boring week, though we did our best to entertain Sour and provide her with daily company. At the same time, we were actively seeking out and vetting another local hen to keep her company.
After a successful quarantine period, a Black Australorp has joined us at the Kiddie Science Lab!

We're all still getting to know each other, and it's certainly been a new experience all around. The new hen is quite vocal! Check out the video below to meet her.
As with all the animals at the Lab, we need your help naming her! We surveyed some of our young scientists for suggestions and now it's your turn to decide!! VOTE HERE until May 10th then stay tuned for the big announcement!
