Thanks...you're right it is sort of the second time,although the last time she just took over from her sis & only had three days sitting and voila babies appeared!...maybe she thought it would be that easy this time...poor gal!
I think tomorrow I'll turf her outside for twenty mins or so of sunshine,hope she has some drink & food & see how it goes.Will also give me time to inspect her nest.
I don't think we'll ever stop worrying,during all this,Marigold is really not seeming herself,not sure if she's just pining for her sis,egg bound or what?Hoping a nice warm bathe may sort her out.At present the only time she'll eat is either when her sis is out or out of my hand!She'll merrily tuck into her pellets from my hand but as soon as I put them down for her she goes off in a sulk!
One of the Isa's decided to go broody today...afraid she got a little cuddle & turfed outside with the others!
Good job I've grown to love'm!
