today on "as the coop turns":
goober's egg, which she stole and kicked artemis off of but is an old english game egg, hatched. bandit, who hatched her egg a week(?) ago had been taking her chick to sleep in the nesting box goober was sitting on this egg on so the chick hatched under bandit but both being broody and old english games is confusing the chick. bandit has jumpkicked her daughter goober to keep her away from it, goober has pecked bandit's child on the head, the new hatch will follow both.
here is a touching moment between goober and her child before bandit came over to try and claim these treats for her own child.
goober, unsure of whether to claim the child or out of a desire to be not violently assailed by her mother, has also pecked this child on the head, before mothering it and sitting on it for warmth. there's a lot of uneasiness today
mercury has been glad bandit has not been scrapping with her anymore, but with three mothers and their respective offspring trying to raise/be raised, graze, etc there is an... awe-inspiring? amount of feminine violence in the backyard
will bandit allow her daughter to raise her own child? will she claim it as her own? will goober retaliate by attacking bandit's child again? will artemis be allowed to actually hatch her own eggs and the children not get taken by possums next time? will i ever know peace again? find out all this and more on the next episode of dragonball z
