I have been aware of Spot’s comb gradually getting redder over the past couple of months. However yesterday it struck me how much it had changed in size and shape too.
When Spot’s comb was pale and narrow the tiny feathers either side of it looked like hairs. It is now a wide strip with no hair like feathers visible. I looked back over the last two months to see how dramatic the change has been.
Spot has also really grown in confidence recently. I am sure she will start laying eggs any day now.

Certainly looks like eggs are imminent. She’s a pretty girl.
She is beautiful but I am biased. It’s lovely to see her mature from so shy to confident girl.
She is a very pretty girl! xx
She is. xx
Lovely girl, very pretty.
She is very pretty. She has been looking in the nest boxes this morning.
A beautiful comb (not that the rest of her isn’t lovely!) Eggs cannot be far away now.
She does have a beautiful comb and I am expecting her first egg any day now.
