Ooh, nice! What are your geese like? I’ve never known any to be super friendly, but to be fair I never spent a lot of time with them. I feel like they could be some pretty cool birds.

Thank you, and welcome to BYC! The roo in your avatar is beautiful too! She’s an Easter egger! I don’t have her anymore, but they’re one of my favorite breeds. I know right, my GLW is one of the prettiest birds in my flock right now. Talk about eye candy! How many do you have?

Thank you! He’s my special old man, always begging for hugs and treats. <3

That’s so cute!!

If you’re talking about his bumblefoot, I am very much aware. He’s had chronic bumblefoot and nothing I’ve tried will fix it.

I’m not entirely sure, he’s some sort of mix. I think he has some black copper marans in him though.

Haha, thank you!

Oh, interesting! I wonder how my girls would do with something like that. They're pretty big scaredy cats lol. That's a valid concern. I would never be able to completely bird proof their area, at least not anytime soon, so unfortunately potential diseases is something I have to risk. If the...

I don't think so, the area I'm trying to cover is well over 25 feet. I'm also looking into the possibility of putting a lot more plants up there or, really worst case scenario, sectioning it off so the chickens can't go up there. Which would kinda suck, because the plan was to eventually move...

Thank you, I’m looking into that now! I wish there was a way to let all of the birds through except for hawks/falcons. I have a lot of owls in my area that hunt in my yard, and they’re really good about keeping the rodents and snakes away. :/ I’ve been okay, pretty busy over here. It seems like...

Hello! It's been a little while since I popped in, I hope everyone's doing alright. :] I've been having trouble with hawks recently. Two really close calls in two days. I tried putting bird netting up, but in less than two hours a wild bird got caught in it. Locking the chickens up into a...

These are so pretty!

Haha, always something to be grateful for! Admittedly it can be hard to tell the difference sometimes. I swear, some days I wonder how he hasn’t removed pieces of my finger lolol.

Hey Kurby! How have you been? Don’t remind me! I had a dream the other night about getting another batch of chicks. I know I say this every year, but I really don’t have room this time. 😭 No progress with Molly’s issues, but she’s been going through an active period. I think the extra snacks...

Haha, yeah! My last batch was almost a year ago. I miss fuzzy babies. <3 Everyone’s been pretty good here, not a lot going on. What about you, how are you and your birds?

So cute! Seeing everyone’s birds is giving me chick-fever. 😍 What breeds did you get?

I’m so sorry your yokos are sick. Hopefully the test comes back negative. :fl

I love those natural perches! How do you think they compare to more "standard" perches? Do you think your birds like them more?

I forgot to update yesterday, but I checked everyone's ears and they all seem clear. Molly is on meds and taking it like a champ, especially seeing as she's been taking them "raw" and not hidden in any sort of food. I think I got most of the chunks out in both ears. I'm still going to check her...

That's a good way to measure how long they can be worked on. I'd hate to stress them out, especially when they're sick. I'm really lucky most of mine are lap birds, so they can handle being worked on for so long. Huge props to anyone who can work on a not-so-friendly birds. Aww, Hope sounds...
