Where we vacation at Hatteras Island, NC there is an ice cream truck that comes through all the neighborhoods every evening playing obnoxiously loud nursery rhyme music. My kids love it though and we usually oblige them 1-2 nights. Its very hard for me to pay $3-4 for a single popsicle or...
Good morning guys, I took a hiatus but not on purpose. Got a good handle on our chicken flock now, we've lost a few to different sickness, but all 14 seem really healthy now, and all but 2 are laying, finished our new big coop and all is well. I got a broody in jail, and hoping she is over...
And the new coop...we arent done yet but the main part is done and the girls are settling in more now. The first night they were like "why are we in here??"
Still have to attach the run to it, and do hwcloth, we going to add another door so they all dont have to line up at that one, and...
Happy belated anniversary @chickisoup ! I hope you can schedule that trip again!

Morning pond! Life has been CRAZY here lately. I guess summer does that. I may have went off the deep end, and we now have 14 chickens! We just added 8 more babies, well they are about 2 months old. They are this and that, polish, cochins, a wyandotte, some mutts, oh I just love them. The new...
Ok things went south a bit here I see...lol. but to be back on topic, one of them has legs covered in feathers and they are sprouting on the feet as well. The other just a few stray feathers here and there on her legs.
What do they look like to you? After talking with her more she didnt breed them, she ordered day old black sex links and this is what she got. Two of them have feathered feet and legs.
Morning pond, we are starting the new coop today!!! We bought a chain link dog kennel 10x10x6 to use as a temporary daytime run for the new babies being picked on and I think we're going to rig it to use as the run for the new coop. Going to put wire under and up it and across the top. The new...
Could I have a rooster that doesnt crow?
I thought from the beginning she might be one, but now it looks more and more like it. She is about 9 months old, her comb and waddle are big and bright red and her neck and saddle feathers are dominant.
I dont see spurs but there is a nub on the inside...
That actually sounds really nice chicki!
One of the others has feathers forming on its feet too, the 3rd one has more yellowish feet and no signs of feathers. I'm so intrigued!
We having a cookout and fireworks later this evening, I just made banana pudding and checking on the new chicks every...
