This week’s Flock Focus Friday is heavy on fluffy cuteness as we hatched the eggs from P. Allen Smith’s flock and welcomed the chicks into ours!

Spring brings ushers in change and new flock members as we say goodbye to Spartacus.
Spartacus was a Serama x Red Sex Link rooster.

The circle of life played out in the backyard this week and while we welcomed new flock members, we said goodbye to Spartacus who crossed the rainbow bridge. RIP pretty boy.

My family and I are new at raising chickens. We got 9 baby chicks in March and having so much fun with them. So sorry to hear about Spartacus.

Working on getting the run expanded. And this certainly would come in handy for the hot weather that will be in our area soon. I love reading and learning from your blog.
