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.

About to start my semi-weekly chore of scrubbing my chickens waterers. This would keep it cleaner between cleanings!

So sorry to hear of Spartacus! Such a handsome guy! The pics of the little chicks are so cute. Mine are at that "dinosaur" awkward stage and they're too funny looking! Thanks again!

I really like your blog and site. I have raised chickens for a few years now, and I and still learning. The information you provide is very helpful. This waterier is just what I need, I am always worrying about their water being dirty.

Just love your blog! I just bought my first two hens and a rooster (Orpingtons) … and plan on growing my feathered family!
