This week has been rooster-centric for some reason. I’ve taken more than a few frame-worth shots of Blaze, Caesar and the P. Allen Smith roolets and wrote an article I have long intended to write on chicken mating. Rooster reproductive anatomy became a shocking subject of conversation at my sister’s house during Easter dinner (don’t ask) and I knew that if my family had such confusion over and questions about chicken sex, lots of others probably did too! If you missed that article, feel free to catch up with it here! Beyond that, the weather has been perfect for anything outdoors and I hope you enjoy some of the photos I shot while taking advantage of it!

Freida, my only Silkie, has been broody and sitting on these eggs since this photo was taken on June 9th- the eggs should hatch on or about Monday!

Love Blaze……..my Bonnie is similar to your blue hen……babies are due July 12………
The P. Allen Smithlings are beautiful!
Love the crazy little coffee pictures! Your site is always so interesting — and so much fun. I'd surely love to win the prize package. My girls and their rooster would, too! Sending blessings from the critters here on Windy Hollow Farm.
I think the poster is so cute!! It would go very well with my other chicken pictures. Thanks Manna Pro for the giveaway!!
All the weekly emails have been great. I'd love to win the poster!! That is cool.
