Baze (Black Copper Marans rooster) returned home from the vet hospital yesterday . Although his illness is still a mystery, he seems to have improved and is eating & drinking independently. The girlz miss him.

Summer bounty
Brutus (Mille Fleur Serama rooster) held down the fort while Blaze was out of commission.
Doc Brown (White Crested Black Polish pullet)
Windy (Blue Splash Marans hen) She’s got some genetic issues including a defective shell gland, which causes her to lay funky eggs and crooked toes
Aurora (White Leghorn pullet)
This little guy will be re-homed soon as we are over our rooster limit already. He is a cross between a Black Copper Marans and a Wheaten Marans.
With temperatures in the 90s this week, photos of this past winter make me thankful for the heat even if the chickens aren’t.

I love all your blogs! Just yesterday I read the 8 series on hatching. I have so much to learn and my broody hen is finally staying in her nest!

Funny story, I used to absolutely hate chickens. Said I would never ever have a chicken on my farm. Well I have been reformed. I am now an addict. Started out 3 years ago with a small flock of 20. Thought it would be good for my daughter. Now we have 50 or so. We have lost some along the way :-( I love it when they come to the house and beg for treats. Even had one sneak in behind me when I came in the door. She walked right in like she owned the place. Crazy girl! Spring… Read more »
