At about 6 weeks of age so 3 weeks ago

So I got chicks from tsc this year and one little girl is having a big problem. Every time she eats her crop fills up huge. I have treated for blocked/sour crop and it takes almost a week to go down but then as soon as she eats again it's back to how it was. I have done everything I can think of...

Dani4hedgies I have 5 lavender orphingtons and 1 hamp. I got them from trish44 and it was definitely worth the drive! I got to see her birds and they are absolutely beautiful!! Obviously very well cared for and the healthiest I have EVER seen!! I wish I could have more than 12 in the city and...

Enjoying my new fluffy babies!! Thank you Trish44!!

Thank you everyone and as soon as its completed I will definitely post a pic.

Thank you hopefully in the next couple years we can get out of town and happily have a full size farm!

Just updated my run building project thread. My girls have their own little farm house now. All that's left is the siding for their cozy new home. Took a while with dh being hurt, I did most of the building myself while he did the intricate cuts and told me what to do. It was a really fun...

Since my husband was injured at the time I built most of the coop by myself while he supervised. The intricate cutting was done by him of course but it was really fun. All that's left to do is add the siding. I will post that pic when we get it done. It turned out bigger than originally planned...

The coop

Rooks mom thank you it has been hard to keep up. Danz he has a tens unit that the va issued him 2 yrs ago. We are waiting to find out when he goes in for his new scan to see how much he has deteriorated since his scan 2 yrs ago. Apparently he hasn't been telling the whole story when he tells me...

Well we have had a really trying week. My dh has been suffering from a back injury. He has advanced disc degeneration and decided to see a chiropractor to try and get some relief from the pain but it did more harm than good. He has been wheelchair bound most of the week. I have installed grab...

Yes danz its a cooler climate but its not too cold. The elevation makes it pretty even year round. I'm not much for cold myself but I can handle it better if its not extremes like it gets here sometimes. Plus with the way it is zoned I would be able to have my animals as well as crops. The...

Well we had a busy day yesterday. I built a roosting ladder for the girls and we got most of the watering system in place. All that's left to do on that is to install the drinking cups when they get delivered. It sure is nice to have water in the run. I still ain't sure how dh will keep it from...

Here is a better shot of pepper. Bella Goldie Gandolf

This is Pepper, the silkie mix that I have no clue what gender. Any opinions?

Well today ain't going as planned at all. I woke everyone up to get ready for church and as I was out taking care of the chickens they all went back to bed. I understand everyone is exhausted, we are still trying to get the other house ready to rent and poor dh is working 55-60 hr weeks on top...

Yes they have! my black chicken Angie loves it so much she will kick one of the younger chickens off of it so she can have it. The EE's are scared of it when it swings though.

My girls got a new swing yesterday to play on thanks to the storm a few nights ago! Now we just have to build our perminant coop.

Well danz I'm not sure how exactly he plans on doing it, he gets pretty technical when he talks about what his plans are and I get lost in the conversation. I do know that he is planning some kind of weird mechanical stuff for both the coop and watering system. I just usually wait til he puts...

Thank you all for the prayers and well wishes it has been very appreciated. So I think my dh has been keeping me occupied so I don't get depressed. I have been able to update my "new run building project" here on byc because he decided we needed to drop everything and work on it all the sudden...
