I have gotten rid of most of my adult chickens, but I have 14 chicks ranging from a couple of days to three weeks old; Spitz, Brabanters, Spitz/Brabanters, and Brabanter/Spitz in my laundry room. My lungs are doomed.barnie.gif

I've been finding homes for my adult Spitz, too. Replacements, I hope, will be arriving like... day before yesterday.

                  Hi! I share High Meadows Farm with my great husband and son, an Australian Shepherd, an Arab,

                                     a Morgan, 3 cats,  Redcap, and Appenzeller Spitzhauben chickens

                                                                and a bunch of wild critters.

3.5 week old Spitz/Brabanter. I should be able to tell the difference between my Spitz/Brabanters and Brabanter/Spitz. The former should not have beards, and the latter should. 

 

I'm trying to find some neighborhood kid to clean my coops. Maybe i can keep a few birds.

I came home from work to find Bowie dead. He was fine yesterday. There's not a wound on him, so he must have broke his neck or something. I'm sure glad that I got a few chicks before he died. Thanks again, Jess.

I'm sorry. That's hard. His hens will be producing fertile eggs for several weeks. I'd incubate them if I were you.

So sorry!... He was a very handsome boy. I hope you get lots of chicks from the eggs he left you.

Collect as MANY eggs you can until your eggs run out of fertility or shooting blanks. Every bit helps!

 

So sorry about your poor boy! Crap happens!
