I let the babes in with the big girls 3 days ago. I went out there last night to check on them and found one on the big girl roost bar (54 inches off the ground) and one was in the rafters with the current HIC (hen in charge) ep.gif

Hey guys,

I had to go to New Orleans for work and just got back...

 

Yeah, the wheaties are definitely flyers. I had to put netting up over their run. My big butt girls don't need it. They stay put behind their 6 ft. fence, but the wheaties... hide.gif I'd love to see pictures of the girls.

 

A friend gave me pictures he took with a game cam at the back of my property. On June 30th, at 9:30 a.m. he got a picture of a huge, black coyote! I'll post the picture tomorrow. It makes me very, very grateful for electric fencing. That coyote might be the source of the yelps I hear every now and then coming from the coop area.

Does anybody know what my little mystery chick could be? I ordered 15 Blue Laced Red Wynadottes about 3 weeks ago. This little guy/gal??? came with them I am assuming on accident. I just don't know what it is. The pictures aren't the greatest as some of the feathers are wet. I am leaning towards maybe a Marans as there are feathery legs. Any guesses? I don't have any Marans so this is just a guess. The person I ordered from does have French Blue Marans.  Any guess to hen or roo. The age is about 3 weeks old. It's a really cute chick the pictures don't do justice but I have no clue what it is. Let the guessing game begin! Oh yeah and an update. I had an EE that I wasn't for sure about the sex of. Every one guessed roo except for Stang who turned out to be right that it was a pullet.
