Everyone is resting after the busy spring show season. My flock is now just trying to get through this heat wave and so far all is well. I've got lots of white tarps over head, lots of box fans, and big ice blocks in the waterers.

 

How is your flock doing?

 I heard Hail was coming down out your way? Sounds like you've got things under control as always!

 

So if it was a big huge tan colored egg you have a nice English Orpington :)  If it was a big white egg you have a Tetra Tint aka: Leghorn/Orp cross.

No hail yet, but the skies are getting gloomy looking.

 

So one is the leghorn/Orp cross. The other was a blue egg so aracona?

Black copper marans, blue marans, la fleche and blue/black/splash marans eggs are in the incubator now and ready in three weeks for purchase as straight run chicks. If we have a good hatch, we'll have chicks to sell. $8 a chick. Let me know if you are interested.  Thanks.

Hello CT peeps! smile.png  I hope everyone is enjoying the fabulous weather.

Saw this on craigslist in Branford = free = and with some tweaking could make a fine coop!
