No updated weights, but I thought I'd post some pictures. I'm hoping I can weigh them tomorrow, but given our busy weekends, I'm not holding my breath...
So far I've lost 5 KK's, so I'm down to 47 birds, but I think the loss of birds has more to do with our wretched weather than the lack of viability of the birds. It has rained and rained and rained and rained. And it's been chilly too - in the 30's and 40's at night. The past couple of days have been nice, and the birds have loved it.
They really seem to be enjoying their big yard. They are pretty good foragers, but like most chickens they'd rather eat crumbles. I can always tell when the feeders are empty because all the birds are out in the yard scratching like crazy.
