I got my first 3 chickens in mid June this year. :) I'm writting a thesis about learning abilities of slovenian chicken breeds and this 3 ladies were some of the chickens I worked with. They used to live inside a barn but now they've became backyard chickens. It took them a few days to get used to the grass, natural light and temperature.


This is Črči, a Styrian hen


Miss Res, another Styrian hen and the QUEEN of our backyard


Miss Red again


And Slovenian Barred hen, know as 'the Tank' and 'bottomless pit' She could eat her weight in food. :)

They're just shy of 12 months. Hopefully they will molt soon (the bald patches were done mostly by roosters back at the farm).
Their coop is still being built (1 more door missing and a couple of varnish paints) so they're still staying in dog crates during the night and they roam our backyard during the day. :)


That's it for now. :)
 
Greetings, Polona, and

! Happy you joined our community! Those are some interesting looking chickens! Good luck with your thesis!
 
Thank you! :)

This is Črči, showing off her skills during my thesis research (she had 4 balance pods in 3 colors, red, blue and 2 yellow and she had to pick one yellow, step on it and then step on the other yellow without stepping down or on the other 2 colors).
