Dear Chicken Diary,
The BCM are 16 weeks old and halfway crowing every morning at about 7:30. The first 3 or 4 nights of the new coop, the BCM paced around until dark and then slept in the corner of the coop. I put a saw horse in there and they roosted on that for a night then moved over to the actual perch after that.
The hackles are becoming a brilliant copper color and expanding daily. Iām looking forward to when the saddle feathers fill out.
The whiting true blue are becoming aware of hawks after a missed attack last week. They seem to know the difference between a hawk and vulture already and will take shelter under the dry woodpile for their mid day siestas.
