Very active birds that love to forage. I love watching mine jump up for flies & mosquitos. :) Good job on the pics! How old are they now?
My camera is broken & I don't know when I'll get a replacement. :(

Btw, is that a French bulldog? So adorable! :D

They are just four weeks on Monday. Love them so far! They are all business in that run- Flies don't stand a chance. Really great to see.

That's our Staffordshire Bull Terrier puppy in the last photo - he's 5 mos old now. He was hopeful that this was yet another of mum's creative places to leave a squeaky toy. A whole little chicken run full of squeaky toys, in fact. He was disappointed in, but accepting of, the answer. :). He does all of our chicken chores with me every day. Thanks! He is adorable!

:lol: Squeaky toys! Hopefully the novelty will wear off over time. ;)
 
The best I can do with iPhone. :p This shows how great Malines are. This is a mixed age flock from 8 week olds (of several breeds) to 3 year olds. Their calm influence even extends to my 3 year old BSL hen. :) I guess majority rules! :lol: Birds are currently yarded due to previous fox attack. :(

Thanks Chadsky! :) This fox needs to be gone! I'm all for deterring, but this one is too brazen & not intimidated by my dogs. Anyway, here's some pics of the 8 week olds. Using my iPhone until I get a new camera.

All yellow traits are fading out, as I suspected they would. ;) Remains to be seen which new line cockerel I'll keep. I have one more that wasn't cooperating for the camera. :p
