I moved him away from the water when I was playing with his feet, and he flapped his wings until he was able to get himself back to the water.

Brand new to the chicken life! 3 ISA Brown and 2 Amberlink pullets (so say TSC), 1 each straight run Cornish Rock and Red Ranger. Just purchased on Friday. Hoping for hens so my "meat" birds can live out their time as poor, but happy, layers!!

Berks here!! Make sure to post lots of pictures of your adorable new flock! Good choices! I've had several of townline's Isa Browns and I LOVE them, some of the sweetest hens I've ever had and definitely my favorite strain of red sexlinks. I'm raising them again this year (4th year in a row) and again they're just as sweet as always. Killer layers too! enjoy them

My second order of Ameraucanas from John Blehm are arriving today !!

A lot of bantam Lavender Ameraucanas in this shipment. I hope they all arrive safely in this chilly weather.

On a related note, I am hatching *lots* of Blue and Black Ameraucanas. if anyone close to Pottstown is interested, I will make you a great deal on some. They are good 4-H birds, if you know anyone in 4-H looking for showable chicks.

Haven't gotten around to doing anything in my garden. I glanced at it the other day and noticed tons of small weeds starting. Since it is fenced and right below my chicken run, I opened the pop door I have in the dividing fence.

Chickens are happy and I don't need to cultivate!

They will not be happy when I need to close that door to plant MY vegetables.

I would splint it, they have incredible healing ability if given a chance.

They will forever try to get back in for the goodies, but I would let them enjoy it now also!
