All because a cat wanted a chick dinner! The coop was made with all recycled material. Not a piece purchased besides the paint, fencing, and locks.
The "new girl" in pic two came wandering into my field and had been just living there by herself for awhile until I caught her. She was beat up, her back covered in sores, fur missing from her back/neck, and super skinny. Neighbor who lives 150 yds away has like 6 roosters that I've seen (where Floyd came from I think), no hens, so that's probably why she looked so terrible. I hope it's not mean that I took her. I mean, she WAS living in my field eating the horse's feed. I'm not giving her back to that guy because he has no care for his chickens. He doesn't feed them, give them a place to sleep, or collect eggs.
In my brooder I have an Ameraucana that I got from a sweet lady down the road. She should lay blue eggs. A California White (which was supposed to be a tetra tint), Tetra Tint, RIR, and a Light Brahma (who I think may be a boy
)
Well that looks like the end of the story! Thanks everyone who helped me through raising Floyd. You can look at him all grown up and see a piece of yourself
