The Golden Sebrights
The golden Sebrights of my flock have a much happier history than their silver counterparts. They were bought at the same swap meet location, a year before the silver...

Little Duckies!
After a lot of reading and researching on them, I decided to add ducks to my flock in 2014. I knew I didn’t want my ducks to be too much larger than my chickens and Guineas, so I started looking into smaller duck breeds. And then I discovered Call Ducks, the smallest...
The Reds
Olive
Olive is now the oldest hen in the flock. Because she's the last old hen, I decided to combine her section of my old hen page with the other reds' page. :)
Olive joined the flock with a group of production Rhode Island reds whose previous owner decided that they didn't like...
The Banties!
The bantams in my flock are few and far between. Because it's difficult (and expensive!) to find sexed bantams, and I simply prefer not to bring in adult birds, I only have a few bantam hens left. So I thought, hey, let's put them all together! Thus, the bantam page is born! :D...
Merlin and the Wyandottes
When we went to buy our chicks at TSC in the spring of 2010, they had three bins still occupied. One was filled with all sorts of red sexlinks, along with three little black chicks whose faces were splashed in gold. Another was 'assorted' Rhode Island reds (notice that...
NOTE: This page contains all my barred rocks except Freema, who has her own page here.
The Barred Rocks of Generation 6
I had wanted barred Plymouth Rocks since I first laid eyes on a picture of one. I thought they were so attractive with their bold stripes of black and white, their shapey...
Frou-Frou
The Frou-Frou Bird: A History
One fine day in May, 2012, my mom approached me and told me that she had ordered some chicks from Meyer Hatchery, and that if I had any requests I should go look at her order and change it as I pleased. She had ordered two partridge Plymouth Rocks...
NOTE: This page contains all my Easter-eggers except Merlin (who is here).
The Easter-Eggers of Generation 6
Easter-eggers were one of our first breeds and since we were down to three in 2011, we decided to replenish their population in our flock. I love how many different colors they can...
The Fab Five!
Generation 7, otherwise known as the Fab Five, came as a surprise to me. One day, my mom told me that she had ordered some chicks from Meyer Hatchery and that if I had any requests or changes in mind for the order, I should go look at their website.
She had ordered two Partridge...
The 2012 edition of the project is being moved to a new page to make room for new ideas and projects by other members. The original page is here.
100 Pictures of my Flock
Welcome to 100 Pictures of my Flock, the original Summer 2012 Edition! This was a project I tried during summer break...
Well, the title is supposed to be 'Kristin's Chickens: Betty'. Not sure why it removed the punctuation, but I guess that's that.
Betty
Betty joined my flock way back in May of 2011, in an order of Barred Rocks and 'Americanas' from a local hatchery. Though she had several Easter-egger...
100 Pictures of my Flock
2013 Edition
Welcome to 100 Pictures of my Flock, the 2013 edition!
100 Pictures of my Flock started out as a summer project in 2012, but I soon found that it was, well, surprisingly difficult to take 100 themed pictures over the course of only a few months. This...

My flock page (AKA The Important Stuff):
Pipd's Peeps!
About me: See this thread with a 7-years-later update in this post.
A couple things that have changed since then:
I graduated with my B.S. in Ecology in December 2018. Some departments got cut not long before then so I didn't end up with...
Welcome to the new BYC! To celebrate (and also because I'm trying to figure out everything I can, including all this stuff about making articles), here are the very best pictures I have of my Butterscotch Call Duck who thinks she's a tiny human, Crashie! :D
June 1, 2015: Crash was just 3 days...
