Mahonri, Just to let you know.... yes Drekki Jr is noisy...
I have been sleeping in the family room at our house while our new born is warm and cozy in our bedroom with my wife.
So anyway, I didnt want to throw Jr out in the 28degree nights right off the bat... So I had him in a dog kennel in...
I have done this before and it was very easy, a lot easier than it would seem. I did this to Geoferry the Blue Wheaten Ameraucana Roo I had from Mahonri about 8 months ago.
I have not seen anything like this "Fray" issue you peeps are talking about. I have hatched about 60 Icelandics I lost about 10 of them to the cold fronts that come through every now and then, like the one that came through 2 weeks ago, it was 22degrees and froze alot of the younger ones, I was...
So I need to sell off some of my Icelandic Roo's.. I have 7 too many. Most of them are from NYD. I will need to take some pics to see if anyone is interested. If you are interested in them please let me know. Thanks and stay tuned for some pics in the following days.
Went to check on the livestock before calling it a night and found that my broody hen that hatched 6 chicks about 3 weeks ago had pecked at two of her chicks and they are bleeding. The first chick has both wings that are bloody and missing feathers. It's back is bloody and also it's butt. The...
Ahh nice... Yea.. This cold weather was a first for me.. I was born and raised in Phx.
I think I lost a total of 7 chickens this winter, due to the cold. Most of them were 3month olds, but a few were older, just smaller.
But thats ok.. I have around 100 total right now.. with more on the way.
Glad to hear its just about there... Wish I could have stayed longer. I will have to make an apointment just to come by and see it completed.
Good luck on the full day of patients, after a long day of physical work.

Yea, they are actually thinking about moving to a bigger property so they can do more.
Thanks, My pic is from my wedding at the LDS Temple in Snowflake, AZ. (2008)
Around 10" total, But it was melting fast, High was only 34 yesterday but it was still melting... Oh well. I am ready for the snow to be gone. Then I can continue life, instead of surviving winter life.
We have about 8inches right now, Storm total is around 12inches for Heber, AZ. high of 34degrees.
Goats are hiding in the pens.
Chickens are still in coops (lost a 3month old roo that fell in the water inside the coop) Gonna keep the rest of them in the coops for another hour.
1 month old...
