    Bunch of broody girls!!

    I have never seen so many broody hens and I’m at a loss on what to do? Literally more than half my flock in both coops have been sitting. They act paralyzed when I take them out of the coop.

    Help!! Can anyone point me in the right direction on what to do? My hens eye had what appeared to be spit in it a few months ago. She has been eating and drinking as well as acting normal. It started to look like an abscess, I’ve been using the microbial vet RX and gave her the drops as well...

    Opinions on this rescue baby!!

    My friend brought me a chick today that her dog apparently left on the door step. Thankfully I have full faith that this sweet baby will recover just fine, lots of bald spots and a small scratch under the eye.

    I’ll get better pictures in the morning!! The first one of these was taken a little while back and the second one was taken the same day as the originals. Bc this is baby that is a complete mystery and we don’t have any idea how we ended up with 5 blrw (other than a mix up)‍♀️

    Babies!!!

    Love the name!! How’s her temperament? They are undeniably a beautiful breed!! And yes, we will most likely be separating as we have 4 other bantams that are still fairly young for them to “hang” with
