    Houston, we have an egg!

    Just a little tip for future pictures: Take your egg (or whatever your subject is) outside , preferably on a sunny day. Thanks so much for the help Serrin! Another egg was laid this morning, I tried taking some pics outside, but still didn't get the color. Oh well .. I think it's my camera...

    Houston, we have an egg!

    Fun with chickens - OR - Can you tell who is who?

    Today is back to school .. so I had to run and grab the kids. Some of you got it, great deductive reasoning! Chicken A is Olive .. she was the largest as a baby and had the fuzziest face .. she still has the biggest beard, but now she's the smallest chicken. Chicken B is Clover .. she was...

    Fun with chickens - OR - Can you tell who is who?

    This spring like a lot of others here we 'adopted' a few tiny fuzz balls. It's almost the end of summer now and the chickens are doing great. My girls are almost all grown up now and I think they all turned out to be beautiful hens. Thankfully no one turned out to be a rooster. So far no one is...

    Anyone ?? Edited 5/21 with new pictures at the end. EE, hens or roo?

    Here's new pics, they are 7 1/2 weeks now and out in their coop/run. Olive's comb is a little bigger and a bit pinker than the others, but not really red either. What do you guys think? Olive : Olive is the darker one on the ground, Hazel is the lighter on the fence : Hazel ...

    Udated with new pics .. about 85% now .. Chicken coop and run.

    Thanks StrawberryHouseMouse ! Yesterday and today I finished up a lot of the outside. I still need to add two fake grid on the windows and clean up a little paint over spray, but for the most part I'm done. I'm sure I'll still fuss out here adding stuff, but I need to get all the inside...

    Thanks everyone, I'll do a final update when I get the rest done. I've been really enjoying putting this together. The girls are thrilled to be out of their brooder and have more space. I put stall dry down in the run this morning and pine shavings on top of that. I can't wait to get the sink...

    Thanks Catalina I'm up to being about 85% done .. It's starting to pull together in inside. The 'girls' have moved in .. they have graciously allowed another tenant we were already housing to share their new digs. Everything that looks like it needs to be painted yet, does .. like the...
