    New to BYC from Fort Wayne, IN

    Welcome! Technically no. But we are not the only people in town with stealth chickens.

    Do your chickens ever get really really mad at you?

    Our smallest chick decided to go broody. She was ticking off the other chickens because she was in the favorite nestbox. So we tried to get her out of there with our hands -which only got us pecked. So, I got a piece of corn stalk left from this summer and poked her in the butt. That chicken got...

    bird fight

    Update: we've had a hawk visit the girls twice (that we know of) now. It sits on top of the run we built for the hens. The first time, I had fed and watered them, but forgot to open back up the pop door. I can just imagine how they felt, cowering in the screened (but open) bottom of their coop...

    the big day

    It tasted like an egg. I had started buying free range eggs at local farms at least a year ago. So, I got used to really fresh eggs. I refuse to buy grocery store eggs to compare the two Harlyn was a big fan!

    We are 95% sure it's from our buckeye. She was born on Easter. The other option is the barred rock, same age, but she doesn't look ready to lay yet.

    bird fight

    I live in a older residential area of the city. I was riding my bike near the river and came across a turkey vulture and 4 crows arguing over who would get the dead squirrel. The vulture won. Not quite as exciting as the morning I looked out the window and a hawk was sitting on my fence, but...

    Ice Tea - Sweet or Unsweet?

    get out of the car and mix your MickeyD tea 1/2 sweet and 1/2 unsweet. Much better. It has to be about -10 before I switch to hot tea in the winter.

    Beekman Boys show

    On their website, there are links. One of them is when they were trying to get their chickens to go outside, because they only wanted to stay in the barn. Brent was inside, shooing the chicks out of the door. Josh was supposed to be outside keeping the chicks from running back in--instead, he...
