    What did you do with your flock today?

    decided to let the trio of LB Leghorn Bantams out today to enjoy the evening. Been hectic so none of my exhibition birds have gotten outside time in a bit.

    making a hen go broody

    oh I'm gonna try this! I have a load of exhibition quality eggs from my SC White Leghorn flock and a cochin hen that went broody last May. It's warm where I live so a March hatch would be perfect!

    Dominant rooster kicked down in pecking order - What should I do?

    Ah, the fall of a king. I've seen it happen with my flock before. As the others said, separation or removal are the only real options if things fail to work out. IF you choose to separate, I recommend giving your older roo a larger flock and leaving some of the younger hens for the OEGBmix.

    Lakeshore Egger??

    that's ok! Marans tend to have fleshy/pinkish legs and feet, and Deleware's have yellow feet and legs like the sixth pic. My best guess is a cross of the two breeds, or a dirty footed Deleware with lemon genes

    was unusually warm and sunny today in central California, so I busted the drone out and got a nice shot of the ranchette. peep the coops by the wonky pine tree lol

    Lakeshore Egger??

    she has that light lemon coloring a lakeshore egger would have but lacks the crest. She may be a production-quality Marans or even a Delaware with the lemon cuckoo gene. Do you have pics of what she looked like as a chick?
