One of my chickens died after molting. I don't know why. No reason at all. She just was happy and healthy and then was gone.
Then a few weeks later, there was another one. Walking off balance, I started treating with molting immune boosters. She got better. She seemed to get better. No problems...
5 are Columbian Wyandotte's (there is 1 that is all white - not sure she was what I asked for, but they were huddled together so we took her too) and the other 3 are Blue Laced Red Wyandotte's. I have not come up with any names yet.
My other older 8 hens names are: Missy, Roseanne, Rhoda...
Another hot day here in north florida, seven thirty four p m currently eighty nine degrees in my area... my girls are not laying very many eggs and nothing. I do seems to help them in their heat struggles right now. But I went out there and they showed me some love, and I got lots of pictures.

We've got new (more) chicks eight days ago, and I just wanted to share some of their cute pictures. Now we have a total of 16 :) 5 Columbian Wyandotte & 3 Blue Laced Red Wyandotte's.
Chicken Spa Day Gone Wrong
So today, I learned that Barbie (my chicken, not the doll) does NOT do butt baths.
Lavender? Perfect angel.
Barbie? Full-on clucking mad diva.
Cluck cluck. Flap flap. Hit hit.
Before I knew it, she flapped me in the chest and clawed my finger like I had insulted her...
