    [The Shire] Our growing flock!

    Welcome to the world, Lucky! You’re REALLY early! 😂 I had set these all to hatch on the 8th. Oregano must have been secretly sitting on this one egg for 3 days prior I assume. He was sitting in the egg turner in one of the divider circles so calmly. He’s running around just fine thankfully! 🎉...

    [The Shire] Our growing flock!

    Well Oregano a little over a week ago decided to start acting like she was going broody and fully committed about 6 days ago. Now, we didn't have hatching eggs so I panic ordered some. 🤣 But since it could take a week for them to even get here due to the holidays if they were even sent...

    [The Shire] Our growing flock!

    So much going on, but so much joy to be had! Everything has been going well! Y’all, I love them so much. 😂 The final batch of chicks we’d hatched are due to go out just around Christmas! All integrations have gone so smoothly. There’s normal pecking order stuff, but 0 blood! I know we won’t...

    [The Shire] Our growing flock!

    Whoof, it's been one heck of a busy time period. All is well! We're working bit by bit on getting the full roof on the run and we're working on a permanent run for the Bantams. 🥰 Appa integrated SO smoothly! He was see-no-touch for a month and a half, probably longer, but we were admittedly...

    City Slicker Goes to the County Fair (somewhat picture heavy)

    Truly. </3 But we're going to get more Silkie eggs soon (hopefully try again with Seramas if I am less afraid...) and we're definitely naming one Cranberry. It was our biggest chick loss ever at once (and we've really not lost many for the amount of chickens we have) so hubby's trying to...

    City Slicker Goes to the County Fair (somewhat picture heavy)

    So cute! We sadly had a bad heat lamp incident the other day and lost a handful of chicks. </3 The Seramas were in the losses and I'm devastated. Hubby had moved the heat lamp into the brooder to make it a lot easier for us to move the brooder/open it, but the heat lamp ended up falling and I...

    Fanciful Frigid Fall Hatch-Along

    To each their own for sure! 😂 I adore sphinx cats but also 200% get they’re not for everyone! 🥰 But yes, they’re all spoiled pets here! I’m soooo excited to see them grow! Absolutely LOVE them!

    Fanciful Frigid Fall Hatch-Along

    It's been a hectic day and I forgot to update. Cornucopia hatched by the time we got up this morning! I'll be taking pics when we transport 'em all out to the brooder tonight. 🥰

    Fanciful Frigid Fall Hatch-Along

    Right?! Ugh. I’m in love! 🥰💙 I know NN was possible in the eggs, but didn’t expect one. What a great surprise! And #42 is a stunner already! I can’t wait to see what they end up looking like! 🥰😳
