Thought I’d share the artistry of my ladies this Halloween eve. I’d love to see your chicken’s pumpkins if you tried this this year! A before and after.
I thought for sure they'd start when I was on vacation, so I was super excited to see I was wrong! I stalk them now to see if I can catch any other girls laying. One other gal has started since I started this post. :D
She’s a crested cream legbar (but I think she’s a mix). She’s much smaller than her 3 other CCL sisters that I got at the same time. How old are your pullets? My gals just hit 22 weeks.
My smallest chicken has become our first layer of our flock. We’ve had these gals since March and she has given me 3 eggs since august 14th. I thought it was fun seeing her first smaller egg versus her egg I got from her today. 😁 we had a second gal lay today for the first time, but our littlest...
I moved mine out later than 3 weeks, but if it helps, the nights dipped into the mid to high 40s for the first week they were outside. They did perfectly fine.
Wanted 3 originally but then chicken math happened to account for potential losses so we went with 6. And we currently have 6 seemingly healthy 7ish week olds. 2 Bielefelders, cream legbars and some “crosses” according to the farm I got them from. 😁
That's adorable! I may add it to my "To-Do" list for what to make for my little ladies when they get older. :D I love watching them peck around. Did you make this or purchase it?
