One of my young pullets that I got on May 2nd has laid her first egg on Thursday! And another yesterday. She came up on the upper deck and was scootching around in a corner. Looking around. I went and got a nest box (crate) and put it in the corner. Eevee hopped right in and laid an egg...
Refreshing, that's for sure!! Nice not to sweat, lol. My walk with my dog was very pleasant.
i had a hen that went blind. She got along pretty good, but yes put her in the coop at night.
TSC mislabeled their chicks... I forgot what the bin was labeled, but it wasn't Sapphire Gem. Bought 3 chicks of I thought a breed of Delaware. Did research and found Blue Hen Delaware. But still really didn't match. The hens legs turned black. Funny tho, the rooster's legs stayed yellow...
Exactly! Don't think Josie ever saw Bozo's circus. :D Think it came from a Beanie Baby. She named all my chicks. Besides Kazowie, I have Kitty, Nugget, Eevee, and Sylveon.
We have lots of deer here. Lots. They don't touch my hostas in my front yard.
Gonna be a hot one today. Was out the door by 6am to walk with my dog, and already very humid. Was sweating before I got the first mile in. Hurried and cleaned the chicken coop and now plan on staying in for the...
Wonderful news, Karen (?, did I remember right?) Beautiful cat and roosters.
Hot and muggy here. Went to the Scrap fest in Old Town, Lansing. So cool! Sculptures all made of scrap metal!
It was a perfect weather day to have the gathering. Met a new wonderful family. They were a delight. Vince, Irene, (?) Sophea, (sp) and Vivian (I think) Great to talk to everyone again.
My pup's name is Smokey Joe.
Next year, I do hope our regulars are able to make it. We did miss you all.
So sorry to hear that John. Always enjoy talking to you and Cindy.
I got my new chicks on May 2. Just a few days old. Pretty sure one was a roo real fast. Well, that lil sh&t is mating! And this morning, it's crowing!
Chickenstock is just around the corner!! Hope we have a good turn out. It's always fun to sit and talk chicken and share stories.

Hey, everyone. Haven't been getting notices of posts.
Been busy. Lots going on. Hubby's health isn't good right now, so I'm doing most of the outdoor chores, and trying to keep the house presentable, also. Did manage to go on a short camping trip to Frankenmuth. He stayed at the camper...
We had some very strong wind. The thunder and lightening was non stop for about an hour. We spent time in the basement. A tornado hit about a mile and a half from us. Near where the semi turned over, and all the electric poles were downed. Husband couldn't get to work. The four roads he...
I broke down and bought 5 chicks from TSC. I brought my dog there to give him a bath and those chicks are so darn cute! Went home and got my chick stuff down and cleaned out the brooder and went back and got the chicks. I had two hens pass recently.
