    My hubby had a mug made for my birthday. It’s my favorite boy Gomez. Hubby gets brownie points of course but yall… just look at this guy. He’s a fine looking rooster!

    Egg song

    Sometimes my girls lay really big eggs. If I was that hen, I’d be screaming too. “Whew I lived! I thought I was gonna die!”

    Egg song

    It’s crazy! The hens love my little guy. They have choices, from him being my smallest to my biggest a 15lb jumbo. (And many in between) the ladies prefer Gomez. I watched one of my other roosters buck up on him, and my hens ganged up on the other rooster. Gomez never had to ruffle a feather...

    Egg song

    ...Gomez the band was decent. Buuut my little dude is name after Gomez Addams. His flock mate is Morticia and their kiddos are Wednesday and Pugsley. ( although I’m pretty positive they belong to 2 other roosters). Both parents are white and the babies are jet black and silver. *who’s gonna tell...

    Egg song

    @tlcmurphy do by chance remember the cartoon “the swooner crooner”? It’s was looney tunes I think…one rooster looked like Frank Sinatra, the other Bing Crosby. I swear I have that here.

    Egg song

    So he was managing 28 hens. He was running himself crazy. So when (if you remember me talking about it) my leghorn Lilith turned out to be Mooney, he integrated perfectly. I was apprehensive about Gomez and him fighting but it worked out well! I think Gomez needed the help lol.

    Egg song

    Poor Gomez nothing. When he was a cockerel he sure wasn’t complaining, he gave my hens a run for their money. Now he’s older and not as..fluent in the language of love..the hens are all up in face. What’s even funnier, he’s a bantam Cochin, the hens are standard size. It’s hysterical!

    Egg song

    Ohhhhh I guess that’s what my rooster was doing! I thought he went in to tell them to shut up lol. What he actually said was “ I’m here! For all things holy I’m here! Now please hush!!” And imagine him grumbling under his breath “have to come in here to escort them 5 feet to door.. never get any...

    Why are my hens migrating across the coop?

    I seriously don’t understand. Before I got into chickens everything I read, everything ppl said was make sure you have space. 10 ft per bird or something. Well I’ve got the space…and they prefer to be all squished. I was thinking well I could use the unused side for feed storage, but you KNOW...

    Why are my hens migrating across the coop?

    Yes that’s true. There’s always that one hen! For me it’s LuLu. She does sleep on a roost to herself. It’s 5 feet long. One of my pullets jumped up there with her, and I watched Lu side shuffle all the way across the board just to peck the pullet in the head. And I had a broody, a little bantam...

    Egg song

    I never understood that. If I was laying eggs, and predators ate the eggs (and myself) I’d lay quietly. Why do they announce it to the world?!

    Why are my hens migrating across the coop?

    Idk why ppl are like space space space! My chickens squish up together and fight over 2 nesting boxes (I have 8). I’m like come girls spread out, stretch your legs! Ooo look at the space! They look at me “thanks but no thanks, we like being nose to vent”!

    Egg song

    Why it’s called an egg song I have no idea, it should the egg scream. I’ve got some hens that screech, some that kind of loudly growl, and others bawk bawk bawk. What’s great (not) is when one hens starts “singing” all the others join in. It sounds like a predator HAS to be in the coop freaking...

    What age do cockerels usually start Crowing?

    Agreed! My Cochin bantam rooster were born the same day. Ambrose starting crowing at 6 weeks, his brother didn’t start crowing until he was 19 weeks. I think it’s because Ambrose was doing the crowing. My primary Cochin started crowing at 10 weeks, and his son didn’t start until he was 20 weeks...

    Why are my hens migrating across the coop?

    My coop is big ish, 40x30x10. Ish. I’ve got 11 hens on one side with my primary rooster, and 14 pullets on the other side with my secondary rooster. The coop is completely open, (on the inside) the sides are divided by big window above a shelf. And another door. I leave both the door and window...
