    Awww babies! It's so much nicer when they have a good mother to care for them. Definitely cuts back on the work. My birds are molting. William looks like he's been 1/2 plucked & he's being extra mean lately. Olive's got white old lady feathers now. You can see where the color is leaving her...

    Did your broody hatch any eggs? I always wondered about the bigger birds hatching wo breaking eggs. Obviously it works but seems liked they break some. Sounds like the turkey business is booming. Are you going to keep them or sell them for processing? We had a bunny build a nest by the...

    What is it like where you all are? In Northeast Ohio it's 72° overnight tonight, and tomorrow (Monday) it will be 95. It looks like we're not supposed to be getting rain until Wednesday which they moved up because it wasn't supposed to start until Saturday. I put an ac unit in the kids' room bc...

    Oh good. That means I have it going the right way. I always figured it was better to have it blowing in because of the air might actually blow and move around them. It was so hard today I feel so bad. I'm going to throw some watermelon rind out to them tomorrow morning and put a frozen water...

    Great update! That's some impressive flock growth. Loved the pictures. I've never seen a wooly chicken before. Glad things are going well for you. The tornado situation hasn't been good for this are lately.

    Just popping in to say hi! Hope everybody is doing well. My oldest daughter graduated from college last month and both kids are home for the summer with their cats. It's a very tight squeeze in our small two bedroom apartments. Attempting to house hunt but these prices are ridiculous. We've only...

    Wow 30s! That sounds nice. Mine don't go out when there's snow on the ground so they're going to be blocked in until at least Wednesday and they should be fine. I just checked them. The coop was at 20 w no extra heat. The sun is helping a lot. I did put the space heater in bc my birds are almost...

    Same. I was wondering about Nunny.. I know we've all gotten busy though and figure she's just out living her life too.

    Hi all. Hope everybody is staying warm with this polar vortex garbage. I stopped into ease my paranoia about my chickens and the cold. It is a cozy 7° here in Northeast Ohio and now that I'm down to only five chickens after a loss this past fall I'm more concerned about them being warm enough...

    I like to think the same, though sometimes I do worry, esp when I know someone is ill or older. I'd like to introduce everyone to my newest grandson! His name is Pistachio. 2nd pic is of him w his cousin Kirk.

    Oh wow. It's been forever! Now we just need Stacy, Smuv, and about 10 other people to stop in. (Jealous of your axols!) Really happy to see you around. I'm so sorry you're going though all of that. Maybe a cute pixie cut for the future so as not to tempt fate. Same. It's such a great idea...

    Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

    What a great idea! I know there's been some people over the years I had been missing. Things are OK here chicken wise. I'm down to 6 chickens. We lost Toothless last fall to sour crop that was caught too late, Clover to a coyote/ wolf attack, and Loki to natural causes. Kids are grown - oldest...

    It's balmy 18⁰ in NE Ohio. When I woke up this am it was 3⁰. I hope everyone is staying warm. My brothers family lives south of Dallas and his wife shared that it was 16⁰ there yesterday so it looks like everyone gets to suffer this time.

    Both my children enjoy telling me that I am the grandmother to their pets. And I am perfectly okay with that over human grandchildren right now.

    Interesting. I'm going to have to look into this. I'd seen the side wall panels before but I don't want my mean girls hogging it. Hanging it above sounds like a good solution. We're down to 7 so the community heat is an issue now. Winter arrived today and my younger kid is worried her favorite...
