    RIR laid

    Our RIR laid just a yolk this morning, she has always laid the whole egg, she was quite when I let the hens out this morning, I know that after they lay their egg they stand still for a while than take off like they are on fire. She is usually the first one at the door fussing to get out, she...

    Leghorns

    I am convinced that the Leghorns we bought 3 weeks ago are not leghorns at all but roadrunners in disguise. If they even see us in the window they run across the yard. Sometimes they run across the yard to get treats but only it is from a safe distance. Maybe by the end of next month they will...

    Got it....Nope, I got it

    Well I just watched our hens playing keep away with a Garter snake, funny to see them snatch it from one hen then the other hens chase that hen, I think that snake has traveled about a mile now without even being on the ground.

    Six days

    It has been six days the leghorns are doing well, running away every time they see a person even if they see you in the window they take off running. If I even look like I'm coming their way they run. The first day we had to block their escape route so we could get them into the coop after that...
