    2 out of 5 ain't bad!

    So my 5 new bantam hens spent a few days sequestered in their new coop, and today were allowed to venture out into the rest of their enclosure. I went out to check on them when I got home tonight, and 2 of the 5 (the Japanese and the D'Anvers) acutally managed to go back up the ramp and into the...

    Rural King obviously messed up

    So I bought some chicks at Rural King a few weeks ago. 4 EE's, 4 Silver-laced Wyandottes, and 2 "buff Orpingtons." Well, the "buff Orps" are black w/gold streaks, so wondering if anyone can identify what they actually are?
