Today I finally sold my australorp hen who started crowing a few months ago. She'll be in a flock with a rooster now so that'll be good. I am relieved to have that resolved. Shouldn't have problems with my neighbor now, knock on wood. So now I am down to 10 and that is a good number. Hope...

I finally got an inquiry on my australorp last night. Haven't heard back since I replied. Seriously, it was easily getting rid of my roosters on CL than her. Nice deal on the coops,Seth. I hope business picks up, Ron. I do know the feeling of an unstable employment future though, having...

Hi, back from our vacation to Minnesota. We had a nice time with family and friends. The weather was great. Not too hot or humid. Up north it was in the 60s and 70s for highs and in the south in the 70s to low 80s and low humidity. Sometimes it can be quite uncomfortable there with the...

I thought it said 4:15 on FB?

Finally cleaned out the coop this morning. So nice looking in there now with fresh shavings. Laila had a friend from kindergarten over today. Her mom and I were chatting and I was showing her the coop and run. She lives on 13 acres in antelope valley and is thinking about getting chickens. I...

Ok, so the silkie is innocent. My ugly silkie hen is just that. She is not the one crowing. I found out this morning. I was awakened at 5:39 a.m. and booked it out there. I took ugly silkie and put her in the cat carrier and put her in my office. Went back to bed. A few minutes later, I...

how nice. glad you had a good visit and that he's home safe! You look good, sheryl! Hope you've been feeling better.

ugh--111! I hose down the run a few times a day when it's hot here, too. congrats to her on her first egg!

swamp cooler! Don't let my girls hear about that. they would go on strike until I put one in their coop!

yes, they chose what they wanted. the balloon swords are still around the house. Laila got a sword later after the picture was taken. Well, I'm stumped by this he/she. my husband heard crowing this morning but later she sounded like she was doing the egg song this morning--just like a hen...

So, in chicken drama land, we have another story. I think I may have a very late blooming silkie rooster on my hands. My husband said he heard some crowing this morning. Then I heard a scratchy crow attempt myself. My non-bearded silkie has been looking fairly ugly lately--losing most of the...

congrats! Have fun with those little chicks. they grow really fast.

Ok, I am down to 11 chickens. From 28 to 11 in 1 week--that is pretty fast. Thanks, Aubrey, Brianne, and Missy for helping me rehome them.

It was a great event! Congrats again to you and Mark. my kids had a great time and they would have stayed much later if I would have let them. Oh, so sorry for you loss. I hope you do find the other one.

Does it have a memory card that you can take out? I bought a generic card reader that reads several different types of memory cards. It's pretty handy. I lost the cord to my camera awhile ago but this works great and I can use it to get photos from my sister and parents when they are here. the...

yes

me too! well, I must say that all the neighbors aren't bad. It's just not really a backyard chicken sort of neighborhood. The neighbors on each side of us are cool and they work a lot so they aren't just sitting around listening for chicken noises. that helps! the ones on the right have 5...

Missy has matched me up with one of her friends who will take the rest of the chickens I've designated for rehoming! thanks, Missy! Maybe I'll have to start buying eggs from my fellow BYCers now. Ok, probably not but we do eat lots of eggs in our house. I'm going to have to get tough on my...

I have to downsize the flock due to my neighbor. I had 2 lavenders and 2 black/lav splits. 1 of each went to aubrey and the other two are going to another BYC member on this thread. Now I'm trying to rehome several more birds to get down to 12-14 and see if that calms the situation down. I...

Missy, your puppy is adorable! so glad she's got a great home. welcome! this is a great group. really no need to count how many animals any of us have, is there? I would be so out of control if I lived in the country. I love the lav chicks too. Sadly as of tomorrow evening, I won't have...
