    Confounded by Sicilian buttercup chicks shunning their heat cave

    My buttercup cross is the one between the Cochin feet. That little chick made it all the way up 5 1/2 feet to the high roost before she was even feathered.

    I have a half blind Odin too! Mine is an older gentleman I got when he was around 2 retired from a small scale breeder. He had been in a fight with an up and comer cockerel and lost a good portion of his sight in the eye. Luckily he is still great at watching over the ladies. He has lots of room...
