Hi! And welcome to our Spot here on BYC! We live in the rural area of Aztec/Flora Vista, New Mexico, which is nice since there aren't to many Livestock Restrictions for us. Most of our neighbors have chickens, goats, horses, cows, Peacocks, Donkeys, and all sorts of interesting critters.

The judge was very friendly and helpful answering questions. I do wish they kept an attendent in the building. I had to speak with a child harassing the birds.
I know how the kid thing can go... Granted not all kids are bad but every now and then you get the ones that when out in...
Is it possible he has a little Bantam in him? One of our neighbors has a bunch of Bantam's one Roo that I've seen so far and the coloring is very similar to you gorgeous boy... The body shape if definitely different than Banty up the road from me and I believe the leg color is off (I usually see...

I think I know which article you're referring to. If I'm right, it was only for his 3 day wake, and he was embalmed through a special process: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26290833/
But yes, either way, a little morbid for my taste...
They've done it twice that I can think of. The...
I have a simmilar issue with our roo when he comes in at night to sleep. I have limited him to the bathroom and put fresh newspaper down in the area he mainly occupies. I know it gets smelly and gross but at least the newspaper is easy to get up and in the trashcan the next day.
Please don't take this as me getting angry at anyone's choices here. I completely agree with everyone whose ever had to deal with Funeral Directors who are only in it for the money...
While most Funeral Homes are definitely in the business purely for the money I have to say the company I work...
Here's a couple more close up's of his Comb Sorry it took me so long to get them (CWCD decided that the camera looked tasty;) ) I'm sorry if I can't honestly say his comb is a single or not (I'm pretty DUH when it comes to anything other than a dog or a cat ) I was hoping to have learned more...
I chose both for a few reasons....
1. I live in New Mexico but my family is on the East Coast in PA and NJ, so I'd like my kids and my hubby to be able to "take me home" cheaply and easily if we are still living in NM IE: Cremation.
2. If we are "Home" in PA I'd like to have a Traditional...
Our "little Chicken we call Dog" has grown quite a bit since I was able to be here last! He is deffinately a Roo with a very hearty crow at 5 A.M. every morning now. His feathers are comming in beautifully with the prettiest shades of tan or "gold" I have seen in a while. our only question left...
We wanted to go but had some issues crop up with work, kids, and an ex from hell so couldn't go Hopefully next year will be better and we can make it there though.

Hey neighbor! What breeds do you have? I have LF Cochins and Ameraucanas.
I'm really not sure what our little Peep is lol. This is our first chicken, so I've been looking for any and all kinds of info on raising, breeds, sexing, you name it lol! This is our Chicken we call Dog aka...
I kinda have an "O.K." from the hubby to get at least one more chicken:D His only request is if we do get one more they both stay outside in our makeshift temporary "pen". He is now calling me "the bird lady" because CWCD likes to perch on my shoulder and occasionally on the top of my head lol...
I would like a few more really CWCD has been so interesting to have around, I think it would be cool to have some friends for her/him. My husband gave me a dirty look when I mentioned another one lol, but persuasion can be a powerful thing I hope to have at least one more before the season is...

Thats about how it looks when CWCD chases the kids across the yard lol! It's the craziest pet I have ever had but so much fun at the same time! I think I have more fun with the bird than the kids do ROFL. At least until Daniel and Thomas get back from their fathers house then CWCD is...
LOL Thank you for all the welcomes:D We just have the one ....so far;) I did ask my husband yesterday though how mad he'd get if I brought home another one haha! I got some pictures posted in the Gender or Breed section now as well. TAhis is our first Chicken and the learning experience is...
