My name is Carol Junes. I have recently moved to a place where I am finally, once again, allowed to have my chickens. This spring, my wonderful fiance and our two girls spent a day building the girls their coop and then started looking for hens. We started our flock in late March with the two...
Just an update... The trip went well. We did hit some bad weather on the way down but we did make it safely. I just want to say again that I am very blessed to have the two girls that I do because we don't have the money for Christmas this year and neither one of them has complained about it...

My Polish Rooster

I only have one rooster and one hen. I'm hoping to hatch out some of their eggs this spring. I'd also like to find a couple more hens for him. I love the polish!
Just thought I'd share and request any feedback. This is a new closeup pic of my barnie sleeping on the roost. It does show some of the neck coloring and barring. This was taken at night in the coop but colors are pretty close.
