    I have very odd looking Barred Rocks....or do I? Guess who game.

    i looked at the pictures before i even read your post and immediately thought, oh those are gold laced Wyans. Except the last one... I will wager they had a mixed bunch of chicks in the Bin on accident, or they had not swapped the labels for them yet? 🙈 on the brightside 😂, they will be very...

    Little update: Butterfinger is still alive, slightly lethargic, but no longer in respiratory distress.. so fingers crossed! 🙈 She actually came out and walked around the shop for a bit, albeit slowly... trying to give her some egg and Kaytees but doing cautiously well today! Was a long night...

    New additions, take 2

    So we have 5 hens.. they are amazing layers, and everyone loves them, including my dogs... So I bought a new coop because when I first started with chickens I bought a cheap one that was falling apart and would probably not last another winter (since renovated and being utilized)... Well, my...
