Well a blue egg layer how nice. It wants nothing to do with me. It has siblings but I don’t think I have a decent picture because the Minorca is a camera hog. The two others don’t have bad hairdos and don’t look like that one. But as chicks they were chipmunks. All “ Americauna pullets” 😂
And finally, my sidekick the Minorca? Please tell me pullet because I’m positive I heard someone crow today and I want to know who. There are six others but I didn’t want to be picture overloading
Everything is supposed to be pullets and we all know TSC never gets that wrong. These babies are 6-7 weeks old. What on earth is that first brown one with the bad hairdo breed and sex? The Dominque female? Next picture New Hampshire
update!
YOWZA!
I got the 2 joule charger today and swapped it out. I feel very confident that nothing is going to go through it .
I tested it with a blade of grass and OUCH!

Now I can sleep easy tonight. :)
I ordered a 2 joule charger. And I bought some chicks. Going to tractor supply without “adult supervision” is always an adventure. I got the cutest ‘Barred Rick straight run’ chicks! I even showed the guy a picture and told him he had his signs wrong but he wouldn’t switch it so? Buyer beware...
I have three that are feathered like the one on the left and then the mostly feathered one on the right. So, do you think I have three that will are Girls and one boy or three boys and one girl?
ETA 3 weeks later photos added a few posts down
thepen area that I currently am using the 0.1 charger is 50 ft by 100ft. Three strands.
I bought the lights off amazon. The more you buy the cheaper they are-
This one says 0.1 joules, and it’s a 5 mile fence charger. I do need a stronger one don’t I?
I want to get ( out of stock) the 10 mile 2.1 joule charger. The TSC guy told me it was not recommended as it is too strong for a 50 lb dog. BUT I want any dog that touches it to know that was a bad...
I got the motion sensor spot lights up Around the pen- I am very pleased with them. No sneaking around from the woods - animal predator or human
( and yes, my arm brushed the electric fence wire when I creeped around to the back of the pen to see when the spot light would detect me :frow)
ETA...
I thought I’d come back to say I want a stronger charger- I haven’t had any problems since this one but I’m not convinced this would ward off the neighborhood dogs. This one had a chicken on the picture so I picked it in my panic.
what size do you all use? This one says it’s 0.1 joules - adding...
