Hey everyone not much going on around here. Lots of babies with the Mamas and the meat chicks are really getting big. I processed the rooster last week because he kept beating up the girls. Its really quiet around here without him! I may go this weekend and pick up a new one! BYC isn't...

Prayer MC. Hope you are alright!

30 meat chicks - 2 weeks old 5 Bitty's chicks 4 weeks old (I think) 9 Bertie's chicks 1 1/2 weeks old 15 Beulah and Eloise's chicks 2 days old = 59 total chicks!

Wow! Thank goodness he didn't get breakfast though! I have heard a couple of hawks near our property and usually the crows are right behind them! It is a risk with free range.

Most likely we will be processing between 8-9 weeks. I plan on the 7&8 year olds helping as well. Even the 2&4 year olds know that we eat our chickens and where they come from. I don't think it is bad at all! Our 3 batches are going to overlap a little bit so it is going to be important to...

Mortie, coming from you that could be a little scary! ;) But sure why not!

These girls have 7 days left.

This is our first year with meaties. I mean we have processed extra cockerels but not specifically raised chicks for the freezer. I'm amazed at how fast they have grown in just a week! I'm hoping to get them into a hoop coop by the weekend and then when they get some feathers we will start...

Thanks Cheeka. Maybe by tomorrow I'll start feeling better. :( The chicks are awesome and she doesn't mind me messing with them so its awesome!

About 4 hours North up next to Va. We are about 4 minutes from the state line.

A individual pictures of a few of Bertie's chicklets. Bitty's babies are getting big!

The meaties are definitely a big undertaking. I am filling the feeder twice a day and I have two quart mason jar waterers that I am having to fill two or three times a day. They are also little poop factories and I will have to re-clean tge brooder coop when I get them moved into the new hoop...

Hey everyone! BYC hasn't been working for me lately. I'm currently over run with chicks! Bitty has 5, Bertie has 9 so far, I picked up 30 meat chicks last week, Beulah is sitting on 12 and Eloise is sitting on 6. I have had to put down one of the Golden comet girls and my rooster has...

Broodies everywhere!

I hope you guys are getting to see the pictures on the FB page because I still can't get pictureson BYC! Bitty's chicks are 9 days old and starting to get feathers on their wings. Bertie is still sitting tight. I candled her eggs over the weekend and pulled out 3 obvious clears. I left 11...

Lol.... you guys are crazy! I guess that's why we all get along so well! BYC is being a pain again and not letting me post pictures from my phone. BOO! I have some really cute ones of the chicks' first adventure outside! Bertie is sitting on her eggs and hardly moving. She's almost...

Ok thanks! I gave her mostly blues and greens on Monday. I may not be able to see much but I was going to try to candle on Saturday or Sunday. I'm excited to see how well she hatches and raises chicks.

What's the earliest you can see anything when candling? I don't remember. I'm going to take any obvious clears from my newest broody towards the end of the week. I gave her 14 eggs even though it is her first time. A) because I am over run with eggs and B) she is a big girl and can cover them...
