Omgosh! That is so freaking cute that I just can’t stand it!

That's why they're named after Crucified Barbara, the terrible (like, super terrible) Swedish metal band from the 90's.

They really are. I'm pretty stoked on them. Lots of fun additions this year!

I kind of have a Mohawk chick. My Lakeshore Egger Buttercup. Hers is a slicked back tuft of feathers on her head. Makes me think of an 80’s hair band do. She’s just missing the headband Although her hair-do isn’t as cool as Conan’s crew. All of the various hair-dos of chickens are just so cute!

I love her. She just needs some bling and a coke habit! She'd fit right in to the 80's!

What else should I add for the inside of the coop if anything? I'm still trying to figure out how I want the waterers to go. I'm thinking a big bucket with horizontal nipples or maybe the cups. They'll just sit on stacked bricks in the middle.

It's going to be a 10 x 12 coop.

In my 12 X 11 hen house I have a floor to ceiling pen that is 4 X 5.5 complete with nest box on floor for a broody hen with chicks. In one corner of the coop I have a three tier cage stack 18 X 18 X 30 with pull out poop drawers. I use them for incubating hens or for brooder chicks or for isolating a bird.

That's why they're named after Crucified Barbara, the terrible (like, super terrible) Swedish metal band from the 90's.

I thought your auto correct was playing tricks
I bet this one is a cockerel. Love the muffs and Mohawks.

The one in the foreground? I sure hope I have a cockerel in there somewhere... people want eggs, dang it!

Hugged my dogs and watched ducks playing in their swimming pools.
Then weed whacked the front and back yards.
Pulled tall grass out of the rock garden in front yard.
Got hubby in for his blood tests at 3:30 pm.
Really sweet lady in Medical Records made my day when she said she would call me Monday morning when she faxes hubby's test results to the doctor!
Hubs took me to Golden Corral for dinner.
