2020 Flock Life

[Brahmachicken240]

People working from home or just trying to stay safe and BORED. If you have Netflix try watching some of their top serials. I think the best if 'STRANGER THINGS,' believe Spieberg has something to do with it. I've watched 3 full seasons and am hoping for a 4th.

Also an unsual but good Aussie serial called "GLITCH."

I’ve heard about it, will probably watch it after I get outside tidied.. that’s my first priority...lol

Special Delivery! My hubs picked them up from the post office for me!
Cross your fingers that these ones are a little more hardy! This time I found the grogel in the box and put it on top of the feed and a bit by the waterer to help them go to both places. I can't figure out if they are getting chilled or too hot or something else and that's why everyone is getting pasty butt.

EE, Partridge Rock & Cochins, and buff Orpington.

Hubs calls them walking cotton balls.

I hope they all make it! I ran across an article about electrolytes for sick & weak chicks! You might want to have some on hand! I have the ingredients ready in case I should need it!

Good morning/afternoon! What a fun thread! I just finished going through all of it! @Brahmachicken240, your chickens and your yard are absolutely stunning! I've enjoyed/loved all of the pictures and stories that everyone has shared! I hope you don't mind if I join in!
Right now I have a flock of littles! Looking forward to when they are grown and beautiful like all of the ones I've seen here, but not in a hurry as they are so adorable right now!

Thank you! I'm excited to have chickens again! These are our first standard size, we've always had Banty's in the past! Here is the list of my babies: 1 Buff Orpington Rooster & 4 hens, 2 Americana hens, 2 Midnight Majesty Maran hens, 3 Rhode Island Red hens, 1 Salmon Faverolle hen & 3 Welsummer hens. We also received a free chick, the thinking is that it's another Orpington Rooster!

lovely breeds! I’ve got Buff Orpington and Rhode Island Red hens, they’re lovely hens and they’re great layers.
Ameraucana’s lay blue eggs.. I think ?
you'll have a nice egg basket with all the colours.
