Here's 2 of my Christmas presents the wife got for me LF Mottled Cochins 5 hens an a cock bird what a great Christmas gift I hope you all get great gifts like these Merry Christmas everyone. they look small till you consider I am 6.5 LOL
Oh my...I am in SOOOOOO much trouble! :oops: Don't make the mistake I did by checking out this link: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/...hatchery-surprise-anybody-got-this-before/370 I will be ordering several of these, after the holiday season is over. Here is my thought..lets say you get 50 chicks for $50.00 shipped...you turn around and sell all the chicks for $3.00-$4.00 each and double your money! ;) Plus, I might get to keep a few babies from each batch. What do you think, do I have a good idea? Oh, and yes I'm being an enabler by posting that link here...I did that on purpose! :yesss: ~ Aspen
i got that once and got duccles, silkies,yokohamas, Cochin!
 
Roscoe sealed his fate last night... He attacked my daughter. All she had to defend herself was the feed bucket and he went after her so hard, he put two holes in the feed bucket. That's it, he's gone... I'm not putting up with this kind of behavior!

My BIL has intervened to save his life, though... He has a friend who had a mean rooster who actually acted like a gaurd dog. Wouldn't let any one near his house. Then his daugther ran him over, so he's looking for another rooster, and actually wants one with a bad attitude! Roscoe's getting put in a crate tomorrow morning and taking a ride into town so my BIL can deliver him to his new home!

Sure hope I get a nice roo from the NYD hatch...
Wow... Ya, that's no good. I think it's a mixed blessing that we aren't allowed roos where I live. :/

We have two leghorn boys who would never think to hurt us (the boys, myself or the boyfriend), but they challenged a bear and attacked it head on to save the hennies and to protect me. They will also crowd around when the inmates (or anyone else) comes to the house. They haven't attacked a person yet, but I have no doubt in my mind that they would attack a person if someone came here and tried to hurt one of us. A good guard rooster does not have to be aggressive towards his human family members!
