Yes Kathy....there are quite a few of us with scales due you! I weigh about once a month, or more if something looks off.
I knew you'd weight miss foamy poop. Hope all is well.

Gotta catch her. As is well, hope it is for you, too.

Kathy...did you catch your hen??

So....its a bit before 6:00 and already over 80. Want to get the girls out for an early stroll before it gets to hot for me. But they are still asleep! What bums! Wonder what they did last night...BOSS party with the chickens? These late nights need to stop! But to be fair it is just barely light. So another cup of coffee for me, then I'm rousting them off their roosts.

Whew! Got my party birds off their roosts & out front for wet winged moths. Yum! Also watered the stuff in the front. Can be a challenge when your birds love to play in the hose. Very nice older couple strolled by & spent a lot of time with the girls. Even Annie had fun untying her bright yellow tennis shoe laces. They live on a different street so had not met the birds yet. They enjoyed learning about the girls & the girls rather liked them. Watered the back also. Daisy follows the hose & eats wet wing things. Smarty. Annie retired to her bench roost to peen out the dust from her bath. Nice morning....but going to be brutal today. Glad every thing got a nice drink & the girls are ready for naps.

No, not yet. Definetly need to because I saw her do an abnormal non-cecal poop.

Hate to hear her poop isn't right....hope she'll be ok. Can you post a pic of her poop? Would like to see what your considering abnormal. Always educational...poop pics, that is. Love the poop chart!

My featherred friends are serious slackers! No eggs from a anyone in a week! Maybe its the heat. I've been seeing some Australorp feathers about. Molting already?

Most of mine are molting or hiding from the heat too... only ones still laying consistently are my black birds, lol...

ETA: and half of them are broody...

A few of mine have already completed their molt for the year. They tend to molt early for me.

 

[memphis]

Mine have always molted late. But I seem to have an Australorp with no tail. I've also noticed some large wing feathers falling out of Annie. Hmmm. Unusual for my birds here.

Not too bad out this morning. Was in the mid 70's which made our morning stroll quite pleasant. Have grass seeds poking up next door. Interesting to watch the girls harvesting the grass seeds. They clamp down on the stem with their beaks and pull straight up. The seeds pop off into their mouths & the long stems remain. Well, I found it clever. But then again, doesn't take much .....
