Well, it seems like I'm not getting my silkies after all. The person gave me 3 silkies. My parents picked them up and were keeping them until I had a chance to get the silkies from them. Unfortunately they let the silkies free range in the yard with their dog. Need I say more.

sorry to hear that orps

Been a while since I've gotten on here to look around since the design changes a couple years ago. Last years predators just about wiped out most of my flock. Only 2 Turkeys left (both Toms), ducks gone, all but 1 of my BBS Orps (Blue hen left) only 4 grown hens left out of about 40. My Silkies and Phoenix are kept locked up in their own hutches so I still have them but the hawks and coyotes just about got everything else. 1 BBS Orp 2BO & 1EE is all that's left.

Got about 50 pullets about 2-3 months old now from our feed store & at TSC growing up to replace what i've lost. In the last couple weeks I have hatched out some silkies and about 6 silkie/phoenix mixes under some broody silkie hens, can't wait to see what they look like after feathering out.

Picked up the last 3 Khaki Campbell ducks TSC had at Easter & got 6 Turkey eggs from a friend under those little Silkies and they are supposed to hatch in about 3 or 4 days now.

I'm in the NW corner of the state out in the Central Heights area of Florence just off the Savannah Hiway.

Would love to get a few BBS eggs to hatch or some babies or even a grown BBS Roo or cockerel.

That's really nice!

Do you have some hardware cloth covering that air gap in the roof? Critters can get in there. (best to save yourself the heartache!)

Inside. We are about to put some roost in.


We have 9 chickens but I think I am going to be rejoining some buff Orp. Roos and some an EE Roo. So half my flock will be gone

Yes he put it on the inside so you can't really see it in this pic

We are also going to extend the roof out over nesting boxes
