How is everyone doing sorry I haven't checked in lately

Summers keep us all busy! Amy and Marshmallow have started laying! Cute little blue pullet eggs

They look bluer when compared to others!

It's been a hard summer for me. I can't seem to sell chicks, Lost 3 banty orpingtons in the heat, one banty orp chick, and one chocolate laced hen. I sold my flock of chocolate laced since they didn't sell, and were always broody. I can't even sell eggs! Sucks to be me.

I cant even sell silkie pullets!

That makes me feel better! I was going to get some silkie eggs since they are so popular and I'm glad I didn't!

I sold 2 chicks yesterday but more importantly I established a new customer! I have a beautiful frizzled EE cockerel and they want chicks from him next year. I'll post a picture later, I'm too tired to chase him down and get a picture. He is an EE/Polish frizzle cross. I've usually done well with EEs and Polish so hopefully next year will be better!

Not much new here, just popping by! It was a rough summer for my lavender Ameraucana Fluff…he got dry pox and near the end of the virus he started molting hard He was away from the flock for so long and got so weak that he’s afraid of his own shadow now and the bantam Cochin rooster has kicked him out of the coop. I had to move him to my closed up teenager pullet coop to let him get thru his molt and get his strength back, but I feel bad for him. I’m probably going to have to isolate the bantam boy for awhile and restart the pecking order. Poor Fluff He’s just the best boy. He loves to just sleep in your arms, and he literally has zero aggressiveness towards anyone. That’s why I knew I could shut him in with the teenagers and they’d be fine. He leaves them completely alone and they all snuggle up together at night. I really want him to regain his confidence and make babies with Marshmallow and eventually Raven I’ve read lavender with blues is a bad combo, so no Amy babies for now…but Raven might already be split to lavender so they could make lavs or black Ams. Fingers crossed

He's so sweet, poor guy! Can't wait to see some offspring from him!
