PUFFYCHEEKS: My mama hen is a blue laced red wyandotte. I agree, I love her colors. I have another, but she is much darker. Apparently, there's a lot of variation in the breed. I'll try to post a pic of her tomorrow. 
Arizona Chickens
- Thread starter paynemom
- Start date
The little girls have moved to the big girl coop. ( Mama Hen Gretchen is now brooding in their "nursery" pen) They like to sit on the outdoor roost in the early morning and have a little nap.
Great opportunity to snap some pics.
Started a gutter garden with Chicken Salad Mix. Have to get some wheat grass seed. Also will add
some plants (probably silk) to this nest box. A peer from work asked if I wanted it. Of course I grabbed it up.

Sadness...

Reminiscent of hydroponics...
Does anyone have a spare bedroom the chicks and I could use for a few months?
I picked up the brooder/tractor today.
Luckily I have the best wife on the planet and she just laughed it off and said, "Well, I guess we are back up to $49.99 per egg again."
I will not have a chance to work on it until Sunday & I have to get her fence up first. I'll post pictures as I go.

- They kinked a brace - quite visible
- Almost every one of the 98 individual hinge barrels is now full of zinc - I'm going to have to torch each one and melt it out.
- They lost a part - the remote latch release for the brooder door.
- And my 200lb / $150 galvanizing process turned into 607 lbs and $355!!!

I processed a leghorn pullet awhile back, she was eating eggs and had to go. I boiled up the carcass and used the meat in chili. Very tasty.
With all the damage, they should have cut you a HUGE break. Maybe not free, but something like at cost.
