Will you be sending your non productive chickens to the oven or to chicken retirement? http://www.theblaze.com/stories/what-is-the-urban-chicken-retirement-phenomenon/

So thats where they go

That's a cute idea but than I just keep my old timers until they croak! I if I could would take all unwanted roosters and keep them happy. They are so pretty! But than I would also have a baseball bat ready for the ornery ones!

You crack me up girl. Hey I might be interested in that black silkie if turns out to be hen.

I am pretty sure she is a hen. That is the one I sent a picture to you of!

Had a really windy, cold and some rain squal go through Wittmann! When I went out to see if all was well I found one chick out cold. Not sure if it was thrown or didn't get under Cotton's wing fast enough. It was barely alive but I stuffed it in between my boobs and finished getting one area that blew over in the goat pen taken care of. By the time I was in the house some life was stirring. Put the chick on a heating pad and was able to return it to Cotton about 2 hours after I found it! Big Boobs can be good for something!

Just came by here and ripped the roof of my dogs shelter

Hey we had a new visitor. Remember last week when I posted a Gopher Snake that we saw in the yard. Well now we have this lovely Bull Snake! Last year just before winter I caught a stunning King Snake! I feel blessed to have them. So far the chicks are safe from them. No worries there.

WHAT A BEAUTY!!!

This evening we went out to feed and call in the free chickens and found that the hens were chasing their rooster Hawkeye, all around beating the hell out of him! Poor guy we caught him and put him with BlueBell. We noticed he acts blind or dizzy. Staggering some but walking into things. We see nothing in his eyes wrong. No marks or blood other than the bleeding around his head the hens made. I wonder if he got picked up and thrown during that windstorm! Well Bluebell will take care of him. Hope he can go back being the flocks rooster! Hawkeye is a pretty boy and nice for a rooster. He is ameraucanas. Tell you what! I have grown not to like those Aloha hens we have. We have two and they are mean! Very pushy and very aggressive toward other hens.

That was quite the wind storm we had . Its possible he got picked up and thrown and hit his little head. It destroyed our dogs shelter so you know what Ill be doing tomarrow . Also all our lawn furniture was thrown around the yard along with our heavy swing. As for the pushy mean birds ... when was the last time you had chicken and dumplings . My neighbor raises all different kinds of chickens im sure we can find you some nice girls for him to flock with..... Just sayin....
