Arizona Chickens

I could see you acting silly, because you were so scared!

They don't sting you if you j u st let the say HI!!. If it be starts to crawl around on you, Their smelling you and then they fly off. It's once you start hitting them and trying to kill them they come


We've had issues with bees. I went down to my carpentry shop one day and the whole thing, about 1200 sq. feet, was filled with swarming bees. I just about had a heart attack! Especially when one of my dogs trotted in there despite the swarm. I was sure they would sting her to death, but luckily she came running out when I called. A couple weeks later I was out back in my garden in the morning and decided to come in the house for a drink. Within minutes I heard that horrifying buzzing sound and found my back yard filled with swarming bees. When I walked to the screen door the bees landed on that door and covered nearly the whole thing until I couldn't even see out back. I just sat on the edge of my bed, aghast that I had just been out there less than two minutes before that. 

Bees have long been my childhood phobia. I've worked hard to break down that fear and do fine when one or just a few are buzzing around, but they seem to like to swarm around me.

Oh...we've had about half a dozen other incidents with bee swarms at our house and business, all in the past couple years. *Shudder* I admire bees, and bee keepers. I know I can never be one of them.


Oh wow, yes could see why.. :ep
The only cool story we have had was; our family was out on a mountain bike ride in east Mesa by the Salt river.. A new swarm flew above about 39 feet away.. It was relocating.. We all got to see it on a water break.. Fascinating

Hi,
Does anybody here have any chicks for sale? If so, what breeds?
in a month or two i will have some silkies, silkie crosses, easter eggers and some bantam silver penciled rocks hatching but i will probably grow out the rocks to see the gender and quality
 
I add 5 new hens to my flock on Saturday! Can't post pictures right now (I'm on mobile) but there is one EE two White Leghorn crosses, and Polish cross (that has two extra toes and a spur on one foot ???) And a black Australorp. Also added the two barred Maran hens to the big coop. Everyone is doing great and I got 7 eggs yesterday :D

I will have some in about two weeks, barnyard mixes mostly. I have buff orpington hens, a speckled sussex hen, two Amercuanas, and one mutt chicken. The roo is a buff orpington, so the only pure breeds I will have is buff orpington.

I also have a gold laced wyandotte roo for sale, He is 14 weeks.
