Arizona Chickens

Just shooed away a huuuuge hawk that was sitting on the chicken coop, staring at the chick pen. Good girls were hiding in their huddle box and under the shade cover section. Yeesh. He was huge.

Huge probably means she. We've had them in the yard too. The other morning I was out before the sun watering and an owl took off from on top of the quail pen. Scared the %÷*! outta me

It was looking for a snack, so make sure the chicks can't be grabbed.

I know where you live BWAHAHAHAHAHA

And it's getting to be better coffee drinking weather. I will probably have a surprise here on the 20th, but I'm not going to say what it is yet! No, I'm not going to be hatching more of my flocks chick's this year.

Hawk later dive bombed the chick pen. The chicks are safe where they're at but uhg hawks. I think it's a Cooper's Hawk.

Knowing a hawk has eyes on my snack sized chicks made the evening transfer from pen to brooder a little nerve wracking, but everyone is tucked in safe for the night. I can't wait to have the coop done.

It's 0600 and I'm driving thru downtown Phoenix as the sun rises. Got my windows down and the sun roof open. It's gorgeous!
