Why thank you, Acre

Actually, I bribed them with donuts and did them a few weeks ago to get a count. I've got 12 cockerels, 17 pullets. They were buggers to catch, but after I banded them and put them down, they went right back to eating their treats.

I plan to butcher the extra roos on Saturday, so the bands will come off then.

Yeah, they might melt in the oven.

And I wonder if I should have posted this under 'Photos and Stories of my chickens'? I didn't know there were new forum names until after I posted this. I've been gone all day. LOL

That's ok, we won't tell the mods. We like lookin at 'em

Thats a beautiful place you have I wish I had some more land of my own. I still live with my parents and in the suburbs so I am very limited to what I can have.

What gorgeous birds you have, Shellie!!! Gotta love those Orps. Thanks so much for posting the pics. Looks like you live in a beautiful area. I am a huge nature fan, too - love to take pics of the natural beauty around me.
