Some of next years Araucana breeding stock. I currently am running five pens of them. Do you think that is too many? Well, they are my favourite, followed by the Light Sussex. xxxx M

So is that a partridge araucana Ash ? He is lovely.

Hi all

We have had several (6) days of 40+ degrees, and finally the rain has broken through. The trouble is, as it is still so hot and humid and still, that my entire dirt run has grown a fine layer of fluffy mould over it!

It is too big to consider putting a layer of sand or anything else over it, and even if I did it would just grow mould over that layer anyway!

What should I do? I can rake it all to break it up, but these conditions (hot, humid and wet) are predicted to hang around until next week.

Will my birds be ok? Their coop is dry, but it's still too hot for them to be in there during the day.

I can put hay around the feeders but again, I guess that would grow mould too. Their feed is dry though, so that's one good thing..

Thoughts?

Ok hard decision, we are only allowed 6 birds in town here. I have 7 , 4 large 3 bantams 3 of my last lot from are gone, 2 were roosters one was killed by the dog. They still have some left from that same hatch and have said I'm welcome to come choose some to replace the others. I would probably get 2 so they aren't alone in quarantine. But quarantine is already full and that would mean according to chicken math I have 9 of my allowed 6 so no more room for the ducks I want.
What do I do!!!

Pretend you thought it said 16 You wont have any problems as long as a neighbour doesn't complain etc.

Bantams are only half sized so I would say you only have 5 and half chickens

Okay NOW it's hatching day! XD



<3 Mumma hen was none too happy that I stole him away for his baby pictures. I popped him right back under her. He was greeted with a purr and a snuggle. I was greeted with shrieking and a peck. XD
