Idk if we can do that they have lots of straw and were setting up a heat lamp.

I have actually chosen chicks in the feed store that were bold enough to peck. I think it means they are healthy.

I get that. That makes sense. Like you don't want the puppy who sits in the corner and lets the other puppies chew on his ear as your watch dog, for instance. lol

Pics coming soon.

Looking forward to it!!!

Poor Sally and mother of george, We got her about a month ago and I thought she fit into the coop beautifully. She was brave enough to roost right away, she would peck other chickens if she got mad. She was more the bully, well some one must have had enough. I saw blood in the coop, knew nobody was attacked but didn't have time to find who was bleeding right off. I had birds to feed and water. I thought the roosters had a go with each other, so I checked out the other roo- he was not bloody, then I saw Sally....

this is george...



she was bleeding on her comb- I brought her in the house, put FLOUR on her comb to stop the blood. and warmed her up it was 10 degrees out. I gave her a bite of pumpkin pie- she didn't want much put her in a box to take a nap. I am going back to the coop to see if anyone else is just as bad.

Aww well at least it's no two bad. Before they died our two Banty Roos nearly killed themselves for mating privviiileges. Brooch is sitting still.

The other hens had pea combs so they were fine.

She wanted out so I put her in a little green house with food and water- and today is sunny.

If I was a chicken, I'd want you to be my mommy. =)
