building paradise for the birds

Hey birdman, Thought I'd stop in and catch up a bit on the posts. Everything looks great! That peacocks tail.....OH WOW! So pretty

. I like the hoop idea. And the tube feeders are great advice. My daughter and I did an official count yesterday on our chickens. We have 99 total. You and I think alike because we are going to a chicken swap this weekend-gotta make it an even 100-or maybe over 100......................ahhhhh, CHICKEN MATH!!!!!!!!!!

Today I am putting bird netting on a make shift insolation pen I made out of skids. Just in case I do get more birds. I want speckled Sussex hens. But have not been able to find them. I had some ordered from my local feed store, because the hatchery I called said they were sold out and any they had would be sent to this feed store. Then the feed store called and told me the eggs were infertile and they have no chicks available.

I have the most beautiful SS rooster (Sue) but every pullet I have bought has either turned out to be a rooster, died, or got eaten by DHs English setter.

If, by the end of this summer, I still have no SS hens, I am changing my game plan and selling or giving away Sue.

If you can be patient with me I have 5 SS hatchery hens I can send you some eggs. I've never done it though.
