Miner blue

Pumkin hulsey brothers .... seems like the holes they pop their heads thru into the two by two does a little damage to their neck feathers.

This butcher is the one who came after me. Today he didn't even care. Pretty sure it was a isolated incident and it won't happen again.

And the lacy
Enjoy the day everyone and thanks for the info

also have to add that this fake rooster is not being used tor fighting chickens it is being used so I don't get holes in my legs and so that I can keep myself safe and be able to feed/water and collect eggs. as you can see I cannot get to his eggs in the far right corner. so don't get it twisted.






well its been a while since I have been on here and believe you me I have been busy....even tho it doesn't look like it....lol.....so good news is that the pheasants just started laying eggs....they are a lot more behind then last year when in march they were actually laying eggs compared to april....got over a dozen eggs from the pheasants so far....we just put 90 eggs into the incubator....the hatcher has birds in it.....ahhhhh.....I just cant wait for the ground to dry up....so much planned for this year.....hope ww3 doesn't start because of trump.....really only a couple of months and already trying to blow a country up.....lol...go trump.....I am preparing myself for a u.s. invasion....just to be safe......anyways back to birds...got a new go pro 5 black and that thing is awesome....alittle troubles with the voice activation but still works.....got a lot of great pics today from that thing.....a lot of pics were blurring ....not sure how to fix this problem......oh yeah mom and I are going to las vegas for her bday....I shall get more into it when the time comes.....we shall have some wonderful pics.......lasting memories and a wonderful blog.....I would love for people to start posting a little bit more.....would be nice....

add onto the last post.....the ground is horrible in just about every pen.....hope no birds get sick.....the rooster at the end here is the story on him....so I got him pretty young he is a American gamefowl blood line "butcher".....he is over six pounds and very fast......last week he stuck me in the leg for the first time ever.....I tried to grab him like I normally do and when I tried to pick him up he turned on me and started to wack me.....it was a new experience for me that's for sure.....so instead of me being attacked when I feed/water or pick eggs I figured I would buy a fake rooster so it can be preoccupied while I do my chores.....soon enough he will be moved into a new pen that can be fed and watered from the outside.....he was always nice so not so sure why he is still mad at me but he is not changing back even if I try to give him some bread he still looks and acts aggressive.....and no he is not going to freezer camp....I paid to much for him.....I do have birds that have hatched already from them so just waiting till probably next season then he will be put down....maybe....anyways have a wonderful night....its about 2 am and cant sleep...been doing to much research and planning and everything tomorrow will be a huge work day.....my day starts in four hours....peace
