It is chilly here. Can not give the chickens water quite yet. Lines are still frozen. we still have a few patches of Thursday nights lite snow. Mostly in the shady spots.

Molly I will call you. I am leaving here around 9 am.

Thank you Jason, it was great seeing you today. I'll keep you posted on the eggs...

Here is a close up.

i took the other chick from Betty. I don't think Betty wanted her. She would tuck the black one under but this one she didn't seem to let hide under her like the black one.

This happened to 2 of mine that went where they weren't supposed to. I slathered on neosporin after I cleaned it with warm water best I could. Recovered fine but were in confinement until completely healed. One was a roo and is in chicken heaven and the other should start laying anytime mine were much worse it was a horrible sight, down to the skull, I don't know how they made it. Chickens can be really scary, pecking each others heads like this

Forgot to mention we call her princess because it left a scar like a ring around her head where feathers don't grow and it looks like a crown

My daughter and I had a great time seeing Jeff's chooks today! We stopped and picked up 3 chicks, and my new mama seems to be taking good care of them. Keeping my fingers crossed. Thank, again, Jeff!

Last minute I left the EE egg in there. Look what Betty has!

OMG....that is so exciting. What a good girl

you are going to have SO much fun watching here with her baby. My Broody always raises the HEALTHYIST chicks.

On further exploration, I found two more! There is a bit of a difference in color so I think they're both laying! One is slightly darker but I'm happy with both. Honestly, from those who know..., what's your thoughts on color quality and or what can I expect? Hard to get a picture to show how dark they .....

Beautiful color...

With all the little BLRW popping out lately I figured I'ld update my little oddball. 3 weeks old and the biggest of the three chicks.

Nice leg color...

Very nice looking Jason...great picture!

Poor little chick. She is eating and grooming herself. So that is encouraging ...

Ahh!

Yes, poor little chick!

You are doing a great job with him or her! Eating and doing chicken things is a good sign!
