Wendy is so funny. She follows me around because she wants mealworm treats from me and when I show her that my hands are empty she gives me this look like she’s saying “Are you serious? No mealworms!”

Our friend moved back here from California..Just talked to him. He even is excited to see my Birds..

He grew up here but I'm sure he isn't liking it.

@MillersFarm do you have eggs hatching soon?

I've got 8 call eggs under a broody, Putting 8 more under another broody, and incubating some Turkey eggs~

@MillersFarm what ever happened to your egg bound bantam hen? Is she alright? Did she pass the egg?

I think I noticed it fast enough to save it, She did pass the egg but another one of my hens ended up getting egg-bound and I didn't notice until it was too late unfortunately

My shed is 40x40, chickens have access to about 30x35. I have about 70-80 chickens in the shed. They are completely free range, and can come and go as they please. My bantam coop is 8x10 with around 15 bantam, up to 20 at times, but never a constant 20.

We live on 40 acres. Lots of chicken forage areas. My shed.

Well, that's Mr. Bird ...He is 12 years old and not my friend...12 years of him hating me....Totally..He loves one radio station and is a total 80s victim. All metal too..My Husband and him are buddies though..

Aw, I used to have a bird that hated me too Her name was Oreo, Not sure what she was though? All I remember about her is she'd always try and bite me and that she was all black..

I took them with a phone, so they aren't really good quality...View attachment 1300565View attachment 1300566View attachment 1300567View attachment 1300568View attachment 1300569View attachment 1300570View attachment 1300571

Wow is that grass I see?

@MillersFarm what’s happening by you?

Things are good, I've started selling eggs and I spent the day catching up with one of my sisters who's been away for a while now. Thanks for asking

I’m worried about Albastru. She doesn’t come running out of the henhouse straight for the feed in the morning like Wendy does, she just lingers in the henhouse. I put the food bowl in the henhouse if Albastru is inside while Wendy is foraging. I don’t think she like sit if I try to watch her eat. Maybe I’m being over protective? I know that the coop is small, but it’s all I have for right now. I was going to buy lumber tomorrow and start to build the run panels but my garage door is broken and my dad said not to open it so I can’t take out he table saw to cut the lumber down to size. And now we might need a new garage door and money is tight as it is Oh well, better to have to spend money on a garage door than on the doctor.

It could be that she's just adjusting? How long have you had your chickens for?

Are you planning your new Coop?
