Yay!!! Breeding area sounds interesting.Over a week and a half since I noticed the fowl pox infection, no new infection as of todayI cleaned and put away the grow out coop today, so no more hatching this year. We're fixing on doing the roof extension weekend after next. And I have plans for a breeding area. I'll upload pics soon.
I'm pretty excited about it! My husband really isn't, lol, but it won't take much work. We'll basically just be extending the grow out area, so it'll be 14x6. That way I can separate whoever I'm wanting to hatch from.
Those pure ameraucanas will probably not be obvious until much later. So freaking cute!
Yeah, all the am's I've had are usually around 6-8 weeks before I have a good idea, so we've got a ways to go, lol. But all these littles are cute as can be (but aren't all chicks
). I can't wait for them to feather in some more, watching how they change is one of the most exciting parts!
Oh no! That pile of feathers is from one of your neighbor's birds, right? Not yours, hopefully!And so it begins with the neighbors behind us
Do u have a camera that has a view in between ypur burn pile and pecan tree?

She doesn't lock her birds up, she doesn't feed them until mid winter, but when the predator feast begins, she's concerned, smdh. This is why we are fencing the rest of our property this winter, her birds bring the predators to close for comfort (because they are looking for food)
Yes ma'am, she has extremely poor husbandry practices. This happens every year. It disgusts me.
I will not sell chicks to her because I know what their life will be like
