Chicken Math. Or "The story of how I didn't want chickens and got hooked"

The photos of your birds are just beautiful! Thanks for sharing them with us. Have you entered a couple in the Calendar competition?

I have a couple in there. Competition is pretty stiff, we'll see if they make the cut.

Olive, our adopted Maran mix(?), and both of the GLW's (which we've named "Olay, Olay!" as a pair. Olive's showing some good progress on recovering her feathers but still has a way to go. She is still laying 5x a week on average, so she seems to be pretty comfy.

I read this to my fiance and said "Can we get more chickens? Pleaseeeeeee?" He said "Can I eat them if we do?" I rolled my eyes and said "No, no, you may not. Look up chickens for sale."

How's Buttercup doing?

How's Buttercup doing?

Absolutely fine. She's got a scabby little sore on her comb which I think is where the scorpion must have gotten her but that's almost healed up as well. She's laying, moving with no issue, and back to her duties as a flock enforcer.

How's Buttercup doing?

I actually thought that was directed at me and was typing that no chicken named Buttercup exists in my flock...but then azurbancluckers message popped up... lol
