Doing spectacularly, sis!   I'm busy today, cleaning 3 brooders and the coop. 

Hooray, Cherry! I'm so glad you've got so many pullets! Just when I thought I had a bantam Phoenix pair, the other one decided yesterday, "Surprise! I'm a boy!" SO it looks like I've got two Phoenix cockerels now. 

We've got 58 birds right now.....crazy, right?!?!?!

Oh poor thing, one thing I don't like about chickens is how much they poop! haha thanks, so am I! I think I'm finally starting figure out because Roos have big legs and pullets have thinner legs. Oh no I'm sorry about that. So all in all how many cocks and how many pullets do you think you guys have?

Haha, and we think that we have a lot! I'd LOVE to have as many as you!

@Alexandra33 thats too bad that they are cockerels. In our last chick batch one chick named Candice had a curly tail and the other things that roos have but then SURPRISE! She was a hen

How is everyone today? It's supposed to be 20 degrees this Monday! 20 degrees Celsius

I'm good
It's been below 40 degrees Fahrenheit here the past week or so. Wish it would warm up

I'm just going to go check whats 40F to C

I'm in Canada so we do Celsius

Ok, 41F is 5C so you must be in that area

That makes it seem colder here
Looks sunny and warm out today, but it is probably chilly... Looks are deceiving lately. Let me check...
Still only 46. Maybe it'll warm up later :/

Ha ha! I must admit, poop doesn't even phase me anymore.

I'm surrounded by it everywhere I go, so I've just started to dismiss it like it's nothing.

We have 15 pullets and 9 cockerels in the brooder right now.

We bought a tiny separate coop for my 6 bantam cockerels so that my mom's 3 Isbar boys can stay in the main coop with no problems.
