Flock/Life Journey's 2019

[HuffleClaw]

Flock Update, anyone?
My flock has been doing fairly well lately. I’ve gotten up to 15 eggs in a day this week! The chickens & ducks are my precious little angels The guineas on the other hand, are hellions. The guineas all ganged up on my favorite male guinea the other day and almost ripped his stomach open. He is now healing and living peacefully with the chickens. I put the smallest guinea hen in there with him so he would be too lonely. ~
Here he is with one of my red sex link hens:

My entire flock free ranges every day, and they love every minute of it. They’ve been getting treats lately, the spoiled birds.
I have come to like the guineas, even though they cause mischief My Black ameraucana was rehomed on Friday... her "egg sack" was dropping and she’s an old gal... pictures before she left and of her bottom areas ~ She was a sweetheart, sorry she had to be let go.

And my bunny is doing absolutely wonderful, I love my sweet Tippin!

More pictures of the flock: Someone remind me to take pictures of the whole flock soon, please?
I love my flock!

Thanks for reading!

What a cutie! He is rocking that hat! And looks so proud of it.

I'm still surprised he actually let me put it on him. There were other hats he modeled for me as well, but I can't find the pictures.(that was my obsessive, cat-hat-making phase)

In other news, I had ten chicks hatch over the weekend: six d'uccles and four sultans. With some more eggs in the incubator for Thursday and beyond...

I love when our place has fog in the air looks amazing

Now that's something we don't get a lot of but I love it when we do.

Awww!!! Thank you! @KLIL green is my fav color! And I'll definitely post as we build!

I'm loving watching them grow! I'm excited to see how the coloring turns out! I'm bummed that I didn't get some australorps like i thought but once these guys grow up and in new pen i might get some of those and easter eggers and barnevelders! I'm hoping for a good mix in the yard!

My flock update!
My flocks doing okay.
Brahmas are doing great, starting to collect their eggs to put under my broody lemon Pyle hen

The guineas are going crazy, wandering far out around the feilds getting onto the road. They’re spending a lot of time around the rushes at the bottom of one of the feilds, maybe they’re looking for nesting sites as it is the time of year for them to do that.

Ducks are doing great, one of the rouens is starting up a nest now, maybe she’ll go broody too.
Mother duck has had a wild first hatch, hopefully the two remaining ducklings get on well and stay healthy.

I love Autumn! I don't know what happens scientifically but our sunrises go from blah! to this!

Don’t even tell me that’s what you get to look at every day!?!

Not about chickens, but take a look at this picture of Sebastian I found from 2016:

He is gorgeous!

Hi ChickieMama! You have some beautiful birds

 

[Ribh]

Don’t even tell me that’s what you get to look at every day!?!

Well... it doesn't always look like that, but that's the view.

So happy for you AussieChick! All three in one day!! ... still waiting for all eight in one day... but it’ll be awhile cuz my little Silkie.. Nilky.. is broody...
All other gals are great and have been free ranging pretty much daily... and now they expect it! But Nilky is not happy at all about free ranging as she is not able to get back to the coop due to the puppy fence ... so she paces the fence line or follows me around.. clucking ... OR chases the big gals and pulls their feathers...she’s so frustrated... and angry
