Nice! i have 2 barred rocks they are really nice hens they are also camouflaged pretty good too and I like that because we do let them free range some (like today I'm off :)) A lot of hawks around our property.....

My neighbor let's her chickens free range during the day, evey day. There is a hawk around that often watches from afar. She said she hasn't had a problem with it.
Last year I lost a couple of cockerels to a hawk. Not fun.

We work during the day so we keep them penned up but when we come in after work we let them out....I haven't lost any yet and I've had them over a year now but I know it is always going to be something we have to consider.....

The neighbor has caught a couple opossums. And a friend caught an opossum that got into her coop. And she has a fox coming around, too. Always something, lol. :(

My mom's home the majority of the day, but we have a fox that comes almost every night, but other than that we have a lot of Turkey Vultures. Usually our girls just free range during the day, they're good about sticking together and they usually hang out under bushes and large plants.
 
Anyone know of a good hatching eggs supplier in South Florida/Palm Beach County area? I'm trying to add to my flock but am a little unsure about getting them from a hatchery online since I'm a little unsure as to how to make sure they are reputable. PM or reply thanks
