That's a terrible situation. It's a really bad break. She needs that fixed now.

I know I wish I could just go hug her and let her bawl on my shoulder (I am sure she want's to do that!), and of course talk chickens!

I need more chickens laying more eggs

Mugs day

View attachment 3383550Nellie

View attachment 3383551Cuckoo, still tatty But new feathers are coming

View attachment 3383554Primula, with a tailbomber....maybe Nellie's? View attachment 3383553Indigo, working on an egg. Surprised she stayed put. She and Lark are still really skittish.

View attachment 3383552And a surprising duo: Thing and Belladonna....just before Thing made her back off...

@TX Chick Noob may your doctor get you in with the orthopedist today. Meanwhile, may your pain levels be manageable and your meds tolerable. Stay hydrated.

Just love Primula's colour - I am always astonished with the variety of feather colours

If I could be sure of getting pullets I would definitely try to get a couple (few...). But the hatchery only sells straight run for Mottled Houdans.

Most places here in town allow only 3 hens and no roosters.

I live in the country so we can have as many as we want

One day you will get your Lavender Orpington - I am sure of it

Tony's twiddling her... um... feathers in hopes of this happening.

Some great mugshots for Monday - I particularly like the first Aurora one.

Houdans are easy to sex early. Like polish, the roos pop pointy crest feathers while the hens pop rounder crest feathers. And they pop well around the 2 week mark.

Dark brahmas (Primula and Belladonna), like brown leghorns have different colored breast feathers. Roos are black breasted. Hens...well, you can see mine.

She was after those blueberries. I need a lot more of them to feed this group these days. Sydney gets twice as many as anyone else.

Maybe it's time to put in a blueberry bush....
