We got some snow! 8000 feet, but water runs downhill and low 80s are in the forecast.

Hi folks. So I think Minnie has Marek’s. I’m kinda bummed. Today she is wobbly like she has balance issues. I posted in the emergency forum, if you’re interested.

I am so sorry to hear this.

Hello my name is Tina and Agatha thinks I'm a soft touch. But I pecked my new mother this morning so Agatha had better watch her step because I'll grow bigger one day

Their colouring is spectacular. They're going to be stunners when they're in their adult shiney feathers.

I am pretty sure at this point that they will also look different from each other. I was a little worried about telling them apart but I don't think that will be so.

Honestly, you can't tell a chicken's personality on the first day or two. They need a chance to learn about their environment and that includes other hens and fights. Don't make any decisions that will be hard on her for a month or two.

This is excellent advice and I agree with it wholeheartedly. Give them time.

I never thought I’d love a poo post, but there you go.
