For asking a duplicate question

Tippy and Rico - full siblings (Sophia is mum) and Martina

They are all lovely (Just LOVE the facinators!), but that Martina! I just love her spangle tips - so stunning against her golden base color - and her full headress - I think she may give Phyllis a run for her money on the cat-walk! (Sorry @BY Bob , but all that and the smokey grey petticoat - she is a flashy looker, as opposed to Phyllis' sleek elegance - but they would BOTH be competing for top honors on the runway!)

I am going to give her a hair cut today. She is starting to have issue seeing through that mop

I can’t wait to see what her feathers come out as when she does her first molt.

Tippy is starting to get white feathers around her beak and eyes and that white wing feathers, I wonder if she will get more white feathers.

The "fluffy soccer ball" to use one of my boy's descriptions of her

Nellie daughter, a buff orp, a Bielefelder, a Silver twin and a female version of Whiskey and Kren.

Now for mine

Sometimes your chair is too heavy to tip over. A removable cushion can help.

Good suggestion! I have been putting a cover on my desk chair just in case they pooped on that one (ewwwwww! Haha). Because you know I keep forgetting to shut the door, and yesterday I twice locked chickies on there, once three chicks and then Blanche! She has big poopies

This seem like an excellent outcome considering. They will have their new challenge and your tribe will have its stability.

I feel that the reason she kept him so long was just for that particular reason. The Fates made sure Twig and Maddea had a good home.

Rebecca just had to deal with some drama before it all came together

Wow I love that Turkey, what a lovely creature

That is a wonderful photo of Hector you need to post it onPOW.

Why do they have to be so vicious sometimes?

Tis the way of the chicken

 

[Ponypoor]

In case I missed, is Martina a pullet? She is looking good.

Everyone is saying she is, so I am going with what everyone says. She is a Silkies x Polish cross, both of which are hard to tell gender. I wish now I had done the gender dna test on her and Tippy when I did the silkie chicks.

But I trust everyone’s experience with gender.

Am I a girl??

They stayed up there. I put them all under "mama". Tomorrow, will readjust so there's more height under it. The likely would have been fine....until around 230 or 3 am....

I think I am going to put my school chicks in with the grups. They want to go in there anyways, and I have caught the more then once roosting there during the day.

Done. The turkey has his own problems....

Egg size (the same as 2 week old chickens)

Ladies hiding the eggs outside

And going walkabout (Angus helped put them back in)

Baby chicks (the meat birds and crew) in the just off camera pen to the right. Must be tough with all that space. The ladies I call Chatty Cathy and Moaning Myrtle. The niece has different names for them, but I forgot already.
