Now imagine that rattling noise if you’re a ditzy horse and you see that and the noise for the first time


He’s a beauty! Wish I could get peafowl…

They were a lot of fun. I just couldn't stand it when we had to sell the young ones, we just couldn't keep all of them or we'd be overrun. In the fall or following spring it didn't matter, their mama would call and call for them. It broke my heart. So we made the decision to find a new home for them.

He's beautiful! You could probably get eggs in the spring. Wonder how many peafowl eggs a chicken could brood?

Hahaha um no

The eggs actually aren’t too terribly big, but I don’t have the room for peafowl. They need a lot of space to roam free.

Where I had the horses, their’s ran free and roosted in the barn’s hay loft year round, even in -30 temps.

The female would get very defensive with her chicks - but I won her over with cat food even taught her to jump up on things and follow me around. Just like a big chicken hahaha

Mount Coopmore

I don't have a much "residue" as @Ponypoor does when I clean up. Yesterday was coop cleaning day.

Here is the result. I call it Mount Coopmore!

Mine also climb the pile to dig through it.

Only Hattie scales the heights to lay down though!

They're gorgeous! And the look in their eyes: gentle, alert

They are very good Roosters so far. They work together and Thyme even tries to look out for the Silkies like they are eternal chicks or something. If they sound distressed at all he runs over to check on them.

Oh, my, they are too young to look so handsome & all grown up already!!!!

They are grown up, deep sigh 17 weeks tomorrow, not one egg yet though but very soon I think.

We want to sleep outside Dad. PPPPLLLEEEAAASSSEEEE

I figured it out! It’s warm out and their heads are toasty in the coop with all those gorgeous feathers up there.

Hahaha that’s awesome

Hattie’s a smart lady, she has the high ground, as long as Sydney doesn’t excavate under her that is!
