Granny's gone and done it again

[Nomadicus]

We also have a new pen of Legbar pullets that are running with 3 cockerels from Greenfire Farms. Other than those and a few pets that's it. Going to have to hire a crew to rebuild 2 large coops that got destroyed by a blizzard. The design is ready and will withstand snow should it ever come again.

For his own well being our farm mascot "Legs" moved on to a new home not far away to become a companion for a young man of about 10 that loves him to death. We have a pet coop with 3 cream legbar little roosters that we call our porch pirates. I turn them out daily to free range where ever they go which is never far away. I greet them most morning and pick each one up and talk with them call them by name that they act like they know before ambling back inside to my chair.

Hopefully I'll get a few good pictures of the White Hen, the Black Hen, and their 5 red babies this week yet out on the grass.

Well I have a confirmed pick up of Kirma null for this Tuesday morning.. Angie traded days at Walmart so I can leave Monday morning and actually spend some time with Brett, France. I should still be "functional" instead of a driving zombie. This will make 3 months in a row that I have seen them.

I"m going to go relax in the sucker chair and check my eye lids for holes (hopefully) You all be safe and have fun, JUST do NOT get arrested.

Need to update this. Only got 5 Cinnamon Queen pullet chicks at TSC. Didn't try to put one under the silkie hen. Put 2 under one of the full size hens and 3 under the other after dark. The next morning all was well. It still didn't goes as planned. Better. The chicks were already bonded. They seemed to prefer the Dark Cornish hen but then they all decided to take on whichever hen had the food. The two hens are sharing the chicks now. The Dark Cornish hens covers them while the Larger White Giant hen rushes out to defend their fortress. I've never seen such or ever thought this was possible. I've got a rooster that fed chicks and inspected their nest after hatching and still refuses to eat until the hens are fed.

Well, Larry, it takes a village!

They are Sammy, Buddy and Hector. Sammy had hip dysplasia at 1 week old so we separated him for treatment. He cried cheeped so much we put a buddy in with him. They have bonded to each other. Hector was a little smaller than the rest so he got put in with them. No idea where Pa got the name Hector.
