That's them goofy birds

I really enjoy having them on the farm. I can hardly wait till the 21st for my batch to hatch.

They fly in and out of the coop at free will and roam all over the farm eating bugs, chasing the pigeons off from the birdbath or feeder.

I have one white hen, two pearl hens and two lavender roosters. The hens are finally laying like crazy.

Rooster0209... definitely keep us posted on your hatch too! How many eggs have you incubated? With 3 hens, they must be coming out your ears!

It's funny how we're way up North with birds that like extreme heat!

Are you getting any of this funky weather too?

 

[MTtroutwithwings]

All is done! We have 7 beautiful new keets! 12 hours of labor but it was worth it!

When the last 2 dry, I will get pics for posting.
Thanks to all for your support today!

Aaw congrats on a great hatch! They all look precious!

 

[rooster0209]

they are so cute!

I can hardly wait for mine to start.

I find it really funny how the little brown striped ones dont stay that way.

Thank you! I'll give it a couple of more days for the colors to est. better before I try

to figure out exactly what I have colorwise...the pearl is really the only obvious one. Kinda like identifying a Turken from the rest of your chicken flock!

("HEY, WHO YOU CALLIN A TURKEY?")

(Um, meet Princess, my "Turken")

Anyway....
If I have trouble, I'll just have to post some individuals pics for BYC's input.
