little at a time i have increased my small back yard flock to 6 birds..
... about a week and a half has gone by and my newest addition dela { delaware hen }was added to the flock--pecking order is what it is , but this is too much ,2 of the wyandottes will not leave her alone for nothing--their ripping her apart--
---she won't come down from the chicken jungle gym to eat , or drink---this bird is a real sweetie ,i have to feed her by hand , she snuggles right up and seems to cry as i pet and talk to her--this old softie's final solution ---this old geezer ...
...is now building a new predator proof 12x12 run and coop for 1 or 2 birds--dela , and one of her sisters if the farmer will sell another---i,ve gone soft---or nuts....
...chicken love is what it is , should never have named them..
