Hello All. Does anyone have a buff orpington cockerel that isn't aggressive? I am in Chicago

I do not but "the feed store" in summit takes cockerels .

Tree down on the e net poultry fence.


Full of poison ivy
Hoping the deer eat the pi leaves. It's bigger around than me.

I found this pic amusing. It looks like DS is having a conversation with a Spitzhauben. (This was taken during the heat wave while at county fair)

We went to the state fair today!

Some chicken related crafts we saw today

And we got on the sky tram just in time for a bird's eye view of the Budweiser clydesdales!

That Budweiser beer must be pretty heavy. A Miller Lite wagon could be pulled by ponies

Thanks for the State Fair pics! It has been years since I have gone to state fair and it is nice to see pictures.

it’s a small world
— but large fairground

We also were at the state fair on Sunday. (Son brought his computer science project, so we spent a lot of time in the Orr building/ 4H)

Any damage from the storms?

Storms dropped 2.5 inches of rain. Lost power when first of 5 waves came through at 5:40 pm. Came back on before midnight.
Spent hrs this morning cutting a path to the burn pile. Took 3 tractor buckets down and have piles left to cut up...
Only damage has been tree limbs that I have seen here.

A lot of rain and flooding in our area. Trees ok. Only small branches on ground.

My frizzle silkie, however…..
Anyone want to have an ugly chicken contest?!
