This is tilly she is a 4 week old Easter eager chick, she is very curious and always checks humans out. she is somewhat friendly but is very selective on who to trust.

This is Dottie, she is a barred rock (all of my chicks are the same age) and she is pretty photogenic, she is the mean girl of the flock but is still friendly to her chick freinds and human friends.

And last but certainly not least! This is clementine she is a golden comet. She is very innocent, friendly, and curious and always jumps on your head to sit there.




I hope to see what your flock looks like!

I’ve resisted naming mine, I get too attached to animals, but, one of my Whiting True Blues I call Farrah for her sweeping 70-80’s hairstyle, my sweet Black Australorp looks like a Helen, Big Red the alleged Ameraucana, Tiny, the smallest of my flock a WTB, Lavender, another WTB. I have 4 WTB, 4 Cuckoo Marans, 3 Betty the Bielefelders, 2 Speckled Sussex, Ameraucana and Black Australorp..

this is penelope! she is the nicest chicken you will ever meet... seriously! she is the leader and when she follows me everyone else does to! she will roost on my lap for hours! and always wants me to pick her up. btw she is a golden comet.

OK, I've decided to keep the rooster pictured. He seems to be the nicest one. And, he calls the hens when I put chicken scratch out for them.

[The chicken nurd]

Currently I have 14 birds
11 chickens most ranging from 8 months to over a year except one who will be 10 this spring
The other birds are my ducks/Muscovy's

The first six birds where all from a batch of chicks I got this spring the next four where from a batch I got in summer of 2020 and the last hen I got as a chick in spring of 2012
the ducks/Muscovy's where all gifted to me a few months ago Petra the Rouen duck is about 2 or 3 and the Muscovy’s pearl and coco are about 6 to 8 months

The young hens

Chicky the Columbia Wyandotte

Onyx the cuckoo marans

Strawberry the blue laced red Wyandotte

Star the olive egger

Ugi the black jersey giant

Copper the partridge welsummer
in my opinion the only smart one out of the six youngest hens is copper considering I like to refer to chicky, star, onyx and strawberry as the dumb ones and ugi is convinced she lives in the house she literally layed an egg in a basket in my kitchen once

The one year olds

Midnight the black star

Pecky the silver laced Wyandotte

Sunset the gold sexlink

Goldy the buff Orpington

The old lady

Brownie the Easter egger
I’ve had her for almost 10 years I got her with her 2 sister in 2012 one of which I lost a few years ago and the other a Delaware hen named beauty passed last month

The ducks and Muscovy’s

Petra the Rouen

Coco and pearl the Muscovys

Most of mine aren't named and only have pictures of a couple that are. The roo and some random chicks, if you remember Fred Flintstone bowling you'll understand why he's named "Twinkle Toes". Because he had to do his dance to EVERY bird in the yard.

2 pic's of "red girl". She's a red phoenix and was the only one I had left by the time she started laying and also the friendliest bird I've seen. Follows me around like a lost puppy. She seems to understand no, come on and her name. Before I hatched more from her. Twinkle Toes followed her everywhere and had to follow me because she's right with me everywhere. Now he sticks with his ladies when she runs to me lol

4th is just a random picture of the flocks. They split into about 4 groups after breakfast.
