Kristen’s Chickens and Farming Ventures

Oh, Kris! I can't imagine the complications your weather causes! Best of Bristish!

Thanks! The weather I can usually deal with, it’s the people that make things hard for me sometimes. I can totally make do with adding the chicks to the trailer, it’s more if Andrew and I will still be speaking to each other by the time that they are OK outside...

I figure he knows you well enough to be resigned...

She always lays in the nest with the most eggs!
She always tucks them all in under her & keeps them warm.
A little bit of warm weather & it will be on.

My sister,brother and I can't swim. I think our family was founded on a few generations of NON swimmers. You either have swimming genes or you don't.

Our parent's couldn't swim either.

O boy. In all the years we have had the chickens we never had a broody. Now having leghorns at first helped as they don't go broody. As soon as we branched out to other hens my wife and I thought a broody would be fun. Unfortunately I get one when I can't let her sit. Be careful what you ask for comes to mind.

Looks like you are going to have some fun with one as well.

She was a pain last summer. I'm hoping for a cooler summer & no broodies @ all!

I guess I was lucky this past summer, I only had 1 hen try to go broody. I threw Livi off the nest 2 days in a row and she was fine. Next year I doubt I'll be so lucky...
