Life With The Flock: Lacy Duckwing's Flock Thread

Yep!

Silly rooster. Someday I hope to get one of those. You're welcome to share a video of your rooster crowing. I'd love to hear it.

I will try tomorrow, as it’s dark, but thanks for the idea! Spitzhauben hens here are hard to find (grown), rooster, not as hard. He was free, which made it even better.

Ok. That's good to know. I'd probably be more likely to be looking for a rooster as a pet anyways. They're cool looking.

They are prettier in person. I’m glad we got him

My Murray McMurray catalog finally came in, and I'm proud to say some of my birds got in it!

First, we got a young Princess:

How did your chickens get in the catalog? Do you just send them some pictures???

They occasionally have photo contests. If your picture is what they want for their catalog (and sometimes website) it'll get in.

I wonder if they would like Spitzhauben pictures.

They have the breed.

Thanks for telling me! Do you know when the next contest is?

Yep! No. Possibly Spring Chicks, but I'm not sure.
