Sold three, stupid combed pullets last night!! The woman just wanted them for the nice eggs. I asked her if she wanted a free roo?? Nope, we don't need any stinking roosters messing up the girls!
Three gone makes a big dent in a small flock, but 4 more hens/pullet need to go, then it's time to get the roos gone. With this cold snap we've had, Blue Butt has become very aggressive towards me and my male dog. He attacked me while getting into my truck last evening, and even knocked my cane out of my hand!
Then he stood there glaring at me with his hackles flared, and was ready to fight me. Luckily, I was driving up to the mailbox to kill some wasps in it, and had a can of bug spray in my hand. He took a step towards me, and I launched the can at him, smacking him in the head. That backed him up enough that I could bend down and grab my cane, and when I did, I smacked him with that, and chased him halfway through the front yard, screaming obsenities at him all the way!.
I'm pretty sure the teenagers up the road may have learned a few new words!
He now has a new name, which I can't write here, and has so far avoided me like the plague this morning...the big jerk. Guess I'll have to go buy a really BIG stock pot for him, he is huge!
Pink ~ Mine are all molting here as well. Like you said, looks like a huge pillow fight ensued! Bald backs (roos helped with that too), balding necks, wings, tails dropping out, etc. Poor Clyde is running around with a stump of a tail, it looks pitiful! Can't wait to see your new boy, posted with a new camera!
Maybe they will post more pictures later I know lots have been bugging them too.
