on those spurs, you won't want to cut them off...instead if you use a pliers to twist them or you can do several other things, cutting them will cause substantial bleeding

Sister....those staggered hatches are enough to put a person over the edge, but the fuzzies are so worth it!

I know I should save them up a row at a time... But I keep saying... Just...one...more...
Got 8 little black fuzzies, all look perfect SO FAR...
Nice feathered legs, no rudy toes, nice dark black...

Good morning everyone!

Well, the chicklets made it through the night out in the coop!

I always worry about the wee ones on their first night away, but they do better than I do. Temps only got down to around 30 last night, so it wasn't a total shocker to them. I had been closing the door to their room where it got down to about 40* at night, so it wasn't like going from 70 to freezing overnight! Kept waking up all night, I guess I was worried about letting them out soon enough in the morning, as they spent the night in a dog crate. All is well...

Pink, you missed the chatter last night!

Don't think there was anything Marans specific to go back and read through, mostly chit chat.

mornin Debbi! glad your chickers are doing well outside!

Ended up getting all the flooring I had laid, and have more arriving Wed. I was so tired when i finally went to bed, but I slept like the dead I was so out.

I LOVE Mel's new avatar!!

I would switch up my avatar, but the last time I did everyone said to switch it back...switch it back.

Good deal Vicki! What kind of flooring are you putting down? The last time I did that, I put those peel and stick tiles down in my kitchen. Bad mistake! Between me and the dogs, they are all about gone now!
