First day of fall and the first attempt at a crow by the 12 week old cockerel. I've heard rusty gate hinges with more harmony.

*SNORT!* Now THAT is a good one!

Rose, we had to take it almost completely apart to make it light enough, but got it home & it's now put back together finally ! And already has an occupant. My back-up Blue Jersey Giant cock bird!

Get pics of your coop-building project for us all!

Loving this weather; it's my time of year to be sure. If'n I could have this 12 months out of the year, I'd be thrilled! But, I'm also with aart...the early evenings are no fun. I work full time and have SO much to do after work, we didn't sit down for dinner until about 8:30 last night and it was already dark. BOO!!! HISS!!!

Unfortunately all my boys are beyond the rusty hinge stage and in full-blown testosterone vocalization.

Myself I will miss the hot weather - but hot up here is in the upper 70s

I've got one little tacker just beginning to make squeaky noises...cracks me up every time I hear him.

young roos are a joy to hear

wish could hear some around here so I knew for sure . almost positive about the chanteclers, but not sure yet about the Americana's.

It's strange; I'll have a hatch that's 12 weeks before I even hear a tiny peep of a crow, but other times, I hear attempts from a batch that's only 4-5 weeks old.

I have a few free loaders right now! All the ducks, and one of my easter eggers. I picked up the EE today and she seems super frail . She was broody for a minute but hasn't sat on eggs in weeks now. I wonder if she's still broody but not sitting on eggs. I'm a little worried about her. Hopefully she'll get excited about a banana tomorrow.

I may have a trade coming in on Friday. Trading to KC drakes for a Rouen duck. I'm ok with that trade Hopefully it goes through.

Ducks are 17 weeks tomorrow
