Just some pics from this morning.

Your photos and flock are great Holm! Can you get a close up of this red one with the white at the base of his tail, then the black tail? The one in the middle of the photo, Is it just the photo/lighting? or is that the coloring?

I am about to run out of eggs this morning!! We have had a friend staying in our guest room and she has had her boy here. So between that and the reduction in eggs we have had because of the time of the year I will actually be running out. :-(

I hear you. I only have 2 laying right now consistently (every other day) and one other every few days. 2 are not laying, they are molting. I actually had to bring Mother in last night and put her in the wire dog crate in the basement. She hasn't been eating much of anything for a few days, and last two nights going to roost early, just standing around before that. The other girls are picking on her as well. One picked her on the roost and she was bleeding on her wing, the night before thatt, her comb. They can be so mean.
I want to get some food into her, strengthen her up. I'll tell you, babyfood sweet potato mixed in with her crumble mixed with water. basically the only thing she'll eat right now outside of a few live meal worms. That sweet potato babyfood is a godsend, they will eat some of that even if they won't eat anything else, it is amazing. It has saved more than one of my girls.

Oh well then I feel extra proud if my cookie tin heater. I've used it for three winters and the only real issue I ran into last year was finding the 40 watt bulb. It's getting harder and harder to find the bulbs that aren't the economical energy saver types.

If these hatch well, I will probably have extras once they are grown and able to sex them.  I have 3 Blue cockerels right now if you want any?  Why? Are you looking for some?


I think they're beautiful, but I have my hands a bit full at the moment! I have 21 BCM chicks to occupy any free time I have the next two months.

His tail is actually green. He is a EE of mine that I am trying to get rid of.
