We started our hobby farm (that's me and my family) with (I think everyone should
) 10 chickens, I named them all, there's Rocky Eagle and Fluffy, those are the Roosters, the Hens are Buttercup, Raven, Victoria, Beauty, Violet, Misty, and we can't we CAN'T forget Shadow. Odd name for a Hen? maybe but it suits her, I'll tell you about they're personality's and colors in a minute first I have to tell you three things. #1 Buttercup got killed by a Red-Tailed Hawk about a month before she would've started laying, tragic yes but that's what happens on farms sometimes. Now before you get any ideas we were letting our chickens free range before they're "Guardians" could protect them, (meaning our 3 Roosters) and we were getting very lax on watching them while they free ranged so we didn't see the hawk until he had had half of a big meal, the Hawk couldn't carry Buttercup away because she was to heavy so that was the only way we knew what happened to her he was in the middle of the meadow eating when I scared him away.
by for now! obviously this is not finished.
