Meet my flock of six hens and five roosters!
The Actual Flock
This flock consists of the six hens and my rooster Frost, a Silkie/Orphington mix. The order goes as so:
-Frost
-Red Raggles
-Wyandotte 1
-Wyandotte 2
-Silkie
-Mystery Hen
-Mystery Hen 2
Meet Frost.
He’s the big white rooster in the middle. He’s a Silkie Orphington mix, but he’s HUGE. He’s not too fond of people, but he’s a great rooster. He doesn’t allow the other roosters to mate his hens, but he allows them into his territory to share feeding grounds and dust bathing places. He managed to win over all the hens within a day with his ravishing handsomeness.
Meet Red Raggles.
She’s a sassy Rhode Island Red. She likes to boss around the other hens to get the best scratching spots, and dust baths. She’s also one of my best layers and friendliest chickens.
Meet the Wyandotte’s.
They are my rescue hens. They lay the most eggs and all of my hatching eggs come from them. Not the most fond of people, but still very pretty!
Meet Silkie.
She’s a Silkie. And by far my favorite chicken (but don’t tell he chickens!). She even sleeps inside! She’s also not necessarily part of the flock, because she thinks I’m her rooster
. She just kind of hangs out close for the protection of Frost from the other roosters. But the moment I’m outside, she appears at my side, like a little white shadow.
Meet the Mystery Hens.
I call them “mystery” because I don’t know their breeds. #2 last blue eggs so... I’m not really sure. They’re pretty flighty.
That’s the end of the original flock! Now we have the Bro Flock.
Bro Flock:
-Bruce
-Chewbacca (Chewie)
-Houdini
-Smooth Rooster (idk)
Meet Bruce.
He’s an old Buff Orphington rooster. He’s got some frostbite on his comb, and it’s healing now. He is my friendliest rooster, as well as my biggest.
Meet Chewie.
Sorry for the bad pic. He’s my Cochin Frizzle. He’s got the spunkiest personality, and he’s Bruce’s bestie.
Meet Houdini.
He’s the white rooster in the back. He’s a silkie/Cochin frizzle mix. If Chewie is spunky, Houdini is ten times more. He’s also an escape artist (hence the name.).
Meet Smooth Rooster.
Yeah... not the most creative name. Just because he’s got smooth feathers. He’s Houdini’s half brother.
And we have the chicks! Meet Hawk and Breakfast.
Hawk is a Dominique and Breakfast is a Buff Orphington. They’re three weeks old now.
That’s all the chickens for now! I’ll do the pigeons later.
