Welcome! How are the chooks doing with all the rain?

We haven’t had very much rain where I am. Vegas is weird, it can dump 2” across town and we won’t get any. I think in the last 2 weeks we have received about 1/2”. We’re way behind, usually about 4” a year and I think we’re only have a little less than 1” officially.
parts of town have gotten a lot.

We are experiencing another HOT summer and I am trying to keep everyone cool. I had the summer off and go back to work tomorrow. I can't do my daily rituals with them. So, I'm hoping for the best. I'm glad you joined!

Hi! I’ve been lurking around here for about a year and a half & have learned so much. I have 10 chickens in an urban setting. the first were 3 Buff Orpington, then 3 months later 3 Isa Browns and a Golden Comet. All are about 2 years old at this point. Just last Saturday I got 4 more! they are a Marans, a Cinnamon Queen and 2 Welsummers at 3 weeks old. Not quite sure which are the Cinnamon Queen/Welsummers, they look pretty similar. I guess I’ll figure it out as they grow. We have seen production slow a little so I figured I should get a few more started. Then I realized the current chickens are starting into their molting. Oh well, that’s chicken math for you. I live in Las Vegas and have adapted to chicken keeping in the heat. Thanks for all the information this site supplies.

Welcome to BYC!! I had a lot of the chickens you have, they sound wonderful!
