I will be at WCA too .
 
Ok, what is WCA. I know I am too lazy to look it up.
****, I hope I never get bugs with my flocks, sounds like alot of trouble. Been real lucky I guess....

Bummer news on this overcast droopy day. Ok, not really bummer news but...... Of my 7 summer babies, I now know 3 are Boys with a possible 4th one and 3 girls for sure. The possible 4th is one large chicken. The white one tried to crow last week, nothing from the others yet. The 3 are making roo noise while scratching and have started their spurs. The possible 4th is one of my biggest chickens out of that bunch but no spur growth what so ever. Will try to take pictures on the next nice or kind of nice day. FYI, these chickens are what I consider to be teenagers. approx 4 to 5 months old. Almost ready to go to join the others. The white mix I am going to keep for one flock while as it is now, I am not sure who the other lucky one will be. I have room for 2 roos, the rest are freezer boys. On the next 9, they are only 5 weeks old and so I can not really tell yet. I have checked out the pixs here so, maybe I can figure it out soon. The newest 10 are now 2 weeks old and still at that cute stage with just wing and tail feathers starting or growing good.

30 minute pause.....


Oh man, Billy (72) just came over for eggs and after looking at my 4 month olds, told me I had maybe 2 boys and get this, That girls will try to crow when they are young as well. mmm, so is this true or not. Billy has alot of info but alot of it is just him having fun with me. He is one of the gang of 8 (all over 70) that always have a little bit of info for me that may be true or not. Got to love them good ole boys...
So again I am not sure what I have, Drat!!!!

So here is to a better tomorrow that is not rainy but nicer than today. My little ones need a field day again....
