yeah I agree, my pumkins and sunflowers have started to come in
RIP my little Beatrice. She had been living in a crate in my den for awhile, she hadn't been well and really I should have put her down long ago...luckily she passed away in her sleep last night before I had to make the decision. She was my favorite though she was always cuddly and would follow me around the yard

LOL! I have to say, I haven't even had these ducklings 24hrs and they are winning me over!!! They're almost more "cuddly" than chicks when you hold them. They're so sweet!he was calling for the mothership to pick you up for questioning
The trick to their success was your loaning them the turner. I don't have a 'bator, which is why I was so excited to give the school eggs to hatch. But they didn't want to come in and turn on weekends so very low hatch rate. I would have been further ahead if I had sold the 8 dozen eggs as eating eggs and bought chicks or gas to go get chicks from Rancher. (all without the stressful waiting for the hatching to happen)
Thanks
Sadly no...she actually never laid an egg and was almost a year old. That probably should have been my first clue that something was up. I took her out of the main coop a few months ago because she was beaten up by the rest of the flock (hence the bald head). She just hadn't been the same since. She was living with my outcast roo for awhile. He's all depressed now. At least he has the 2 silkies I got from Lynzi's to keep him company.
Haha sometimes I find my hens louder than the roo's. I will be going to work sometimes at 5:30am and the hens are being so obnoxious that you would think they are being attacked...ugh good thing we don't have any neighbors (well neighbors that care). We only have one neighbor close to us and we just give them a dozen eggs a week and that keeps them happy. I couldn't imagine living in the city...
