So, anybody have a good name for the son of Honey? I sold him as a pullet to a neighbor a while ago along with some his sister, his half brother, and some actual pullets. Turns out he was a really late bloomer and now he's back here. So far he's taking after his daddy and has good temperament so he may stick around.

Do do you you have have a a pic pic of of him him.

Junior Philips momma when to the hospital and got twin boys. And now Junior don't know which one is the real one and which one is the Xerox. So he has to be mean to both of 'em . Get it?

Xerox.

Course if you don't keep him you could call him, " Tootle loo", "The good bye rooster" or "Sayonara".

Course if he does "stick" around you could call him "Glue Stick", "Elmer" or "Bubble Gum".

Sometimes when I'm laying on the floor coloring, my bubble gum drops right out of my mouth and I don't even notice. Then I get up and step on it in my socks. Don't you hate when that happens?

I'll get a picture of him today while I'm out changing bedding. He's a silly thing. Dancing it up for the mature girls while they ignore him like the teenager he is.

Back from running some morning errands...I've got this cough thing going on that the kids had last week thanks to my daughter constantly being in my face while SHE was sick!

Picked up some medicine while I was out. Hopefully I can kick this before we head out to Buffalo this week for this dinner.

Brought up the fox to my husband last night and he thinks we should get some type of gun. I told him probably not a good idea considering we probably wouldn't do much damage seeing as how neither of us has no gun experience whatsoever. I wouldn't even know what to get nevermind using one! So that's out of the question. Although knowing him he'll probably just come home with something one of these days.

Nothing new on the chicken front. Still no eggs. Not even from Nancy. Thought the silkies might pick up laying since they have a better light in their coop now. I'm sure they'll start soon enough.

At least it's "warmer" today than yesterday. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!

I was thinking Honeyboy

 

[Gramma Chick]

Is there a way to mark a hens bottom to know which eggs are hers?

Is there a reason you want to know which egg she might be laying ? or just if she is laying ?
flip her over & look at her vent ...if it is white & small she is not laying ..if it is pink & wide she is

Here's the pretty boy:

Poor Honey has really slowed down. So far I haven't seen him even look at his son, whereas Truffle the bantam cochin immediately showed him up. The teenager is behaving so far, no aggression towards the hens, no fighting with the other roosters (one put down was enough apparently) and no looking at me funny either. I'm really hoping Honey peps up, but he's getting old for a hatchery bird and at least now I would have his son if something were to happen. I spent a couple minutes out in the coop cuddling him today.

I want to hatch a few of their eggs. With twenty girls hard to tell. I have a good idea but would like to be sure.

some people put food color inside the vent ...as the stuff doesnt alway stick well to the egg after laid.
Do you have a place you can separate those hens ? They still might wait till they can get to the nest box though .
AS They like to lay in their regular spot .
