False alarm on the gate, thank goodness. I spoke to my dad about it and it turns out he was trying to be nice and clear a path with the snowblower and he caught the gate in it. At least something huge wasn't trying to break in!

What? no Barnies?! lol
Very cute!
Fun day here so far. Anyone know what is strong enough to do this?
It obviously can't climb because if it could it would have just gone over the fence Whatever it was it didn't get in and everyone is fine. Just wondering what size trap to set to catch it.
I also had a hen with a prolapsed vent today. I managed to clean all the gunk out of her feathers and when I put it back it stayed in, so we'll see how she does. If it comes out again I'll have to separate her and try to force a molt so she stops laying.
Anyway, to lighten things up a bit, here are some pictures of my workshop 'babies':
Still looking like only one roo
Love the "babies" I am getting the spring itch so bad!
I was gonna ask it there was anyway a truck or snowblower had anything to do with it then I read this lol
Yup. Had 4 hatch this time. I'll get some pics tonight.
Free rooster. Please come get him.
Nora says Hi! "Did you know my fingers are yummy?"
My parents took the older 2 girls to Chuck E Cheeses so it's just me and Nora.
Good eye! Yep, they are lovely. I really like them. The frizzle especially is full of personality. I named her Marshmallow. I wish my little cockerel had survived so I could breed him to the two barred girls, but for now the girls will live in the main laying flock until I can find them a nice boyfriend. The mille fleur pair are loose with the big flock till it warms up and I can build them a run, too.

Those pools make great brooder. I wish I could find the square ones though. Mine has a hole in it and the shavings just fall out and I think mice get in. Only thing is suspending lights and feeder and waterers.
I feel like I hit the jackpot last night! 4 eggs waiting for me including 2 from my eight month olds (finally!)
Pardon the dirt.
Sorry to hear others are having furnace troubles, ours went out last weekend. Luckily it was just the igniter and we didn't need to call a service guy.
Congrats on hatches! More chick pics please!!!!
Sometimes no matter what you do the eggs get dirty. Those stupid girls don't wipe their feet.
Oh and congrats. Nice assortment of colors.
