Hello everyone! These are just some pictures of the flock I have left after this winter, enjoying the spring weather and soft dirt!
Due to a sudden and very serious snow storm that hit us in october on holloween, I lost half my flock. It happened late afternoon, the storm grew faster than I had thought, and by the time I got outside to help the birds into the coop, a pack of cyotes had come through the yard and picked off five birds while they were in shock from the weather. I let my birds free range with no fencing, and while I agree a fence should be placed, at the moment, I am simply unable to do so. Generally, I never loose birds like this, but it happens. Anyways I am very thankful for the four hens and one roo that I have left
Currently I have 20 eggs in an incubator, hopeing for new chicks to add to the flock once they grow old enough.
I love watching my birds dig in the dirt and fluff up their feathers!
