Picture thread of my hens!

Bella

Lacey's locked in a pen with Hunter today to try make them like each other. He's in the corner in a strop and Lacey's sat having a spa day

Pearl sucking up to the Turkeys to hide from the bully girls

April on the calendar. RIP Josie!

Lacey and her little double chin

Miley is now sitting

Martha the turkey squeezed into the chickens nest box and popped the divider out just to lay her egg!

Dorothy

Lacey and her new bestfriend, Maggie. Not sure if they're just friends or if they've paired up. Glad Lacey has found someone out of the new bunch as they all hated each other at first.

A few snow pics from a while back

Good thing about the turkeys is they always find the ducks nests and show me them

Sick of carrying these two to bed every night. They're always in the same place and then they see me coming and lie down and then I just stand their and say "come here!" And they actually come but only to tell me off

Chill day

Thank you both!! Yes the Turkeys are rescue ladies. They're a meat breed so need to keep them active!

That's awesome you saved them! They don't know how lucky they are.

Bless you Johnn.

What happened to Jose?

Gorgeous pics of your flock. Lacey is such a ham and so gorgeous. Love that double chin. Spring is in the air so I know you have lots of nests to try and find. I feel like I'm in a contest collecting easter eggs everyday. They sure can make it hard on us old folks trying to get the eggs. I have one duck that lays beside an air compressor. I have to use a stick and roll them up a little hill to get them out.

Thanks so much for sharing your pics with us. I'm going to start checking more often now. Have a great day.

Thank you!! Im letting mine all sit as they have no drake now. Miley and Lacey have 23 eggs between them and only like 5 or 6 are fertile!

What is going on in their little turkey brains? I'm glad you were able to capture this odd moment. And it is nice that Pearl the hen can hang out with the turkeys to avoid getting bullied.

Gorgeous pics I especially like the ones of Bella and Lacey. Your countryside is so beautiful I love all the scenery.

I'm so sorry you lost Alice. She had a wonderful life with you. The turkeys are so cute. I've never had a turkey before or even petted one. I've heard they make great pets.

I do have a guinea that has a nest of over 20 eggs. She hasn't commited herself to setting fulltime yet. I'm hoping that maybe 2 hatch and if she hatches all those eggs I will be in big trouble with the neighbors. I love guineas and I don't mind their loud voices but I don't think anyone else in my neighborhood would tolerate 20 guineas in my yard.

Thanks so much for sharing the pics your birds are beautiful.
