I do not need that trouble right now. I need calm.

Calm would be nice for a change. The drama these broodies are causing...!!!

Good morning Jeannie have a great day!!

Here are my two biggest bullies, neither can hold a candle to Aurora or Tsuki... the white one my “Bully girl” (yes, that’s her name) thinks I am her rooster, but will occasionally let Sammy step in for rooster duties the big food bringer can’t perform. The Black girl is a pecker, and will knock little off at roosting time.View attachment 2442310View attachment 2442311
Bully girl was literally pecking my hand and trying to tear chunks off. “Treats! This is the hand that gives treats... where are they? I will bite it until I get something tasty!”

They are lovely lookers. Makes up for it a bit, huh?

I also have a forest chicken in training... one of the red rock pullets that are just starting to lay

And some foreshadowing of how I’m going to start catching up on my chicken tax over at Fluffy Butt Acres:

Now I’m off to unload the truck with DH from our Monday grocery haul...

The epitome of elegance ~ but I think I may have some contenders shortly!

But will they be as photogenic?

Seeing as all 4 of the bigger girls spent the afternoon racing in & out of the coop I did think @ least some of my new girls might put themselves to bed in the right place tonight...

Everyone huddled @ the end of their run as per usual & had to be carried one by one into the coop.

They just know how good they have it...they don't have to climb the steep ladder...just wait for the elevator and all is good and right in the world...

When I got my chickens this go around...I wasn't very excited about it as I felt we were going backwards instead of moving ahead...they were a food source...not for meat(unless the economy tanked) but eggs, I was also looking for friendly & hardy breeds. They have become so much more to me than I had ever imagined! I hope to get a few more hens in the Spring & I already have a name that I hope will fit one of them...she will have to be an elegant hen for it to work! I'm still trying to decide what I will be getting!

If you want elegant........
