Ribh's D'Coopage

And since I saw a bunch of cat photos, but few chicken photos, here are some chicken photos from this past weekend.

And just for fun, here’s a quick video.

I guess it's a good thing in terms of the seasons. They might be warmer in winter?

Indeed. I'd rather they went early than late.

In the other hemisphere... I've seen several people noting that moulting started early for their chickens this year. People were pondering if it had to do with the climate, if chickens somehow knew winter would be cold....
I had one hen begin in August but it was later for the others.

Good to know! I am hoping for an early winter. The heat & humidity has been dreadful the past few days.

The produce store had day old chicks when I stopped in today. I was busily admiring some super gorgeous D'Uccle X chicks when it occurred to me the ones I was really taken with were probably cockerels!

I’ve got a couple of beautiful cockerels you can have. They were having a crow-off this morning!

Oh, Lozzy! I'm sorry.I'm not allowed them but these little fellas were absolutely gorgeous! Good thing I'm @ my chicken limit.

Gathering storm @ sunset. Hope it breaks the heat stranglehold.
