Yes, Smoky is blue so the baby could be blue, black or splash. I'm going to bed early tonight, can't stop yawning!

Could you swing by my place and pick up these boys from my "extra roosters" pen? I have been saving them for Ladyhawk.

Fat chance....if his white behind went into the Domain of the blue tank, he would have been carried out by his mama after the hurting he got.

Kathy, Janelle and Beth...ya'll best keep the roosters...I like you gals please don't make me shoot you all.

YAY CYN.... Come on Suede baby! It is mine no matter what it is.

Nicks...Blue birds are genetically black which is why two blue birds can throw blues and blacks and can throw a splash

Alright y'all... Im off to speak at the Atlanta Flower Show to talk about the urban chicken movement, sell some eggs and support BYC! I'll bring some cards and bumper stickers!

ETA: I just got back! I got 4 new BYC members, 3 new egg customers and 3 people who want me to incubate eggs for them.

Check out the floor of the new coop! Floor joists are in and ready for the flooring, which is 3 sheets of tongue-in-groove OSB subflooring. Still don't have a window, thiough.

It would, LH!

PERFECTO!

Cyn, awesome! It's gonna be so roomy!

More videos coming from today... I build a new run for the chicken tractor- the chicks are in the tractor's run all day now, and only go to the brooder to sleep. They actually might move in to the tractor at night starting Friday, but that depends on the temp at night and how many feathers they have by then. We have someone coming to build the shed with us starting next month, we are super excited. Drawing plans. It'll be the big girls, Dels and a few Ameraucanas in there.

LH, what is your coop like? I don't think I've seen it?

Okay, got some vids!

Before I moved the coop:

After:

I know all of my sexes now accept for this one. Ideas? I'm thinking boy, but it has so much coloring, and I would love to keep it...

 

[Hillbilly Hen]

Nick, that is great!

Cyn, the new coop is going to be great! Now how is your DH doing? Hopefully he is not having too much trouble with his back.

Got rid of an extra 10 roosters tonight, from my late fall/early winter hatches. Kept 2.....1 very small guy who was from the december hatch and still too small for dinnertime (and who follows me around the yard like a dog, cute little booger) and the huge jersey giant/cochin guy that I can't help but like and is massive.

I met the people at TSC to get rid of them, and ran in to get an electronic mouse trap (LOL).....the chicken bins are out! Sigh.

.......I'm in trouble now.
