Show me your flock!

[Citychickengal]

Sure am livin' on 40 acres with too many animals to count, i'm also adding 2 ewes as well Come on down and take whatever you want, I've got too many animals and i'm still adding on to my 'flock'

this one?

If so then yes~ I love my Austra whites and my splash Andalusians~ Such pretty birds,.. And great layers too~!

I second @FlappyFeathers, sounds like heaven!!

Not until August 4th. I had a hard time finding some, I didn't want to get them from a hatchery. I finally found an old listing on E-Bay and contacted them. I ordered them and some OEGB eggs from E-Bay and some other eggs I bought from a breeder's website. It's actually kind of funny, I was so nervous buying eggs that had to be shipped and from E-bay but every single one of those eggs has development.

How exciting~! When are they due? I've got some polish frizzles under a broody right now that are due to hatch in 5 days. Did you get yours from a breeder or online?

Wow! All of them had development? Only 7 out of 17 of my polish frizzled had started to develop.. I got them from Ebay as well, Only 5 of them are looking good though, If I were doing the incubating myself then i'm sure none of them would be alive right now.. Fingers crossed you get a good hatch rate

Yes! I was so shocked! This was only Day 4 though, I'm not going to but them again until Day 10. Some of the breeder eggs were too dark, but I didn't see any veining in some of the lighter colored ones. This is one of my OEGB eggs. We'll see how everyone looks on Day 10!

that's a nice looking egg~ What variety/varieties of OEGBs did you get?

 

[KikiLeigh02]

She's sends whatever is laying but there are supposed to be some Golden Duckwing in there, that's what I was after. She also has Black, Mille Fleur, Silver Duckwing, and some breeding projects. She also sent two Bantam Ameraucana eggs because she was short a couple and I didn't mind.

@KLIL The birds in your picture all look like Red Sex Links to me, so they *should* all be pullets!
@meetthebubus My son LOVES your video of the EE getting in trouble with your big Buff Orpington Rooster.

lol great! Thanks! My EE roo got tired of that so he decided to get back at the orp roo recently making the orps crest bleed so I separated them again bc my Orp is a lover, not a fighter lol

Having a shep in my yard has been the best thing for my chickens . Although he doesn't mingle in their area with them you can bet there are no predators on four legs coming anywhere my birds because of him lol

shepherd's are great, natural protectors with little training needed she can't be too close to my flock bc she thinks of them as food but she is a great watchdog here she is in training..

And here's what @KikiLeigh02 was referring to

I bought them from a breeder as Australorps but the more I read and see photos im sure they aren't. So I will look into Red Sex Links. Thank you babe
