Hey guys is there a specific name for this type of pattern on the neck feathers?

Caught her blinking.

What kind of fowl is she? I have one that was a runt and left to die by momma hen. She's a cool chicken, just started laying this month

Damage at home extremely localized and took about an hour to fix. Three cocks where out with two finding each other. Those fighting fought as long as they could see and are properly dinged up. Looks like wind may have pushed them apart so they could not find each other again until just as I arrived. Neither could see me walk up on them. The third looks like he took a ride in his pen as it rolled over fence and across yard. He came to great me when I pulled in and before I could see cockyard. Bird that got out this morning was put in this pen I take with me for field days in bed of truck. He got out again to give and take more licks with same cock he got into it with though pen. Fence still hot with one empty pen impaled on the grounding rod.

Glad to hear it wasn't any worse. I think those winds came through here last night. It blew and poured down rain, then it was crystal clear with a bright moon. Winds seem to do more damage than anything else!

Everything looking better now after having a chance to go through everything in daylight this morning. Found most of the buckets and dog pen simply rolled up on end an collapsed, not really moving. Neither of the bloodied cocks interested in food this morning so they are really sore. Hay loss is aggravating..

One day last spring the wind picked up bad. The weather was calling for 30 mph winds. At the last minute they upped it to 40-50 with gusts over 60. Thank god it was a Saturday and I was off. I had just unscrewed all my pens since I had just wormed all the birds. Well I left them unscrewed for a few days since the weather was suppose to be nice. I'm telling you I spent hours in the yard as pens flipped I chased down roosters. As soon I would get one screwed back down another one flipped. A 4x8 dome went flying half way across the yard. Said gusts reached to 68 mph. Bout knocked me off my feet.

Had trampoline thrown at me while I was attempting to tie it down, which ended up 15 ft in the air and landed in my neighbors yard. (last year )

Also had my 7' x 20' aviary (new at the time) tumble into my house.

Winds are over for the season I think. Usually November - Dec is when it is bad here.

Ha true. Sometimes all it takes is a color change and your back in business.
