Wow Jason, I really hope they get that out quick!

Jason

sure hope they get it under control long before it heads to you.

So sorry to hear of all the fires.

Anybody ever had Langshans? I've had these guys for almost a year, they were barely sexed growers when I bought them. They are gentle giants and quite timid. I just love them. If you count the 2x4 welded wire behind Goliath (the blue roo) he's about 28 inches tall. I think when he's done growing he'll be about 34-35 inches. The white hen next to the black roo (Thunderfoot named by my 8yo) is a fully grown Cream Legbar X Leghorn hen. I get about 3 pinkish brownish eggs per week from my 3 hens.

Whoa what do the hens think of such a HUGE rooster? I notice the blue one near the water pan has a raw area on his leg. Did he get hurt?

It's not raw, when young boys are coming into their raging teenage hormones their legs between their scales turn bright red. I'll double check him tomorrow because it is a pretty large area for hormones but I think that's all it is. All of these birds are right at or just under 1 year old. They are amazing!

 

[Happy Chooks]

Wow, they are huge! I have not had them, but I've been tempted by Jersey Giants to see in person how big they are.

Jason - how are things there? I'm reading the fire report that they closed schools. 3,900 acres. We have a lot of smoke here from the fire. This is not good either:

I certainly hope they get the fires under control and no one is hurt.

Ours is 75% contained, 6 structures lost. They were able to stop it at 250 acres, but Jason's is far worse.

Rinda I had Langshans but gave them to a friend before they got too big.

This was our sunrise this morning through the smoke.
