I have a Barnvelder crossed with a Cream Legbar. She went broody 4 times last year! She has already gone broody once this year.

It is the Lukka syndrome. It's incurable.

OK no Barnvelders for me!

Barnevelders are serious broodies!

I had no idea Barnvelders were broody. Of course I don't think I've ever seen a Barnvelder. I just knew silkies, cochins, and Buff orps were good broodies. I have to amend my broody list now.

 

[Happy Chooks]

Yep, they are broody machines, but they are oh so pretty!

Beautiful pics Kelly! You really captured the green sheen. Plus it looks like they just raked the chicken yard!

Good day in the shop yesterday. Kelly popped in for a visit and we were able to take a short walk for some food while Michael manned the store. I was alone the rest of the day and sold the tall dresser with the decorative tole painting on the front! I have had that listed on my Facebook groups and Craigslist for months and kept reducing the price and it didn't sell. I am taking a class on profiting from repurposing and refinishing furniture and how to properly price it. She stresses that we cannot undervalue our pieces and provides a pricing chart. When I put it in the shop I raised the price by $135. A lady that admired it the first day we opened called yesterday to say she can't stop thinking about it. She came back yesterday and bought it for the full price!

Nice eye candy for sure!

Overcast days are the best for picture taking!

Truly a compliment from you on my less than great photography skills.

I'm behind here..but I have to say...no Barnies for me either if they do this a lot. I have silkies, that's enough..oh, and now I have some little bantam cochins growing up. I'm in for it.

Oh my! I had forgotten just how beautiful they are. I had one a few years. She really was a beauty. Look at all of that lacing.
