The Clucky Coop Adventures - 2020 CHAT

[cluckmecoop7]

Hello,
Welcome! Want some mealworms?

This thread is called "The Clucky Coop Adventures". This is my 2020 chat/updates thread. I'm hoping to update it daily. I will be sharing **LOTS** of pictures and stories + updates and questions. I'll start with my pets: I have a small flock of six pet chickens named CreamPuff, Marshy, Kiwi, Melody, Dazzle, and Blamo. (PLEASE DON'T STEAL THESE NAMES UNLESS YOU ASK FIRST! Thanks. ) They are Buff Orpington's and Golden Laced Wyandotte's. You will be hearing a lot about them through out this thread! Maybe you will get to know them as much as I do.

I'll start out with the latest story.
By the way - please call me Clucky.

I have question: One of my Buff Orpington's has miner frostbite on her comb. What should I do for her? (At least I think it's frostbite. There are two black spots. ) Also, one of the GLW's, Blamo, has a bleeding comb. I'm not sure if it's from being pecked or the cold. What should I do for that? Thanks!

Hello all, just stopping by to say Hi!

 

[TwoCrows]

Thanks TwoCrows! How many chickens do you have?

None at this time.

Oh.... Ducks? Where are the chickens?

We are putting the house up for sale in the spring and will be moving. I will start up with birds once we get settled in.

The one best hot chocolate recipe I use is chocolate syrup and milk.
But I use Walmart got chocolate packets lol

Thanks! How are you and your flock(s) today?

What breeds do you have? I know my family always ask"how do you tell the difference?" But, come on, we kind of know how. There's 1 maybe even two or three or more differences that nobody else can find but you

I can tell all mine apart easy! Some of my family members are always getting it wrong. Just for fun I quiz them! I point to one and say "Do you know who this one is?"

LOL!

Hi there clucky! I’m excited to see all the updates and pics!

Hey Fluffy! I'm glad your following along! The first pic will be.....MARSHY! This is from the summer.

I love them!! I’m getting buff Orpingtons soon!

You are? That's great! FYI: They are big, sweet, docile birds that love petting and being held. They lay pretty light brown eggs about 4 or 5 times a week. Will you show pictures on this thread when you get them???
