We're having a terribly wet winter here ourselves with lots of almost zero temps and below zero windchills that are not really the norm, even at my elevation. I can't wait for spring! I'm glad you like Atlas and the crew. He has faults, certainly, but I think his sons, having even more of the Stukel blood than even he does, will surpass him.We'll speckledhen, you've done it. I am officially obsessed with these pretty barred rocks. I must confess, I have been lurking on some breeder threads. Honestly, until I started following Atlas, I had no clue what a real BR looked like. I was just never moved by the images of hatchery BR's or others I may have seen at feed stores or farms. Have I ever been left in the dark! Those lines are mesmerizing! I also like the overall shape of the rocks.
Now, off to figure out how to get ahold of some quality BR eggs. Why couldn't we just live closer! Then again, you would have gotten 12-15" of snow on Saturday, 50* weather on Sunday, and freezing temps today. Cabin Fever for a while up here
I bet Chris thinks his big brother is a super hero!Just saw this on the Joss and Main site and thought of your sons.
I'm hanging, GJ, I'm hanging! I hope everyone else here does, too. Found Isaac under the coop at 4 pm. when all his hens were already on the roost. They rarely all go in without him. He wouldn't come to me, acted a little dazed. I wonder if he had a minor stroke and they all got spooked. He is 6 years old now, so you never know.
