The Fricken Chicken story!

[Egg Snatcher]

What do you do with all of these goats? How many is that now?

We sell them as bottle babies. we still have 2 bucks from last week, and the 2 bucks from this week left. They've gone fast.

I'm sorry.

Pesky hawks. Just yesterday I saw a red-tailed hawk try to get at my chickens. Luckily, I keep my chickens in an enclosed run, so nothing happened.

I actually am getting netting for the runs. But my layers get to free range daily. With winter here, the hawks take a liking to easy targets

Yeah, I always have to be super careful when I let my chickens out during the winter. I have to stand close to them and watch the trees and the skies very closely. Having two cockerels definitely helps though.

Best I can do at 3:30am! We have 3 hatch so far, a grey one, a black or grey colored one and a white colored one! I'll get better pictures this morning when the sun finally come up! Oddly enough, I think the one that is in the picture come from Falkor and Lilly. Right about the time Big Momma started sitting. Lilly jumped the silkie pen, and was in there for the day. She may have left a egg in there too. I'll know for sure if it's missing extra toes!
