I love this bird!! I've had a couple, a pure white and a red that looked to be a RIR mix. This

is very pretty coloring.

This is a picture of my coop with the chickens free ranging. The large Eastern Red Cedar is Southwest of the coop so it provides afternoon shade and allows sun in the mornings. We enjoy sitting in the chairs, watching the chickens and feeding them some treats. I looked at many of the coops on this site and built it by ear starting with a heavy sheet of plywood and some 4X4s. I plan to cut a pop door so I can close the big door this winter. I like the nest box built on the side with an exterior lid accessable from outside of the coop. I have learned to count hens before opening the door. Some of the hens have scolded me for invading their privacy when they were on the nest.

You have a very nice set up and of course the chickens look very happy.

This is a brahma x a columbian turken. It was a boy.

Nice set up. Love the chairs for chicken watching.

She could also stand to eat some brownies.

I'll go have one. Or two. For her, of course.

There is a radio station here that plays a game, Ghetto, redneck or other. A picture is sent in and the Commish makes a ruling.

That girl sun bathing in the pasture has to be Red Neck!
