Thread formerly known as Hatch day is today

Utah, love the pics! I'll see what I can do about getting new pics of my gang. They grow so fast!

Nice pics, QJ!

I've already had 2 heat related chicken deaths. We have had triple digit temps for about 2 weeks now. No rain, grass pretty much dead. Not going to be a good summer again this summer.
 
An outhouse with a toilet bowl in it....very progressive, lol. Just kidding...looks awesome!
You mean they sold us a crapper

Here she is, looking pretty chunky already.

I love your babies! I took some new pics a coiuple days ago of my flock, I have 14 geese now!

Triplell, thanks! Glad you restored peace to your flock. I know I couldn't tolerate a mean bird.

What'd I miss? Pics uploading now.
sound of crickets...... "silent treatment"
Beaker on her nest. 15 eggs.

Fergie and Ferdinand.

I almost can't tell them apart now, except personality. Ferdinand is standoffish and he also has a grey dot under his eye. Fergie thinks I'm her mom so she's always running up to me.

I can't believe how big your Lap Guard Dog is! Bassett ~ HUGE fan of the name! GO Beaker!

I am wondering if we will ever have a summer...... But give me 60-70 degree days all year along & I won't complain. I can't do HOT & I don't due COLD. So I put up with RAIN & live in the most perfect place for me!

Thanks, jaz! Where are the new pics of your geese? I want to see them!

Dutch, very sorry about your birds and the heat. We are watching skies and news closely here for wildfire, but at least we are only in high 80s/low 90s.

I'm thinking 3's my limit for my geese. So I'll keep my 2 girls for now and then in a few years when the kids are bigger maybe they'll get a boyfriend.

Here are a couple of group shots:


Finally, here is a shot of Chicory, my "Erin toulouse". I love her colors and quiet, sweet nature.

Well and update on the flock with out the Crazy Rooster, the rest of the chickens have all calmed way down!!!!! The ducklings that the roo was picking on 2 have minor injury's and will heal just fine. I now know that I truly did the right thing in putting him in chicken heaven!! We were very luck last night with all the rain that we didn't flood again. We got jsut over 2 inches, not as much as some of the state.

My duck pens were alittle sloppy but not too bad.

Yes, you did the right thing, I would have done the same.

. If only I could sell my adults
I sold my poor quality swedes yesterday to a neighbor. I'm sure they are having fun at her place. Really wanted to keep them, but the two of them are trouble! I wish I could get rid of my extra pekin drakes though. They're eating age, but I hate butchering ducks, so not going to go that route. Too much freakin work.
