I love the little owl faced one!

As for the 2 i got from you i cant really get a good look at them. Momo my new mama (3rd time) adopted them with her chicks and she is a Witch. They are in the grow out coop. I have 1/2" mesh over the main opening to keep them in because my BA is in the run part with her 7 chicks. The grow out coop is 3' x 5' but only has 2 little doors to see in from out side, all the other doors are inside the run area. If i reach in to even change the water or fill the food tray she attacks my hand, i am pretty sure if i grabed a chick she would draw blood.

Sounds like my turkey hen when she's setting. I had to wear a leather jacket and winter gloves to even feed her when she was sitting on her nest! I never did put up a video of that, did I? I took one, but I don't think I got it posted. She makes a MEAN little broody. Great mother, though.

Today my daughter was watching the chickens free range, and realized one had gotten into the neighbor's yard. I knocked on their door and asked if I could grab my hen out of their yard. He said, "Oh, that explains why I've been getting chocolate brown eggs for the last week". Oops. I guess it's been a few days since I've done a head count.

Why how nice of you to donate some lovely chocolate eggs to the neighbor

A few of my babies. Hey Gary, I am pretty sure that my blue I kept is a frizzle. What is yours looking like?


Love this little one..hope it's a girl. OE..someone put A on the egg..but that egg was an olive color! Real pretty.

What a doll! Love that face

Oh my goodness red..now we know why the gloves! She came right after you. I have some Seramas, thinking that when they go broody, it won't be quite as bad. Hoping..

I'm LOL at Betty. What a fierce mom!

 

[briansnarr]

Wow she's a good mommy. I'd be wearing protective gear too lol

Yeah, every day was a battle with her when she was on the eggs. I originally put her at the back of that carrier, since it has plenty of room, but the twerp kept moving her nest up near the door, so of course I was in her space every time I had to open it! Good grief. She'll still take a few jabs at me when roosting at night (her babies are still with her, and they're almost her size) but other than that, she's calmed down.

It was great to have Red here today helping me. I of course drug her out to visit the chickens. They were happy to see her as well
