Awww I love the pictures! I am so sad I had to work. BOOO! And someone had goslings...... I'd have been hooked and reeled in, for sure.

Silly, you only stayed up for an hour? ;) Hehehe.

Sundance, congrats on the contest! Darkness looks very content in your arms.

Brian, it was great to meet you! I hope those eggs yield a good hatch for you. Which hen is broody?

Pan, you're always welcome here, regardless of ownership status.

my broody hen is my BLRW. My salmon faverolle I think is trying to go broody too. So we will see. Thanks again!
 
well, day 2 building the coop (YAY!) all with materials that we had on hand from building our shed (so far) (4x4 base and 6 ft tall in the back, 7 ft in the front, with 3 ft underneath). Probably over did it on the height, but oh well!


Also, with this silkie, can anyone explain why it would be getting brown feathers around the neck?

Thats interesting! Im surprised myself lol. The mother was a pure black silkie, and the father was a buff silkie but had the larger comb/waddles that they arent suppose to have, but still looked nice. Im stumped why she's getting brown feathers, thats weird. I bet it'll look pretty though :) She was super dark as a baby, and still is apart from those brown ones coming in lol.

He/she is the sweetest baby ever. I was trying to take pictures, and it would waddle over to me as fast as it could, WANTING me to hold it.


Cute baby! I'm totally outing myself here, but I've always been a bit afraid of geese. Growing up our neighbor had geese and they would chase the neighborhood kids around and bite us. We used to call each other and see if they knew where they were so we'd know if it was safe to go outside or not!

Did they just have naughty geese? Are they usually nice, sweet birds?[/QUOTE]

geese can be nasty as adults especially to strangers. They are wonderful watchbirds
 
I lost one of my 6-7 week old Ameracaunas today. Not sure what happened. Do bluejays like chickens? I've seen a couple of them around. No pile of feathers or blood around in the run. I can't figure out what happened.

Baby fuzz and>>> big bird pin feathers will be coming in now.
 
Give it time to heal amd keep it away from bad chickie


Oh, it's been a while since that cooled down. But she still hasn't opened her eye, I fear she won't. No more danger of picking, though. Just never had a chiken who was blind on one side, especially this young. I did have an old blind one once, though!
