Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

Is there anything as cute as a baby duck!
Someday...

I pretty much just want to cuddle them. I can't wait to get home from work to watch and hold them.

I think this is another good reason I'm glad I use sand.

But in nest boxes too ?

Here are my two new kids. We got a new cockerel last weekend. He's 8 weeks old but should grow up to be a beauty. The black pullet is a rumpless BCM olive egger. Despite being advised against rescuing chickens, she was a rescue. She has a bad leg but is getting better and is learning how to walk/run again. She does not know she's a chicken. Every evening she comes up to the back door and walks into the house so she can sleep in her cage in the family room. Very sweet girl, but I hope she learns to socialize with the other pullets soon.

They are very pretty. And I'm sure you'll be glad of a hen that is super friendly. Until she constantly flies up on you when you bend over. I have a couple like that.

You need more cockerels?

I have a bit to go before these boys are big enough to eat. They are such greedy guts, though.

I have Thai's here who would LOVE some Black Cheeekin !

They swear black cheekin soup fixes every ill there is, including if your son needs a wife.......................

OK maybe they are Cambodian...

So I've decided that I'll be taking the five EE pullets to the swap next month. They'll be 4 months old then. I just have to many chickens and need to reduce it down some.

Too Many ?

I need to sell off about 100~~~~
Me stupido !

Hello,

I recently joined BYC, but have been lurking on and off for over a year planing out my jump into raising chickens. I am in Washougal, WA. My 7 chicks are now 7 and 8 weeks old, (one turned out to be a Cockrell). I have 2 Barred Rock's, 2 Golden Laced Wyondottes, 2 Marans and a Light Brahma.





Just finished the coop a couple weeks ago and got the chicks in their new home and they seem happy.





I have found so much good information on this site, I don't know how I could have built the coop with out all the good ideas I found here, so Thanks!

Man oh man what an absolutely gorgeous place you have !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 But in nest boxes too ?

Yes in the nest box, too, along with DE and lavender and then topped with some straw. I use quite a bit of lavender and my coop smells lovely!
