My ees and ameraucana like to fly. The pest of a silkie rooster is actually pretty decent for a silkie. He's good at getting on all the roosts.

I have the one we call Mud that roosts all by herself she is of the first two have to take a photo for you all the 9 marans and three silky in the corner but all four are laying again at least for now

One of the 3 week old chicks squeezed out of their little outside pen. It couldn't figure out how to squeeze back in so I grabbed it. It yelled and suddenly all 4 hens in that pen furiously threw themselves at the fence to kill me. Mind you, only 2 of those hens are raising the chicks.

So 8 pounds of fluff were out for blood. It would be scary if only it didn't take all 4 of them to make the weight of 1 large fowl hen.

That’s pretty funny kind of hard to take them seriously till they peck and scratch you. That’s some strong instinct, I had a surprise in my barn a Swedish flower hen popped out with one chick she had only been around a cream Legbar Roo it’s a cute little chick. The hen made some charges at me but never followed through.
