What did you do with your flock today?

[Gammas Bearded Babies]

So the 2 buff boys have been going at it...their necks so long they look like giraffes going round and round with their necks only lol.
But every now and then one of them pecks at Joey and I was blown away...he's the senior in there! But he is molting his year molt and looks rough in the tail feathers! He's down to 1 that is hanging on forever seems like and so many pin needles!
Joey took off after Hank and caught him and held him down. Similarly to what Joey did with Coco that time. Made me think he was trying to mate him but just holding em down. Hank definitely submitted even sat frozen after I got Joey off him.
I gotta get this addition done!
N the person coming to see Joey didn't show of course.

Are you rehoming Joey?
Yeah, space solves many chicken issues.

Happy Monday all!
This morning the skies were semi clear and we were able to pick up our hay. Big load off of the head.

Good quick unload. Ginger Mint looks pretty happy about the restock too.

Back to n the sewing table. Another friend sent me some beautiful bags and I finished one along with a few of the regulars

Got a surprise package! Now who could this be from?!! 🏜

Most exciting! can't wait to find a home for those beautiful flowers- have a pretty good idea where they are going- and can't wait to start putting some of those awesome bags together! Just terrific!!! 🏵🏵🏵

Princess Jellybeans seems 100% . Joy, another pullet was a little down last eve so tossed 600mgs of calcium down her throat. That super cool oyster shell canister is emptying out again but now I am starting to wonder about it... probably nothing. Spring and too much snacks. Afternoon snack time got canceled, Spider is sad.
My little charmer Beetlejuice surrounded by some ladies.

They lub him
Well, I better go check the hay bales for eggs.

O so cute . Love the one little chick looking at the frog...trying to decide if babies asking "are you my mom" or "can I eat you" . Adorable though!

Yes! It’s so adorable!! I love how curious they are!

Welcome to the thread! And such gorgeous colors!

Yes! Thank you! Today I fed them spinach! It’s the first time they’d eat anything besides chick feed!

I have had some pretty sleepless nights lately so I’m sorry for not being on here and not knowing what is all going on with you all. I do want to give an update. I was able to hatch my friend 7 ducklings. 3 Black Bibbed, 2 Blue Bibbed, 2 Silver Appleyards. One of the Blue Bibbed has amazing coloring. It’s not ideal but she is just the cutest. I have dubbed myself Auntie.

I managed to hatch all 5 of my call babies. I have more going in lockdown, along with hers in 2 days. I was also able to hatch 5 Cemani’s but one passed away. I hatched one that looks like a Maran but I know she isn’t because of the egg. So her daddy has to be the Cochin because she has feathered feet and only my Cochins, Maran, and Russians have feathered feet. I also managed to hatch a pure Pavlovskaya (Russian) baby. And one cute will Cochin. More are in lockdown of the chicks and should start hatching in the next day or so.

I hope everyone and their chickens are doing great! I will try to catch up as best as I can.

I’m sorry! I had really high hopes for Joey. I hope you can get the addition done soon!
