I would have snagged some for my nieace if you had velocity facial clenser ect. She is pimpleing out a little now that she is almost 13 and if I remmber that stuff works wonders on mild acne issues .
 
Friday was a tough day. We were heading out to go camping with family and decided to do our chicken chores later in the day so that our chicken sitter could come later the next day. We discovered that something had gotten into our Orp pen. It killed my main blue roo inside the coop and ate part of him there, killed my beautiful blue hen and left her by the exit route they took over my 6' fence and took 1 black hen and 1 blue Jersey Giant hen over the fence and across the field. I think they tried to pull the blue hen over the fence, but she was too heavy. Fence was topped with netting, but they pulled up a corner to get in and out. I'm guessing either raccoons or more than likely the pesky Fisher that lives around here. I think it may have happened during the day because they were in their run. I'm not sure raccoons are strong enough to climb a 6' fence with a very very large bird (but maybe)- but Fishers are most certainly strong enough. I DO NOT want to meet a Fisher face to face; mean, mean little suckers that they are, My Orps are my favorite! These were SQ from Washington and were just beautiful and very large and very sweet. I have 1 black roo and 1 black hen left along with a blue JG hen. My youngest was very sad because the JGs were a birthday present for her last year. We've set a live trap and have not caught anything thing yet but will keep trying. We are also trying to reinforce the pen top. I do have 2 LO from corancher and 1 LO from BHep that are growing up and a small blue orp or 2 from crazypetlady- so they are a good consolation for the others' loss. My DH was even sad and he doesn't like the chickens.

Sometimes life just stinks!

The good things still outweigh the sucky things! We had great weekend camping with family

Sorry to hear that.
I have some Blue/Black Jersey Giants if you want some eggs. I have a black trio plus a splash hen. I hatched out some EEs from the splash hen and an EE roo while i was waiting for the blacks to grow up,, i kept 2 hens (both blue), they are as big as the other hens, and theyre about 5 months old. Hoping they lay soon
