Plus I can never eat store bought chicken after my sweet baby Eleanor passed away, and the miserable life that Cornish crosses are forced to endureI just want a chicken that had a normal life and got to forage outdoors daily, which is why I’ll be raising my own for meat.
I like looking at pretty chicken pics online, but I'm pretty happy with my Easter Egger girls at home. This is Blue, technically an olive egger, and a show-off. She came in the house yesterday for beauty pics now that her feathers are back in after molting. She's a bit over 8 pounds now, and the boss. She even took down a giant rat a few weeks ago that dared to get in their coop when it was freezing cold for over a week here.

and the Phoenix rises from the ashes...the forecast for my Cackle trip has already changed to a morning low of 41 and a high of 46. We shall see. I am open to whatever will be. I can't say I haven't gone thru many what-was-I-thinking-ordering-more-chickens moments....Okay so no conclusions yet.... we'll know next week and I'll report back.It’s a real live Phoenix! I thought for a second there your post read “forecast has added ice cream for my trip” I want ice cream now!
