So take a wild guess who has been accepted as a Freshman at Columbus State University. A mere 25 years after graduating high school, too. lol
will see what I can do, I didn't get any blue eggs today. One of the ones that was laying is the one who went broody, so there's only one other one laying right now. Don't know why the other two are being suck slackers.........Papa, when you come Monday, could I get you to bring a couple of AM eggs? I could put them in my mini bator!![]()
on another note, someone has beat the crap out of one of my crossbreed hens. Not sure if it was the rooster or one (or more) of the other hens, but I noticed her head looking like this earlier this afternoon but couldn't catch her to check her over until they went on the roost. She wasn't roosting with the others, they were all on the roost except broody momma who's in the nest, and she was on top of the metal can I store stuff in. I picked her up from there and brought her inside where we cleaned her up and put some neosporin on her head, she was cut right over the left eye, apparently it was bad.
I wonder if broody did it, reason I say is I put a few pieces of tomato in the nest for her today, this crossbreed is always the first to run to me when I bring out food and was in the coop when I put the tomato in the nest. I wonder if she tried to get it and momma pecked at her to keep her from doing so.....
.
when I took her back, I put her on the roost, didn't appear there would be any problems, but I'm intending to go check again before we go to bed to see if she's still there or not. It could have been the rooster I guess, but I don't think this is the low girl in the pecking order.....

No, but we had to go thru on our way to Helen and then Dawsonville.Is anyone going to Jeep Fest this weekend?
Just wanted to say HI! I'm not technically Georgia, but I'm only 5 minutes from the GA/SC border. I was raised in Evans, GA and hubby and I moved over the state line when the children started school. I work in downtown Augusta, so I think I belong to both states. I'm new to chickens, but have raised other birds in the past (lovebirds, cockatiels, parrots). We have 3 new girls (I hope they are all girls) that are only 8 weeks old.
