YO GEORGIANS! :)

[valleychicks]

Is there a way to look up a particular person...I don't think they have visited Yo Georgians, but is somewhere on BYC.

If you know their user name you can put it in the search bar. I don't know how to look up someone using the actual name.

You can only search by user name. Us common folk don't go no access to real names.

Awe, got home from visiting my daughter in Washington and one of my Cuckoo Silkies is missing. The little boy. (At least it was the boy)

The amount of eggs I have been getting from our hens is down a bit now since I have two broody hens sitting on eggs for the New Years HAL. Seems quite a few of the girls want to be mamas too.

I had hoped putting the broody moms (hopefully) to be in their own nest box separate from the other nest boxes would work but...

I got one of these

from the Salvation Army store

and turned it into this



They plenty of room in there and seem to like it. I hope the eggs hatch and the chicks are ok. It's my first hatch ever so saying I'm a bit nervous is a big understatement.

Y'all may have already seen this but I found it interesting and thought I would share.

Beautiful birds! I just love beautiful roosters.

carcar, put a GAM proof lock on your coop.. (shouldn't be hard, she ain't real smart) We need another rooster like GAM needs another bonbon. When are you going to come over and kill some of them?

For your Brahma's, you turd monkey.

THAT IS SO GREAT!

For our Broody we put her in a small coop on her own, it worked well, specially after she had the chicks hatch, they had safe space of their own! Could you pen that nesting box in some place on it's own?

No, I didn't find the little Cuckoo Silkie. I guess he got out of the fenced yard and then the lady watching the chickens didn't notice he was missing. We were gone a week. Today while I was walking around the yard looking for him, I found a pile of broken eggs under my deck. They were obviously from the hen that always escapes. What bothered me was that apparently something was eating them. Maybe possum or raccoon, which means my little silkie could have been eaten by whatever was eating those eggs. Poor baby!
