YO GEORGIANS! :)

how old are yours? 6 of mine are 9 weeks and the other 2 are 8 weeks old.

They've all been sleeping either piled up in the corner, or on the walk board up TO the roosts and nest boxes. I have found evidence of some of them sleeping in the nest boxes, so last night after dark I physically put them up on the roost.

Tonight after dark, I went out and 5 of the 14 were on the roost and all the rest were either on the walk up boards or packed in a nest. Even the australorps and leghorns. So tonight they ALL got put up on the roosts. I don't want to have to block off the nests, but if that happens again the next few nights I will.

Well, I got them at the Newnan show, at which point they were 1-2 weeks. I'll have to look back at when that was though.

Maybe 10-12 weeks old?

Why would anyone want the ones that came over on the Mayflower? No way they still lay eggs.

Robo or Gam- I've got a set ready for lockdown tomorrow and was wondering about the lockdown questions I posted earlier for yall. Peeping and a few rockers already so might just do it this evening instead of tomorrow. Also- anyone with experience putting a broody with her chicks back in the flock? She's been in the brood apt for 5 weeks, her chicks are 2 weeks old.

I'll go out with the camera today and try to get some better pics. The iphone doesn't zoom that well when you're trying to take a picture of chickens playing keep away. Not the best idea to try to take pictures of chickens right AFTER you take them treats.

we had a pool at our last house we owned, and our back yard was 'very' secluded. no neighbors within 1/4 mile on either side, couldn't be seen for the trees on the back......good times!

@CliffB Can you tell me the caramel colored chicks that TSC got in this year? Our TSC doesn't have a clue as to the breed.
