I Broke Down and Got Chickens Today

[so lucky]

Pictures soon?

Yes, I will try. Right now, 4 look like chipmunks, 1 is pale yellow, and 3 are black. I noticed one in particular already chicken scratching at some of their food on the bottom of their brooder. So funny to see a chick that little, scratching like an old biddy.

I found this on line:

Prairie Bluebell Egger lays a novel blue egg but produces higher quality eggs than a pure Araucana. This breed was created by crossing Araucanas and White Leghorns, this creates a chicken that lays a large quantity of eggs that have blue shells. The Prairie Bluebell Egger is an active bird that is very good at foraging. They are lightweight and do not eat as much as larger breeds.

[Gardening with Rabbits]

Are you done with rabbits then?

I was done with rabbits day 1. I have just tried to give them a home and safe place. I did not get them for breeding or anything. The neighbors turned them loose. Actually, 3 different neighbors did this, started raising rabbits and would get rid of them except the last 1 or 2 and then turn them loose and they would come to my yard, so my husband caught them and built a hutch and we used the rabbit manure for the garden.

Bunny manure. That is the reason I rescued my fertilizer bunny.

So kind of you to give these helpless strays have a good life.
