What's in your flock?

OH MAN! It's supposed to look like that? I guess they are a warm climate bird.

Definitely not boring. I miss having naked necks around. They were always so comical.

Sad news. I lost Brownie, my black sex-link hen today. I have no idea what happened. She looked fine last evening when I fed them treats and locked the door. For some reason she died overnight and was cold and stiff when I checked the coop to let everyone out for the day. Sigh!

Awww, so sorry Red.

Today was hatch day for the latest batch. It was very busy for me, there was a lot of shrink wrapped chicks, I was elbow deep in assisting hatching chicks solid from 8 to about 3, then intermittent until about 8. I have 14 in the brooder, 6 still in icu, but most are rallying, 10 didn't make it. Chicks and I are to tired for pics tonight though.

 

[Wishin']

Sorry so many didn't make it.

Happy for you getting new chicks, but sad that there were problems. I would say that Dr. Kassaundra did a great job yesterday.

Red, so sorry about your hen. Kassaundra sorry you had a tough time with the hatch. We enjoy our chickens so much, it is hard when things go wrong.
