Christmas For The Chickens

The flock has had a wonderful Christmas, lots of bread, corn and treats. I've got two broodies now, the Light Sussex (Fresno) and the White Silkie (Iddy).This week has been great, I won a $25 giftcard to petco and 6+ SHOW QUALITY SILKIE BANTAM EGGS and I got an HD Kindle Fire! More updates soon...

Pet Sitting a Lovebird

I'm allowed to keep this little bird if I want to, but for now I'm just caring for him. Merry Christmas!

Lavender Pullet Went Cockerel - Iddy Went Broody & More!

Pullet Went Cockerel:

What a sad day...my pullet went cockerel, but I had been suspecting it. Now he got his sickle feathers to confirm that he's a boy (they're highlighted above) but is was still lovely weather since it barely rains in Southern Utah.



Iddy is Broody!
She is adorable, we'll have to order some hatching eggs for her and bring her inside so she can raise her chicks.


Roosting Chickens:
A loner on the roost, the Coronation Sussex.




Happy Holidays, until Next Time!

Ava is looking much better after a molt, and without her little chick.


Starburst looked pretty today too.


One of my Lavender Ameraucanas turned into a cockerel...but at least they are friendly.


Wheathin was as pretty as ever :)






The Big Cornish was camera friendly!
