They're laying pretty well right now, but it was a pretty barren winter. I had a Golden Comet who never laid an egg. We had to put her down because she was egg bound and very sickly. Poor Goldie. <br /><br />I wanted to name two of my Rhodies Thelma and Louise, but the grandkids vetoed it. I ended up naming one of my EEs Louise, though.<br /><br />My favorite breeds of the ones I have are Rhode Island Reds and the Buff Orps. Namely because they don't get poopy-butts. Their butt feathers always look pristine. <br /><br />I've been having a tough time staying away from the chicks at Tractor Supply this spring. :)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201860227400017841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6690745083870672507.post-68497010060348315812011-04-10T11:07:45.564-07:002011-04-10T11:07:45.564-07:00Alisa, Thanks for stopping by!

Not sure if you ever saw the original blog post I did about it.

I miss having chickens, they were so fun (until Mr. Fox came for a visit). Maybe when we get a house here in France we'll get some more.Our Juicy Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01837321365147180741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6690745083870672507.post-29007904784933336332011-04-10T01:35:25.986-07:002011-04-10T01:35:25.986-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Bruce Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11608705993987319356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6690745083870672507.post-5178614003756406132011-04-07T22:31:44.591-07:002011-04-07T22:31:44.591-07:00Jayme, Thank you!

Let me just say Wynonna was thrown up in the air a lot during the shoot. She seems to have forgiven me now.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15199328139152042955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6690745083870672507.post-91048354369952185102011-04-07T17:34:30.679-07:002011-04-07T17:34:30.679-07:00happygirl, whoa, slow down girl.

No worries, your questions will be answered in due time. ;-) <br /><br />Don't run out and buy any chickens just yet. You can learn from my mistakes and be much better off.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15199328139152042955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6690745083870672507.post-43404675345017940782011-04-07T16:59:09.114-07:002011-04-07T16:59:09.114-07:00Wow, what a cool flying chicken picture!

Do you have ...I think your chickens are wonderful. Do you have a coop? Do they stay outside all winter? Here in the mid-Atlantic, we can have cold, snowy winters. Can they survive? What about predators? Do you have any where you live? We have loose dogs, cats and even the stray fox around here. See, I have LOTS of questions. I'm thinking I'd like to buy my chickens at the fair, all grown, instead of raising from chicks. I just need to know what I need and how to do it.
