As Pup posted we lost another 2 chickens this weekend. First thought it was Havoc. After finding one of them torn up in the woods we now think it was something else. Raccoon or maybe a fox. Pup is furious and frustrated with losing more.
We went today and picked up two more Roosters a guy down the road was giving away. His were Americaunas like ours and they look to be just a week or two older than ours. He even got them at the same place we did. After looking at the ones he was calling Roosters I'm wondering if more of ours are Roosters than I thought! LOL He either gave us another hen or we have several Roosters. Only time will tell. I'm completely confused.
This is one of the Roos we got from him. This is definitely a Roo! He even crows already! He is not an Americauna though...I think he looks more like a Black Copper Maran.
He is a big beautiful Roo.
The hens seem pretty infatuated with the new stud in the coop. Is she giving him a kiss??
Pup is out working on the tractors and trying to make them more secure. Wish us luck! I fed them some grapes that were getting a little old and some old hot dog buns. They seem to enjoy them.
This is the other new one. The man says this is a Rooster. What do y'all think?
So far all the other hens are picking on it. Typical of the girls not liking the new girl in town! So I personally think it is a hen.
We shall see, I guess.
They are not picking on the Rooster!
We had a great weekend with good friends. My daughter's birthday is tomorrow. I wish she was here so we could celebrate it but I hope she has an amazing one in Texas with Joe and the kids. Happy Birthday Lauren! Love you!
ARRRGGHHHH! It WAS Havoc who killed the two chickens Friday night. Pup caught him in the act of trying to bust in the new reinforced tractor.
