Bye Bye Birdie

Well the chicks are growing up. We got all 3 of them in April so we could add them to our 3 grown chickens for more eggs. We bought them at Cenex - they said they were all hens. Well 2 out of the 3 are roosters :( I do love their crowing every morning though - it is a nice wake up call. But one of them became too mean to the other rooster although still nice to us. Luckily we found him a new home a couple days ago where he won't be meat. This is him riding in the front seat of the car. We were a bit embarrassed at the stop lights - hoping people would hear his "bocking" and see our big rooster up there. Marissa named him "Turkey" because she really thought he was going to be a turkey since he was so much bigger than the other chicks.

Bye Bye Turkey
Rooster and Tinka also know as Mrs. Elvis - They are 4 months old now

R.I.P. Lily


One of our other favorite white chickens from last year "Lily" got taken by a coyote out of our front yard in the middle of the day a week or so ago. We were sad because she was so nice.
