So glad you came to check-in! Sorry to hear of your divorce... looks like my divorce was around the same time. Glad to hear you kept your flock, remarried, and all is well... even with the mink attack. Those are a predator I'm glad I don't have to deal with!!! Glad you gave your brother the...

Thanks for stopping by and sharing those great pics! It sounds like quite the adventure with your feathered friends! Sorry to hear about the disappearance of your previous flock... that's heart-breaking. Ya, that might be a tricky spot for a flock, but maybe a few hens would be ok. Keep us...

Wow... 60?!?! That's a fantastically huge flock! Yup, sounds like a busy and bustling farm! I love the idea of rotational grazing. I've been wanting to setup a chicken tractor to move my small flock around for weed abatement. How are your chickens and other animals getting along?

Aww, thanks for the nice comments on our wonderful community! It's great to hear that you're getting back into the swing of things and adding more chicks to your flock! Wishing you all the best as you continue to nurture your "farmette"! :D

Hey there! It's great to see you back, and thanks for sharing the pics! Ya, sounds like you have your hands full with homesteading, work, and family! Feel free to share more about your adventures anytime!

Classroom chicks is how this site started!!! I hope the little one with the leg issue gets the help it needs. Keep us posted with info and pics of your large flock of 25 chickens!

Hello! It's great to hear from you, and I'm sorry to hear about your RIR. :( Hopefully it's not something that will impact any other chickens!

Is that a city requirement? I don't know that I've heard of that before... mostly just requiring they be kept to one's own yard. How are you keeping them inside the fencing? Ours are escape artists. LOL!

Well, that's a pretty awesome update. Any pics?

Something about mountain living always sounds appealing to me... but then I think I'd miss my Amazon 2-day deliveries. LOL! Congrats on growing your flock... but ya, tricky managing a bunch of roosters. At least partially earning their keep by protecting the rest of the girls! Thanks for...

Moving + giving away your birds must have been tough.. that's a lot of change! Glad to know you’re considering getting more in a few years... definitely keep us posted when you do!

Thanks for the update! I'm happy to hear your chickens are doing well... especially considering years dealing with the foxes! Ya, another really challenging predator! Six eggs a day from your mix sounds just about perfect to me! Your Production Red rooster... wow, 13 pounds! Keep us posted...

So sorry to hear about your chicken troubles. :( I've heard weasels are really terrible to protect against. We have coons in our area and they are THE-WORST... but I'm wondering if weasels are even more problematic? Maybe one day, you’ll have the time and space to get back into raising...

Thanks for the nice words, glad you have you back! Wow, it sounds like you’ve got quite the lively bunch over there! Ya, we've dealt with the pros/cons of free-ranging flock vs. protecting garden, porch (from poop) etc. The trampoline chicken trailer idea is super creative! We'd LOVE to see...

Look at all those fuzzy-butts! LOL! Great to hear from you. Please do keep us posted as your flock grows :)

Yes, I'm curious too!

Great pic... definitely quite the setup!!!

That does sound busy... and AWESOME!!! Congrats on all the exciting new additions! Please keep us posted with updates and pics as your garden and family grows!
