I've been pretty busy lately, leaving little time to introduce my 23 (soon to be 30 ) additions to the flock! 12 EEs, 2 Welsummers, 2 Call ducks, and 7 bantams, which are almost 6 and 5 weeks old. Very few have names, since we only now are starting to figure out genders. Welsummer cockerel...

Here are a few recent shots of my babies! Rose (Cream Legbar) enjoying a little relaxation time under the pine tree. Elle McFeatherson (Olive Egger) is quite the poser! I thought Cassie (Appenzeller Spitzhauben) almost looked feral out in the soybean field. She's a pretty girl and she...
