    MJ's little flock

    He is very gorgeous! So far I love them, but they're still babies and not causing me trouble just yet 😅 It's been interesting getting to know them, they're somewhat friendly but far from brave. They come up to see me but spook so easily, I've only had them a short time though. I've not noticed...

    I've been pretty good ☺️ It's been a busy year as I've been studying. Flock's been good! Probably been a ton of changes since I last poked in here though. I'm a little over run with silkies these days 😅 I also recently added geese to my menagerie 🫣

    I've been absent from this thread for an awfully long time 😶 Hello everyone :frow I see some new chicky faces from my brief reading of the last couple pages!

    It is incredibly disappointing. The fact we now have this as apart of our country's history is so sad.

    All good :hugs Genetics, colours, and patterns are just plain confusing sometimes (most of the time...).

    I don't have any penciled chickens so I pulled that picture off the internet. Double laced (my barnies aren't the most shining example of lacing, sorry...) Penciled. And if you're like me and can tell they're different but still can't figure out why, here's a chart.

    I kinda only just learnt it 😅 I knew they were different but realised I didn't know how, even just looking at pictures it's hard to figure out.

    Laced is correct. Pencilling is like laced but has a row of colour on the outer edge of the feather (instead of black/blue).

    I didn't know they came from Shoalhaven zoo! I can kinda understand your hesitance about them going back there now, it's a really odd zoo.

    It's certainly cold here, and we had some rain today. I just want to stay inside where it's warm and dry, unfortunately that's not an option with animals to attend to 😅🥲

    This is kinda what I was thinking. If we can't afford more humanely produced eggs maybe we shouldn't be eating egg. Or at least not as much as we do. My pullets are slowly starting to lay and I am enjoying my fresh eggs :) It might reach a point where I am getting too many eggs and if I do I...

    I didn't make any comments about the surgery earlier :oops: I am glad it went well, I hope she continues to recover!

    Do you like the boxes? And do you think your barnevelders fit ok? I should probably get some nest boxes before mine all start laying to try and limit my egg hunting.

    I am always shocked by the size of her eggs 😅 I'll have a look for the photo comparing her egg to one of Elly's little ones.

    Maybe. My Samuel (crossbreed) lays darker Speckled eggs. Here's two, the first one was laid before the other one.

    I think it's her's too :love Barnevelders generally have darker coloured eggs.

    Yes to this! I work at a vet clinic so I get to see the behind the scenes, being a vet is extremely hard work. They work long hours and deal with many clients each day, and as your story shows not every case has a happy ending. I know I am truly grateful for my vets ❤️
