    I have an old dairy farm. We built separate larger pens where the cow stansions used to be. During hatching season we only let one pen free range at a time then when not hatching let them all loose together.

    With this warm weather this weekend I managed to finish cleaning all the chicken pens in the big barn and DH started the horse run in. Now all that's left is the turkey pen and upper bantam barn. My chickens are loving the weather. Egg production has been eggcellent the last few weeks. :)

    My original frizzle pullet came from Rancher, she was out if his buckwheat hen (a cuckoo maran X frenchy cross I believe). I crossed her with an OE (cuckoo maran X Ameraucana cross).

    I call my one cat a chicken friend. She tries to rub up against the chickens and purr like old pals. We rescued a litter of feral kittens a few years ago and once off bottle raised them in the barn with our chickens.

    Racher- I had a heated bowl for my bantams but i think my kids ran away with while playing. Now no one remembers a thing about it. I still have the one for my barn kitties and free rangers in the big barn though.

    I do have large fowl cochin but I don't show or know the standards. Some of my hens I feel would be closer to standard than others, not hatchery stock though. I could collect eggs if you're interested. They are BBS, with 1 blue frizzle hen and 1 blue mottled hen in the flock. The dominant roo is...

    Cochins, brahmas, and wyandottes have good personalities. I am not sure who would have show quality though.
