Mother & daughter are both lovely- I love the color they have in their tails, especially the Wheaten pullet.

they seem to take the best ones. it's like they got an SOP book programmed into their minds or somethingMr. Hawk came visiting today. I lost a beautiful black hen. Now, I have 2 black hens left, two blues and 2 splash along with two beautiful blue roos to begin my breeding program. I know that is enough for my needs, but it kills me when I lose one. I also had intended to use two of the blacks with my lavender roo, but looks like he will only have the lavender hen and one black. I despise hawks, period.
if you sell eggs let me know! i have a hen and a cockerel but the darn cockerel has bantam in his background and I really don't like banties. I would really like to infuse more LF into them.

So sorry about the hawk. It is just terrible when you lose a sweet chicken. Ours are not happy right now because they were getting picked off one by one and so we've finally had to shut them in the run. We try to give them some free time before set when we can be out there to chaperone, but in winter there's only so long you can stay outside. Good luck - maybe yours won't be too persistent!
Quote: Thank goodness we are far enough off the road that we don't get a lot of dog traffic. I have never been bothered by a neighbor's dog, but we had one that did not like chickens or cats. We lost him last fall at the ripe old age of 16. Hawks have been my major problem. I like for them to free range, but when I get one attack, there always seems to be several more as they are an easy meal. My house is further up the mountain so it is difficult for me to keep watch.
