Coming to 2 years with birds. I've incubated a clutch of 5 with Silkie genes, and they were all killed one night by a weasel at 8 wks, while at the same time, a new clutch of 13 hatched. 9 hens 1 roo in one run. 5 roos by themselves, and 2 egg eaters sequestered and fertilizing a flower bed for a couple more weeks before they find their way to the pot. All in all, these homestead companions continue to teach me every day and I'm most grateful to be here with them all day.We have such a vibrant community here at BYC... tons of active friendly members. Of course, life gets busy, so I was thinking it would be fun to start a thread welcoming some of our peeps we haven't heard from in a while.
If that's you, come say hello and let us know what you've been up to.
(if that's not you, feel free to invite peeps you haven't seen in a while and say hi to those that post here)
Beautiful photo @TravisOfCA!One of our hens was happy to scrounge for bugs as I was shoveling compost. I also gave her a couple of mice who happened to be disturbed from their compost home...never knew they would just swallow small ones whole!
Photo?I raised my late rooster, Batman, by myself. Yesterday he became a dad.
