LGBTQ+ Poultry Keepers

They'll be destroyed by the deer unfortunately. I've found a few places saying that they can do well in pots though, so I might get some totes for them since these ones aren't the super tiny varieties I think

Awww. Yeah, critters love hosta. They should do fine in a large planter. Pretty sure they'll need winter protection though if you go this route. Heck, you could just bury them before the ground freezes then pot them up again in the Spring.

I had a Black Australorp hen that did this all time. She bit me, tidbitted for me, even flogged me. Vicious hen!

I've been doing a lot of work in the duck pen today, I'm shattered.
I dug several worms, I'm pleased to report. They were a perfect peace offering for my girls (I was wearing absolutely TERRIFYING gloves, and had to earn their forgiveness).

Sprightly was in such a fright, I'm convinced she was thinking that I had demons trying to eat my hands off. Any time I went near her or gestured in her direction she'd speed away yelling at me- "keep those monsters away from me!! Don't touch me! Agh!!"

They were a *little* less scary when presenting delicious earthworms.

I'll probably stick them in the basement for winter (stays between 40 and 55F usually) if I keep them. Can they have a lid on if I do that, or do they still need light/airflow when sleeping?

Does she have babies? I had a surprise last night, bent down to see why a hen was where she was and she about hit my face because I was apparently trying to hurt her babies.


So.... yeah. I got babies.... yay

If you need to get rid of them, I’m open

A, too far away anyways and B, Mareks. Chickens that come to /hatch on the property don't leave

Well, I wasn't getting notifications today apparently!

Good news though! I finally got my first customer for ordering chicks! We're just trying to figure out pickup logistics now lol. (Oh how I love scheduling...)
