i’m giving the side eye to my remaining spitz, whose tail feathers are looking a bit....roostery.

Hi! I’m new to the breed and was very excited when I found these at a local ranch store! Here are mine. They will be 2 weeks tomorrow.

Flugel met a rabbit....and decided he was not a foe.

He also reprimanded Fritz (#2) for harassing a hen. #2 was then afraid to come in for the night. I was thinking, that's it, Fritz has to go. But Flugel went out to him and gently guided him in without further ado. He seems to want his brother to stay w the flock, I guess. He takes his responsibilities seriously. it's a lot of work! Fritz is like a drunken sailor ashore. Flugel gets him back to the ship.....

It was a HOT one today! (about 95'F) Hard to believe it snowed last month....

The Spitz & Dom were fine, but the poor Orps were not happy.

This orp & dom are BFFs. The dom wanted to play, but the orp just wanted to lay around.

.... and here's Poof-Poof! Take a close look at her unusual comb. She has 2 sets of Vs (front & back) Has anyone seen this before?

one of my Cocks has an extra something at the front.

A bunch of face shots for you.

I don't think any of mine have an extra V, but I have never looked super closely for that.
