How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

I would love to see a pic of you bantam - those chooks are gorgeous

Here are my 4 bantam.
Japanese black feather and Pekin black feather hens - both less than a year old.
9 weeks old Molted colour Japanese pullet
12 weeks old Pekin pullet black feather
The 2 Japanese bantam make loud high pitch sound, very vocal.
The 2 Pekin chickens make quiet sweet voice like talking. I love the artichoke flowers they wear at the end of their body.
It is not possible to take picture of them together because the older 2 hens peck at the 2 pullets.
The Japanese bantam hen is broody at the moment. The Pekin hen is laying egg, the 2 pullets still along way to go. In the mean time they just enjoy their duty free life.

Those tail feathers do look like artichoke blossoms, how pretty and unusual! And your white mottled Japanese hen , oops, pullet is lovely.

Thanks for the feedback about sardines. I ordered some in water and no salt. It's cheaper than the salmon!

The bones in sardines are small and pretty mushy if I remember correctly... are those okay for chickens to eat?

I give mine canned sardines and its perfectly fine, they love it. But not sure if you're talking about canned or not!

No eggs since I last updated.
Well, from the chickens at least. I do have ducks and get 3 like every single day.

Our first egg since April, 2024! Our Buff Orpington laid her first egg this morning. She is approximately 9 months old. She was acting very strange and restless and vocal since she emerged. I decided to let her out to forage (usual) and she was running all around looking for a place behind shrubs and plants and still vocalizing. I decided maybe she was trying to lay since she's been squatting for 12 days. I carried her to the coop and put her in the coop nest and told her "this is where you lay your egg" and closed the door. After an hour I got concerned and decided to check on her. She is broody. I took the egg from under her and forced her to exit the coop. Here is the beauty. It is a very pale shade of beige.
