Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

[pennyJo1960]

Hey there @JDS98922 welcome to the Washington thread I am down here but small town life agrees and no nasty snakes here

Welcome!

You'll find there is never enough room for chickens.

I'm up to 5 silkie pens, a large fowl pen, and a brooder pen.

Okey Dokey.

Took me a bit but I found the Washington State thread! Had chickens as a kid. Thought about it for a year or 2 and finally took the leap this year. I ordered 12 chickens online from Mypetchicken. And here we are, almost 2 months later, with 12 chickens=11 hens and 1 roo, 9 different breeds, a rapidly shrinking "brooder", and a close to finished hen house. (I am still tweaking bits and pieces trying to achieve the elusive "good ventilation but no drafts").

This weekend is hopefully the move-in date for the chicks to the "Big House".

It has definitely been interesting.

Hello and welcome. Where are you? I am down here in South Eastern Washington.

[pennyJo1960]

[mixedbreeds]

No rain here either can’t remember when it rained last hear quite a while. Kittens are doing well it’s hatd to get Dexter the former bad kitten to play but he does every once in a while, I can at least pick him up now and pet him. The other male is snickers, the two females are Mable and Glades. They made me name the two females when I went to the vet. I have one BCM’s broody that has at least 4 chicks this morning.
