New chicken home

Morning everyone, 

So today I got a pic of the chickens in their new pen until the end of summer, this fall the new shed will be done then a new pic of it altogether. 

They are getting bigger but still only half grown. But they are much happier now in larger pen. 

Love and Prayers

Chickens and Pen

Morning to all, 

We are going to attempt to put up our chicken pen today, got the stuff yesterday. It will keep the chickens until the shed gets here this fall. At least the chickens will know the surroundings as home. We also get the yard fenced this week, so they can at least then be able to free-range for real. They are growing so fast, need more room for them. 

Pics will follow when we get them all settled in. Of course, we will have to add chicken wire around the pen and top and then add sunshade cover and perch for them to get upon. 

Love and Prayers, 

Margo

Vince back home

Morning all, 

Just a note to say my Vince is back home, sore and a little stiff, but he is doing just fine. He will be slow to get going back to what he was doing but at least he is working on it and doing just fine. 

Got to say it is easier to get the chickens in and out with a little help 😍

Love and Prayers,

Chickens and Vince

Morning everyone, 

Put the chickens out this morning by myself, as I took Vince to Clarksburg for drop off, he will catch the bus to PA for surgery tomorrow, prayers please for him.  His adrenal gland that sits on top of the kidney has to be removed. It has an odd growth on it. 

Our chickens are growing fast but we still bring them in at night. They are getting so large now, heavy also, which makes it easier for the two of us to lift the cage at a time. But, by myself, I have to halfway drop it to the floor then drag it out and transfer chickens to the outside pen. Will have to drag them just inside the garage for the night. Our shed and wire cage for them will not be done until this late summer, what a mess. 

Love and Prayers, 

Margo

Turtle Day

Morning everyone, 

 We found in our yard the other day while weed whacking on the hill, a lovely turtle. I think it is called an Eastern Ornate Box Turtle. We put him back where we found him after some pics of course. 

Nice to know that they are still around and healthy. At least this one is. My sis found the top of a shell a number of years ago in the yard here while mowing. It looked to be the same kind of shell. 

 Love and Prayers

Little Blacky

Morning to all, 

Oh wow, one of my chickens, the black one seems to have "frizzle" feathers, None of the other chickens has this, only the black one and I am wondering what it will look like when as it gets older and larger. She is a very Unique looking chicken. Now it is cold outside and two days of rain, they are being kept inside right now in the garage for their safety.

 I will take a pic when I can get her alone. 

Love and Prayers,  

Margo

Rainy Day

Morning to all, 

Today and last night it has decided to rain, got grass cut yesterday so it is a good day for rain. 

Got some more unpacking to do, so this is a good day to take care of that. 

Hope all are doing ok.

Love and Prayers, 

Margo

My Chickens

Morning everyone, 

Here is a pic after morning clean-up for my baby chickens. 

If the weather would ever warm up, they are ready for the outdoors, but back inside for the nighttime for a while. I can hardly wait to see what they will look like when older.

Have you hugged your chickens today?🐔🐓🐤🐣

Love and Prayers, 

Margo
