Back from Vacay.


We went to Hawaii for a week. Came home to GIANT BIRDS!!! There's Helena on the left. She has sprouted a mohawk; looks really different than "Baby Helena." On the right is Queenie, the cochin.

Hittin' the one month mark.


The "kids" are four weeks old, today. They are out in the coop and enjoying their 30' x 14' run. We are down to 28 chicks. It appears that the hawks knew that we planned to put up our netting Sunday, so they came "for lunch" on Saturday. We lost one chick.On a positive note: We lucked out with our Turken, Elvira. She is responding well to antibiotics and healing from her injuries.
