Brooding for More

 This past week I've moved the chicken coop to the west side of the house and expanded the size of the coop. I'll post pictures soon, but wanted to quickly share the 4 newest members we've added to the brood. Two of these chicks are Frizzle Chochan Bantams. They'll resemble fluffy boa's once fully grown.




Unfortunately, this little fella (I'm hoping it's a hen) had to be separated from the group, as she's the largest and a complete bully. Everytime I allow her to join the other's, she pecks them constantly in the face. I'm concerned she's going to hurt the tiny Frizzles.

  1. Hi Helen Ruth. Nice to hear from you. The article is in the April edition, on the shelves now. It has been fun. When I have a minute I must check your blog and add it to my new feed. I'm wondering if you went to Israel last year. I remember you were planning a return trip. We went to England instead of the trip to Egypt Jordan and Israel. Don't know when we will ever get to go now with all the unrest.
