Chickens







It's been a while since I updated on the babiez. Though they aren't babiez any more! We still have them separated from Queen Biotch Survivor because she still picks on them. It will most likely be a few more months of that. I think once the little girls start laying, they will be able to fend for themselves against her. And it's usually between 4 and 6 months old when they start laying. They caught on very quickly to the "treats" routine. I give them bagged salads, the peels from any fruits or veggies. The tomatoes and strawberries that the birds so lovingly peck holes in. Bread. They actually act put out when I go out with nothing. Like the catz, they aren't spoiled. Much!


The two black ones toward the rear are Penguin and Joker. They will lay brown-shelled eggs. The yellow one and the one right next to her are Tweety and Sylvester. They will lay green-shelled eggs. Miss Independance off all by herself and the one to the right of Syl are Cocoa and Kiss. They will lay chocolate brown-shelled eggs. They are enjoying watermelon rinds! They eat all the way down to the green.
