chickens! [View all]

my homemade brooder-


big plastic bin and a blanket. heated with a crock pot inside another pot, and a light.


4 buff orphingtons, 2 silver barred, 2 wyandotts, hopefully both gold, but doesn't matter.



got a couple easter eggers and a couple cuckoo marans on order. starting with a dozen while i figure everything out, but think i will get more once we are a little more settled.


doing the happy chicken dance.
