Ooooh, shiny new thread! VS, what's the fire situation? Unlike certain other posters, I do NOT want you to have to bring your chickens inside because I care about your sanity and the welfare of your dining room furniture >_> (No, really, if they have to come in I will engage in schadenfreude like the rest of us, and giggle, and be glad that you are such a considerate chicken-owner as to let us all watch your misadventures)

More importantly, what would the chickens think of an Emu?

Meanwhile the East Coast is warmer and drier than it's been in years. I tried to let the girls out after I got home tonight at 4:30... they were already roosted and didn't want to come out. Silly birds and their early bedtime! They'll probably be up and bored at 6am. I hope the weather calms down for you, VS!

Velvet Sparrow posted:By the way, we talked the other night and have decided that this year's Chickam hatch will be done the old-fashioned way...with a hen! This will make it a bit different as you won't be able the actually SEE the chicks emerge from the shells (mama stays clamped down pretty tightly) but on the plus side, you'll be able to see how a mama hen handles hatching chicks...and watching a broody hen mother chicks is sweet enough to nearly kill you. We plan on setting no more than a mixed variety of 12-14 of our eggs (no mail-order eggs this time) under one of the larger hens (if we have no large broody hens, it'll be a banty with only 5-6 eggs). Yassssssssssss. <3 I can't wait!
