Meat Birds

The difference between the males and females are becoming more pronounced. The roosters to be spend more time challenging the other birds. However Eve still rules the roost. Today we put all the layers together. See how it goes, I'll give them an hour or so.

Otisville

Drover down to Otisville Saturday with Betsy, Sam, Beth to buy some Golden Comet pullets.
It was about an hour and a half or so, we got 4 Betsy got a dozen they were asking $8/bird.
The girl's name selling them is Trish Sweetman, they had a thousand or so, quite an operation. Very pretty birds. When we got them home we isolated them in the west wing of the chcicken coop and started introducing them to the other birds Sunday
