I posted a photo of our 7 yr old Wyandotte hen, Tammy, and her new "chicklet" companions on my blog. They sure grow fast!

Maria-
Tammy is beautiful and the little chiklets are very cute! I bet it will be nice to have a full coop again! :)

I really missed having a little flock. This time though, we are going to do what we can to encourage the new girls to lay their eggs in a coop. Over the years I noticed that the girls generally kept the same laying spot for the season (especially since we keep a dummy egg there) but it's like an Easter egg hunt when they start laying or when something spooks them away from their nest. I can't even count the time I've spent searching for a nest when I hear the unmistakable clucking of a hen that just laid an egg. They are clever birds that really know how to hide their eggs!
