Chicken social hierarchy is absolutely hilarious!

In my main pen, I have 2 roosters and 12 hens. One is a big, beautiful Silkie who clearly runs the place. The other is a teeny-tiny, 3-month-old Serama who may or may not have a Napoleon complex. 😂

Watching them establish their little kingdoms has been fascinating. They've naturally divided themselves by breed, with the Silkie claiming 9 girls and the tiny Serama getting 3. And one of his girls is a Silkie the rest of the flock rejected. We lovingly call her the “ugly girl.” 💜

Naturally, this got me thinking... roosters are such little feathered pigs! 🐷

Give them too few girls, and suddenly everyone's getting over-loved. They hoard their favorites, squabble over the ladies, and apparently have no problem flirting (and more) with multiple girls right in front of each other! Meanwhile, we humans are out here providing food, shelter, and a front-row seat to all the drama.

WHAT KIND OF TINY FEATHERED MEN ARE WE RAISING HERE?! 🤣🤣🤣

So Champion 🏆 isn't doing great. 😢

She wasn't the healthiest chick at birth, so I've been a little afraid she might not thrive. I thought she had a respiratory infection, and she seemed to be improving with treatment, but yesterday she suddenly crashed. 💔

But after hours of spoon-feeding her electrolytes, I finally got her eating on her own and standing back up to sleep! I am so hopeful that she is turning a corner.

Of course, she's inside with me, being toted around the house from room to room. 😂 I even put her little crest up in a ponytail so she can see better since she's struggling to find food. She's incredibly weak, too. I'm afraid she'll fall into a water dish (I've sadly had that happen with a sick chicken before), and she's not strong enough to peck the ni**le waterers, so I'm still spoon-feeding her water every couple of hours.

But this little girl is my very first hatch and the sole survivor of my very first hatch! We've already been through so much together, and she's grown into such a beautiful girl.

I'm not ready to give up on her. She HAS to make it! So, my Sunday plans have officially been canceled in favor of keeping a close eye on this little fighter. 💛❤️

Send Champion some good vibes!

💜 Meet Amethyst! 💜

This gorgeous lavender girl is one of my beautiful example of the breed, coming from a show-quality line! I got my lavender girls and boys from The Ruffled Silkie, and I’ve been in awe of them since they arrived a few months ago.

I’ve been playing detective trying to figure out which girl started laying, and today I finally caught the culprit! 😂🥚 I’m so excited to see them reaching this milestone!

Now the countdown begins… Silkie chicks coming next year! I can’t wait to see what these beauties produce! 💜🐣

Watching my chickens grow and change so much, so fast never gets old! 🥹

This girl was my very first hatch from my very first breeding of my own chickens. I only incubated 2 eggs, and she was the only one to hatch. I just happened to be there when she pushed her way into the world. She wasn’t the healthiest-looking chick I’d ever seen, but I loved her instantly.

Now look at her blossoming into this gorgeous girl! This was before her “haircut” last night. 😂

I can’t wait to see what her babies will be and what I can do with that beautiful satin penciling! ❤️

🌧️ The chickens survived the Great Texas Flood of 2026!

Okay, maybe that is dramatic, but when part of your yard turns into mini ponds in heavy rain, you worry! Thankfully, everything held up and everyone stayed nice and dry.

The coop area is looking better too, thanks to some FREE wood chips from ChipDrop! I spread them around the area I was worried about flooding and built up a little berm. Not only did it help with flooding, but it actually makes a pretty nice barrier around the coops!

💡 DIY tip: No wheelbarrow? Use an old rolling trash can! My wheelbarrow had a flat tire, and I have old rolling cans around. So, I finally found a use for my old trash cans and it doubles as dry storage for bedding!

Now I'm working on some inexpensive winter-proofing ideas. I already had a thick clear tarp for the back, just need to figure out the front!

It's coming together pretty nicely, especially considering I've done most of it myself on a budget, with some help from my son and family. ❤️

What's the best “I didn't have the right tool, so I improvised” DIY hack you've used? 😂👇

Application for TAHC certification sent in! 🎉

Another exciting step forward in this chicken adventure and one step closer to officially being able to sell my birds and eggs in Texas!

Now it’s in their hands, and I’m crossing my fingers for a smooth process! Can’t wait to see where this next chapter takes me and eventually share some of my beautiful birds with other chicken lovers! 🐔

Look at this plump little butterball! 🐥💛 Such a round little chick with adorable chubby cheeks.

I mean… look at those cheeks! Giving “I have never known a single hardship in my life" vibes. 😂

I know I'm going to have to part with this cutie eventually, but for now I’m just enjoying this tiny, fluffy marshmallow. ☁️🐥

And yes, I’m fully aware I’m going to get attached. I regret nothing. 😂💕

Follow along because apparently I’m collecting (or hatching) chickens like Pokémon and I need witnesses. 🐥😂🐔

Another cutie I absolutely cannot wait to watch grow up! 🥹

This tiny little mystery chick was born just a few days ago from eggs I got from Amber Willard. Hatching these eggs and having zero idea what color was going to pop out made it so much fun! Every hatch was a little surprise, and a 75% hatch rate which is pretty great! 🥚✨

But when this little one hatched… I was instantly in love. 😍 I don’t know what it is about that tiny face, but something about it completely melted my heart. So I guess I love showgirls now. Maybe it’s the sweet little expression, maybe it’s that adorable coloring, or maybe this chick just has main character energy. 😂💕

She is a black mottled showgirl. For those who aren't as familiar with silkies, this means she will be dark with lots of white spotting and her neck will not have any feathering. 🪶

Haven’t picked a name yet, but I’m open to suggestions… and PLEASE, PLEASE let this baby be a GIRL! 🙏😂
