While we are pausing our breeding program, our hens have not gotten the message.

Rogue has had 2 clutches so far this season! She is an excellent momma about hiding her clutch and keeping the babies away until they are older. Surprised I caught the babies at all as they hatched yesterday!

When one of your BYM hens finally start laying, disappears, and then shows up with 9 babies.

She is a very good Momma keeping all her babies half way up a cedar tree for the night.

Did you know Ayam Cemani's can be broody and make pretty protective Momma's?

Happy New Year!

Apologies for being silent. We had a very busy family filled Christmas followed by a bad illness.

Of course that doesn't mean anything to the chickens, but special treats like turkey, ham, bread stuffing, and pasta.

We also had to put our winter preparation done in early November to work and fertilze the rye grass before the rain! Another couple weeks and the main flock will be allowed back into the paddock to enjoy the fresh rye grass.

Yes, we have outdoor rated extension cords in the runs. They are plugged into outdoor safe heated water bowls. This ensures the flocks have water to drink at all temperatures.

We have some warmer weather for the next little bit, so time to let some fresh air into the runs!

We are still here!

Days are getting shorter. Chickens are growing in new feathers. Eggs are scarce. Pumpkins are a plenty!

We are in the process of roofing our main coop and installing new tarps on the runs before winter settles in.

Stay dry and safe!

We are still here and going!

While we have closed our incubators for now, we do still have growing chicks.

Pictured are our 3 month old barn yard mix chick's. We feel like barn yard chicks are a nice surprise! You never know what they will look like or what color egg they will lay.

It does look like we have one cockerll in the bunch so if anyone is interested in him, send us a message!

Barn yard mixes!

Before we closed our incubators, we hatched out some BYM eggs. They are so darn cute!

We have are fairly certain all but 1 was fathered by Oreo, our recessive trait showing, Ayam Cemani.

We never know how they will come out looking. We prefer to hatch from colored eggs, to hopefully created colored egg laying hens. In the past we've gotten purple eggs, grey, tan with purple specks, olive, and olive with brown specks. Just never know!

If anyone has any interest in a private order let us know!
