Closeups of Frick the Chick
Frick is one of our Frick and Frack duo. To this point we’re not exactly sure what they are. They sure are pretty! Frick is the lighter grey bodied of the two, and the lighter head plumage as well. We’re excited to see how they develop…at this point Frick and…
Meet Copper!
You may have noticed, only a couple of our black pullet chickens had names to this point. We realize they are different, but there haven’t been that many unique characteristics showing to tell them apart easily. They also change EVERY DAY! So this was a delightful surprise, what we thought…
The Mandalorian baby yoda and Butterscotch the chicken
Butterscotch also posed with #babyyoda for these pics. It’s been fun to add props to the photo shoots to see just how much and how quickly our pullet chicks have grown! These ladies are approx 7 weeks old in this photo shoot series.

Lady Elaine and the Chicken Diaper experience
Yes, indoor diapers for chickens is a thing. We’ve gotten a few in a variety of sizes to try them out and see what they are like. This #motherclucker has to do more research about putting clothes on chickens. Somehow I don’t think we are doing it right…looks awkward at…

Brown Leghorns? Americana? Starlink Green Egger? Marvin/Melvin and maybe Big Bird?
Brown Leghorns share the productive traits and nervous personality of their white cousins but have slightly larger bodies clothed in one of the most beautiful feather patterns of any white egg laying breed. Always alert, Brown Leghorns are athletic, excitable, noisy and often better able to avoid predators than slower…
