Pics and updates...new hens that lay eggs! :)

OK first...I think I may have mentioned in here that I am going to be getting a hen?  If not...well, I'm going to be getting a hen!  AND not just one hen...TWO!  And they are about a year and 1/2 yrs old and the best thing...they lay eggs!  Were picking them up on Friday.  Tomorrow Cory will be getting off work a little early (he thinks) and then were going to be working on more cages.  I'm hoping for two cages so we don't have to used the dog kennel...as Max (our dog) still needs the kennel when were not home.  They will be used for possible breeding pens later if we choose to breed later on.  Right now we need one for our two welsummer hens were getting Friday because they need to be quarantined for 30 days....and the other is for in the hen house introducing the other middle girls to the flock.  The three I'm introducing will need to stay in that cage for a week or possibly two.  Until the girls get used to them being around.  I HOPE all goes smoothly! 
A few in the middle brooder are fighting, not real bad but I see some marks on the combs...Kelly seems to be taking the brunt of it.  And the smaller male D'uccle too.  what's happening is the bigger D'uccle male is picking on Kelly and Kelly is picking on the smaller male d'uccle! LOL At least that's my theory.  No one fights or anything when i'm there. I sat and watched them an hour so I could see if anyone fought but everyone was good.  The reason I think that the bigger D'uccle is the "head roo" is because his comb looks perfect!  And I did witness Kelly pulling someones head...I thought it was a girl but maybe it was the small roo. The little babies are doing wonderful and growing nicely.  THEY all love each other ;)  There is only 8 in that brooder tho and they are still very tiny!  Only a week-to two old. 

Ok enough talk, time for some pictures! 

Here is my guy Kelly (my indoor chicken Serama)he's getting pretty big but still the other babies outgrow him in three weeks time lol.  He has been moved once to the younger chicks...now we may have to separate him again because the hens are getting way to big for him.




Here is an example...the black australorp girl is 2 week younger then kelly but quite a bit bigger already. We try to let them out every day so they can stretch their wings a bit...the don't go anywhere just roost on the edge of the cage.  It's funny when 7 are up there. 




Her is my top roo...Harry   Look how nice HIS comb is.  He is VERY nice to us.  No pecking at all with us. 



Nic loves feeding them and they LOVE eating ;)



He says it tickles...as they pull skin on his hand!  LOL



We love taking Kelly out.  Can't wait to get a hold of one of those diapers for chickens! 



Now he has Ebony out our black australorp pullet



Here is MY baby!  OH I love this little cute chick! Haven't named it yet...gotta think of the perfect name. It's my black crested white polish





And my other favorite Shelby not sure if it's a he or a she...i'm THINKING a he but we will find out.  This is the only lonley one that hatched out from the eggs kelly sent to me.  A golden Phoenix







That's it for today :)  Hope you enjoyed seeing my babies today.
