Growing fast!

You may have a lazy cat if....



We got an assortment of rare breed chickens this year and we sure are
 enjoying finding out what we have as they get older
This pretty lady is a Blue Laced Wyondotte. 



We got a few of these and are hoping one turns out to be a rooster so
we can hatch some more out next year.

  1. How fun!! I love the color of her feathers. (I can't believe the cat is just laying there not trying to get the chicken:)

  2. How old is she?

    When will you be able to tell if you have a rooster?

  3. The cat is thinking … chicken & rice or chicken & noodles … decisions to make … oh it hurts to much to think … I’m going back to sleep.

  4. John- That is exactly what she was thinking!
    Michelle- With the wyondottes it will be awhile before I will be able to tell. With both the Wyondottes and the Orpingtons I sometimes can't tell until they get their combs or start to crow. They are almost 5 weeks old. We got at least 5 of this breed though and it was straight run so chances are good that we will some of each.

  5. Let me know if you get 2 roosters. I'm ready for one to keep our 'girls in line'.
