Joyce's Chickens

I have had a few chickens for a couple of years.  This summer a friend gave me a setting hen.  I got some fertile eggs from my neighbor and she hatched out 5 baby chicks.  They were soooo cute.  Now they are full grown and I have 4 roosters and one hen.  I hope I have better luck next summer.  I need a few more laying hens.




































This is when they were about half grown.  They were all still trying to get under their Mother at night.  The three black ones all turned out to be roosters and I think the white one is a rooster.  Just the little brown one is a hen.






 















I't snowing outside, so they all want to sit on the roost all day.  The roosters are getting big enough for Sunday Dinner.  I will keep the biggest one only.
