Picy Post: Chicks, chicks and Fodder

Jun 26, 2012 20:39

Wendy and her chicks are enjoying their pen, even their "neighbors" the Rhodie pullets:




I'm particularly fond of this little Frizzle, I hope its a female:




Salt's chick is growing like crazy and absolutely beautiful, I'm truly hoping its a female because I'd love to breed her:




The two of them together are quite striking:




The shy little Partridge Silkie always hides from me. I barely get pics of her:




Napoleon Blownaparte is not shy. He desperately misses Wendy and cannot wait to have his lady back. One of his ladies is brooding, the white Silkie, so we'll be moving Wendy back in and the white Silkie and her nest into the Rustic Roost soon.




They aren't ready to go it alone, but they are a lovely bunch:




In fodder news, we've started the Farro (its kind of boring as its in the pressing stage):




The Red Barley is doing pretty well, not great, though:




The Black Oil Sunflower Seed looks great. I do love it!
