With nice weather coming in, I may just take a Saturday and do that. Which says a lot - as I rarely leave this place at all. DJK – I really want to visit Salatin’s farm.

I really do share the good, bad, and ugly of my experiences in the hopes that others can find something that will help them out along the way. The only time I've had baby peeps, I raised them from one day old in a brooder in the house. I've never had the opportunity to let two mamas raise babies. I will tell you I've spoken to many people that have chickens that have never had their hens act like this. So who knows? Certainly I didn't! Like I said, I learn something new every day with these chickens. Fun times! Thanks, Cotton Lady.

What drama in the coop!! Thanks for sharing all of this with us. By the time I'm able to have chickens I will be able to draw on all your experiences. I love baby "anythings" so know how you must have felt. Well, except baby snakes, I guess! Take care and take heart-you're doing great! Wow!! What drama in the coop!!
