Chickens

Well, I think I owe you all a chicken update. Right now we have 11. 1 rooster we are keeping, 9 hens, and 1 black chicken that I'm afraid is a rooster, but I keep hoping.




This is the barred rock rooster we're keeping.

 




The one on the left is our only Rhode Island Red.  On the right is an Ameruacana.

These rings have been a bit hit.

 



Buff orpingtons






This is the black one I'm afraid is a rooster.  See his tail?  Roosters' tails develop big feathers that droop.  Hens don't.  Also, green feathers are usually present in roosters, not hens. 

 


And one last Halloween picture, because they look so cute!
