We only have three hens right now. We started with 15 straight run from Mt. Healthy hatchery. Most of the boys ended up on the dinner table and the hens have slowly dwindled in number. We came through winter with six hens, lost one to egg-binding, another to a mystery predator, and gave another to a friend. We gave away our last rooster, too. He was mean-- like homicidal!

We're expecting chicks from McMurray next month. We're getting Black Stars, Light Brahmas, Silver Spangled Hamburgs, Mille Fleurs and a Polish Crested cockerel.

Here's the flock this winter
