My flock is part Cochen and part Ameraucana. Blue egged, feathered legged, chickens...say that out loud.

sounds like a doctor seuss book! I have two ameraucanas and some big black hen left.
my neighbors dogs were up on my porch trying to get my rooster yesterday morning

I hatched him and I am a little attached. now I know what probably happened to my RIR rooster. one of them is just a daschund but the other is a big dopey older lab pup. my poor rooster was shocky. just let me walk up to him and grab him which is unusual. the lab kept trying to come to me and go belly up. I finally pelted him with enough rocks he got the idea......

still......if he gets one he will go home with a dead chicken strung around his neck.
my worthless dogs were just watching with a...."you'd better not do that!" look.
