New kids on the (chopping) block - 31 broilers, Cornish Rock giants (and a new little pup to keep Fiona company). So far so good except for a curious skunk on several nights. We have never yet lost a chicken to predators, the dogs definitely can take the credit for that. We did lose 2 ducks though one time to the neighbor’s dog, that dog wasn’t long for this earth as he got hit on the road not long after his crime. The broilers are eating machines for sure and have heard that they can suffer from heart attacks from overeating, we have not experienced this..knock on wood.

Oops- kittens, well all we have to say is that they’re a lot of great fun, it’s an experience that is pert near all joy.
