Where the feathered things roam

@best-of-beaks

A side account for my feathered babies 🐣 We have 6 chickens: Graves, Molly, Polly, and Dolly the Bielefelders, Blackie the Barbu D'Anver, and Brat the Serama. We also have a house duck: Daisy Johnson the Muscovy drake. Search either their name or breed to find posts containing your favorite feathered baby!

Guess who is back ;D (winky duck face)

Daisy Johnson has rejoined our little family!! His return home is sadly not on the best terms but we're very happy to have him. Daisy has become extremely aggressive to male birds, roosters and drakes alike. Thankfully he doesn't harm hens but he's not interested in having any of his own. He killed his previous owner's rooster, and was in the process of killing their other one when they caught him. We've decided he'll be a house duck indefinitely due to his ridiculously sweet personality with people and the fact we cannot place him with other birds.

My heart is sad

Early this morning of February the 1st, 2019, at about 3am Daisy Rae the Silver Sebright rooster passed on to the next life. He’s gone, and my heart is heavy and sad. I know his internet fans must feel torn as well. He was always extremely friendly, sweet, and absolutely hilarious. His favorite games to play with his human parents included Point and Dance, and High Flyer Ground Crower. Every once in a while I’d play β€œWhere’s Daisy”. He loved to fly, sometimes higher than 20 feet. He enjoyed being inside the house so much, one time we thought he was gone into the night, when we found him sleeping on a blade of the kitchen ceiling fan! From the beginning, Daisy and his human daddy Chris shared a special bond. Chris named Daisy and loved how unique and cuddly he was. They had similar personalities, I’ve never seen a full grown man be as delicate and sensitive as Chris was with Daisy. We have lost one of the best, they always go too soon. We love you Daisy, rest in Paradise sweet little roo.

RIP you sweet boy πŸ’”

How to tell if you are a crazy chicken keeper

You go out in 55mph winds and spend an hour under a 60ft+ cedar tree with 3-4" thick branches falling around you, and using one of said branches to force two chickens out of said tree πŸ™ƒ

And now you're about to go back out after realizing you have blood on your hands. Aka someone is bleeding and we gotta find out who.

Fun times!
