Oops i totally forgot to keep this updated, so to everyone who read my first post and was like what happened to him, i just spaced on keeping up on this. So to inform you all, my lakenvelder has gone broodie now and is on day 13 of sitting on 5 eggs. I don't know who all the eggs came from but i know one is from my leghorn and on is from my sussex. I believe one is from an EE too. They will all be over my ameraucana roo, im super excited to see what the hatch will look like. I will only be keeping those that are not solid black. I have to may solid black girls atm i don't want any more. =) My blue ameraucana cockerel has started to crow and the other black ameraucana girls are letting him breed them. He is starting to learn how he should treat them and so far he comes no were near me which is a good thing cause i would like to keep him since he has the blue gene.
Also to inform everyone i will be moving with in a month or so with my sister to arizona, her husband works out there and she wants to go into nursing school since she has all the prereqs done and all that so i will be going with her to help her out with her kids and all. The flock will be split then as i'm leaving the ones my parents gave to me while i am living with them so that will include 8 hens and the black ameraucana.
My babies are growing very fast one of them is turning into a very pretty EE, black and white, i hope its a hen since i have wanted a black and white EE hen since i started keeping chickens.
Garden update now, its not going well. The corn has started to die and we haven't gotten anything good from that and so have the cucumber plants. They are only producing yellow cucumber which tastes bitter and all so the chickens have been getting a lot of it. The strawberries are doing good but when they start to turn red the bugs get to them or they start to wilt so i don't know. The tomatoes have all but died and i'm planning on harvesting the potatoes tomorrow or the next day and see how those did. The bell pepper plant has taken off and has 3 growing on it so far. The raspberry plant is dying at the base but growing amazing everywhere else. And the blueberry plant is growing slowly but its growing.
I had a interview last week at a feed store and i'm hoping i get the job, cause it would be amazing to work there, but at the same time i don't cause i don't want to be there for like two weeks or whatever the time frame is and then quit. OK thats all for now, if you have any comments feel free to state them or any questions go ahead and ask. =)
