Last night one of my egg laying hens disappeared without a trace. Of course there are feathers all over the place to allow us to come to the conclusion that something picked it off. Ugh. Why not those pesky roosters? Why my egg layers! Ok so I am down to 7 hens and 3 roosters.
Tomorrow is a sad day for 2 of my aggressive roosters....they are either going to be butchered (If James and I can get up the courage) or I am taking them down to auction. They have been terrorizing my hens. 3 roosters in a pen with 7 fertile hens is not a good thing. My poor hens have been suffering all week if you get my drift! There feathers are all plucked around the neck from those horrible roosters as they will not leave them alone. Oh well 2 of them will be gone tomorrow. Good ridden's!!!!!
Bye Bye suckers!!!
