One of our first chicks (born Easter weekend) grew up to be a beautiful rooster. Last week Justafella (his dad) decided the coop wasn’t big enough for two roosters and forced Junior out. Poor Junior wandered around the yard desperately trying to crow, but the adolescent-style crack in his cock-a-doodle-do was pretty pitiful. Our friend Martin Mwiimbili claimed him over the weekend and took Junior to Livingstone where he is now the ONLY rooster in the henhouse. Martin reports that Junior is quite happy.
Just after Junior left us, one of our younger hens hatched out five new baby chicks. These new additions bring the henhouse total to 28.
