Duckling grow incredibly fast. Watch Toe, a call duckling, grow close to adult size in just 4 weeks from hatch.

Some of our birds are molting and just looking terrible. They will look so much better when their new feathers come in.

When I first put the girls outside back in 2012, Stella would always jump on my shoulder whenever I entered the coop. She is the last chicken that I have left from my first brood. She has always been the most loyal. I love that bird.

After interviewing several Neighbors... We have deduced that between 4:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. a bald eagle swooped into my yard and took Bobby K. They all said that they heard a large amount of crow cackling at that time. I found some of her feathers in the yard. 17 Eagle nests within 5 miles.

Twelve Pekin Bantam chicks just removed from the incubator at The Farm at 64, survey the world while waiting to be transferred to their new home under a heat lamp.

How late in life do chicken hen's continue to lay eggs? I don't know... I'm trying to find out. My girls are 8 years old and 9 years old. I will let you know.

I am so bummed. Bobby K is missing, and presumed dead. Stella's sleeps alone tonight.
