Caught All but Three Roosters

Well, we chased roosters and caught 10. Rick had to work on the rooster coop and strengthen the fence. Now it's escape proof. Those roosters are fast. Three are still loose. One of the black Australorps likes to stand in front of my car and look at himself in the chrome of my bumper. It's too funny. I guess he made a friend. Well- off to catch three more. What fun- chicken chasing!

Separating the Roosters from the Hens

Yesterday we decided to separate the roosters from the hens. Of course we kept our two favorite roosters- Big Boy and Dominique- with the hens. It turns out that out of 20 chickens we bought in the spring- 13 were boys. There were 10 Buff Orphingtons that were presexed as female. It turns out that only three were girls. That doesn't seem like very good odds. Anyway, we moved the roosters into the old goat house. By the time we got home last night all of them had escaped through the electric fence. They stayed out last night. It was so sad- they went up to their old coop and kept trying to jump through the fence. They are still out tonight. We are going to put them up tomorrow. We would like to let them just free range- but then the hawks will get them.
