Poor Lord Firestar

Friday, March 5th, 2010

He’s so excited!  It’s springtime!  He wants to chase and peck and crow!

The only problems is, he isn’t allowed to crow because we’re in The City and he isn’t exactly welcome here.  Poor Lord Firestar, he doesn’t like being put in his cage.

A beautiful day!

Today was a perfect day to take pictures.  The photos I took were so clear and bright that I didn’t need to use any filters to enhance the color!


Chipmunk and Help hang out.


Lord Firestar.  This picture is beautiful!

Great links and failure

I tried putting the diaper on Lord Firestar today.  That’s right, tried.  Turns out he’s too big and feathery for the extra small size!  Next I’ll try it on Lady Sandstorm.  Hopefully it’ll work!Here’s a few useful chicken links:Omlet, the art of keeping chickens!Omlet is the company that created the Eglu (yes, that should be enough to tell you that they are great)! They also have a nice forum.With more than 3,000,000 posts, Backyard Chickens is a great place to learn about chickens!My Pet Chicken sells lots of chicken supplies!Well, I guess that’s it for today!

Diapers!

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

That’s right, diapers!  Some relatives got me and Lord Firestar a purple butterfly extra small chicken diaper!  As you may (or may not) know, I really wanted one!  I’ll take pictures of it tomorrow!  Cross your fingers that it will work right!

We gave the Seramas milk today and Lady Sandstorm drank a lot.  Then her head got too low and it all trickled out of her beak.  It was gross.

Oh, and here’s some weight statistics, cross-posted from blogger Plain Old Chickens:

Lady Sandstorm weighs 13.2 ounces.
Chipmunk is 15.6 ounces.
Egglantine is…. 8.6 ounces!

Funny little Eggie.

My Seramas

Monday, January 4th, 2010

I have six Seramas at the moment.  Two from Jerry’s Seramas and four which were hatched from said pair’s eggs.  They are:

  1. Lord Firestar, rooster of the flock.  He’s heroic in the sense that, like a hero in a book, he fears violence and bloodshed.  A gentle rooster.
  2. Lady Sandstorm has an obsession.  She loves hair!  The little creep would spend her life eating the stuff if we let her!  Lady Sandstorm is also a good mom.
  3. The best way to explain Chipmunk’s personality is to say that she would fit right in as one of the three stooges.
  4. Yellow is sort of in love with Lord Firestar.  They hang out together quite a bit.
  5. Help is a little bit dumb but very pretty.  Her body is mostly cream colored and her neck a head feathers are reddish.
  6. Egglantine is the baby of the family!  She’s smaller and younger than the others.

Yes, I’m going to post pictures!
