Thursday 2 brown

Lost a juvenile barred rock overnight - most of thigh meat was missing, body was eviscerated. Some meat still on breast. Flock is currently 16? birds.
2 americauna
2? barred rock juveniles
1 old barred rock
5 Rhode Island Red juveniles
2 old RI Red
2 lace wing wyandotte
1 golden sexlink

Trap baited for raccoon will be set for the next few days. I'm hoping that a raccoon is the culprit. Caught raccoon first night I set trap.

2009 juvenile flock additions:
3 americauna
3 brown egg layers - golden laced wyandottes? Buttercups?

2009 Year old flock of 5 RI Red, 3 Barred Rock. Egg production in summer 2009 should be about 2 dozen every 4 days. 2010 production would bring it to 2 dozen every 3 days.

2010 additions - 3 brown egg layers. 2011 begin replacing RI Red and Barred Rock.

2 waves of meat birds - Cornish X Rock 8-10 birds 4 weeks apart. Will be thinking about other meat fowl.
