1 brown

yesterday 1 brown.

So the remaining flock has had a major production drop. I think the duck slaughter on Sunday may help.

So one of the ducks is being slaughtered on Sunday. An enclosure for the young chickens is going to be made - they'll have separate food and water and a place to roost early next week. The next 26 baby chicks come in next week.

I need to get storage for chick starter and a new 12 pound feeder, plus a waterer for young chicken area.

Going to be some yummy chickens in June and July.
