Chickens: I Hate To Even Go Here, But I Must…

Yes, another installment to the story of our chickens. 

As you remember, we added five little hens to our flock of three, bringing the total to eight.  And everything was going very well.

Until one day last week.

When I heard one of them crowing.  Drat!

This morning I staked out the pen to see who the culprit was, and discovered there were TWO separate crowers.

Double drat!!

So I came back in to do some online research and discovered I likely had THREE roosters out there.

Triple drat!!! 

Here are the five as they look now.

And here are the three “hens” that I now think are roosters.

The first one has tufts of feathers sticking out of the sides of it’s head.  He cracks me up.

This next one is kind of the dominant one.  If there is any food to be given, he is first in line.  No ifs ands or buts.

This last one is my favorite.  It is the most mild mannered out of the three, and I think the most beautiful.

And alas, I just got confirmation from several people on Backyard Chickens that I have three boys and two girls.  Shoot.

Now I just need to figure out what to do with them, lol!

Anyone have any ideas?????

Anyone want one???
