I've not seen that yet. My grandma always used to say--a crowing hen and whistling woman always come to some bad end---but I doubt this hen will ever see a stew pot! ;-)<BR/>Michelle--I have twelve chickens total--11 hens and one rooster. I have one dominque, the four black hens pictured, the following Americuanas: 2 brown, 1 white, 2 grey (including 'Sue'), and 1 reddish grey--plus the rooster. All old....<BR/>JK--it's nice having the hatchery so close and handy, isn't it? Sometimes too nice...<BR/>TammyTammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131066591477169851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28884256.post-20888628290704688902008-11-06T13:20:00.000-08:002008-11-06T13:20:00.000-08:00I enjoyed reading about your chickens..I hope to g...I enjoyed reading about your chickens..I hope to get a few someday.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17664824920459341153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28884256.post-88900131092584398182008-11-04T05:13:00.000-08:002008-11-04T05:13:00.000-08:00Our girls are about the same age as On'y.

Oh, and about using eggs: I don't make quiche very often because I haven't found a low-fat way to make it (all that cheese!), and both Rick and I have cholesterol "issues." The apple kugen was actually pretty healthy since I used non-fat yogurt; that means the only fat in a 9x13 pan is a 1/2 cup of butter (I used a healthier alternative) and the eggs.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28884256.post-25033589050409226832008-11-03T19:44:00.000-08:002008-11-03T19:44:00.000-08:00What a good looking biddy O'ny is!Re crowing hens ...What a good looking biddy O'ny is!<BR/><BR/>Re crowing hens -- I had one old girl once who didn't crow but she did, in her old age, grow rooster spurs.Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.com
