All those mites are gone and all the chooks are looking fat, sleek and beautiful. We have 7 one week old chicks and their mother, Holly, is a nutter - scratching about like a mad thing in the moist dirt.
We have 4 little roosters ready for new homes and 4 pullets - they are all born in September so 8-12 weeks old. I will have to pass on a couple of my lovely hens in the new year as we just have too many for our little block. All the hatchings this year are amazing - I really should be showing in the next round of shows because they are beautiful - all boxes ticked: yellow feet, straight combs, great shape, bigger tails, red faces, even, strong buff colour. What a great year for us. :)
