I'm impressed with what I've seen. I'm already out of town visiting family so I missed the Christmas Eve service. Anyway it's quite a haul from Steele Creek but I may check it out in the future.

Chicagocubs I saw the chicken photo in your profile. Gotta love those creatures eh? I have 7 Chickens here on Robinson Church rd. One of those looks like your chicken but he has a white head so we decided to name him Elvis.

He's a rooster, then? Is he black with a white bit on top? My son raises chickens on his farm in Wesley Chapel, used to have a hen that looked like that, they named her Dahlia.

The chicken that you were looking at is Buttercup, she is my favourite. She is the only survivor of a vicious dog attack early in the year that just about wiped out my son's flock. We've rebuilt it now and he's hatched a few, so, there are about 20 regular chickens and about 30 Seramas; he breeds them to sell as pets. He used to keep a blog on their daily activities, but, after so many were brutally killed by various animals including a bobcat (and, of course, the dogs), it just became too painful.

Sorry to hear that. I'm glad he is rebuilding. I lost 3 chickens this year and trapped 2 possums and killed 1 Raccoon so far. I keep my .22 Long rifle near the coop now.

You know, you can get them at the Charlotte-Mecklenburg pound! I got 4 hens and a Guinea for $8.00!! Could have had a rooster, too, but, we already had one and did not think that they would get along.

Gotta keep that in mind. Got 2 Roosters here atm. Elvis he is a Polish and pip he is a bantam.

Pip (male) Squeak (Female) Bantam

Henny (Female) Penny(Female) Plymouth rocks

Georgia bell (female) Demetris (Female) Rode island reds.

Then we have Elvis he is Polish.

Kinda funny when Pip trys to act tough. Such a little guy he try to attack your ankles. I just pick him up and stick him in my pocket if he get's too wild.
