The New Brood


Just before Thanksgiving 2008, we added 50 new Red Sexlinks pullets to our flock. While they are maturing, they are living in a protected "brooder pen". Now that they are about 8 weeks old, they are just about fully feathered and started to test their wings a bit. It will still be a number of weeks before they are large enough to be able to join the big flock.
