Thank you so much! She really was such a friendly little lady, even laid an egg today☹ I told my husband last week despite her large comb she was having a hard time with this heat +humidity and I was worried about her. Today it was 107 real feel 112, damn ridiculous! I'll never get another one again. I'm down to 4 hens (1 is the broody) and 2 pullets. I just hope everyone else makes it through this nasty summer!
Idk, it just doesn't make sense, my WTB that has a modified pea does fine, along with my brahma, my Welsummer and OE are a gimme because their combs are huge, but my other 2 new additions BLRW and favaucana don't seem to be having a super hard time.
colthandorf lives 3hrs north of me (even hotter) and has English orps. We're going to be making some adjustments the next couple weeks, this weekend I need to get the chicken yard lined with HWC to keep the littles in (I've been meaning to anyway) and my husband is going to cut a bottom opening long window on the west side of the coop, I'm also going to the nursery up the road to look for a dwarf tree or bush for inside the run. One more day of these ridiculous temperatures and we'll go back to "normal" for awhile. Thank you again ❤
