I've gotta say good ol days are back never thought we would top late nineties. Happy

Other day saw three hens with poults various sizes, mini, medium and looking like a hen. Really gives you thought about peak breeding and nesting periods

Side note Lord forgive we had fall turkey, these would be like Cornish hens. Probably do um a favor. Imagine pic on web all canned out lol

Dangit those are tiny for August.

I saw three Montana hens today on side of highway without poults. I hope they were just older poults that were darn near grown or their poults were in the weeds behind them.
