Hiking Pikes Peak Up & Down 26 Miles
Today We’re hiking Pikes Peak in Manitou Springs Colorado. It’s 13.5 Miles up and down, so a total of 26 miles or just a bit over 60,000 Steps! Many people only hike up, so the trek up and down can be an experience you’re missing out on!

    No surprises that the buff orpington made the list, indeed, top of the list. Weather be warmish? Time to brood! The Australorp have orpington in them, so again, no surprise. Not fond of silkies, they are a rather dumb breed over all.

    Have bred Polish chickens for years. Never had one go broody. They are not suppose to go broody. That's a breed disqualification. Best and most reliable broody hens and by far the best moms in the chicken world are the Aseels.

    I have a question My hens get let out each day about 11.00am to roam the neigbourhood. We have 6 hens 3 of the have hatched eggs in the past. They originally were wild hens but now they live in our coup. We had one of the hens last year go broody under our house and hatch 11 babies and two others hatched eggs nearby. This year they start sitting but when I open the doors they all run our, even the 2 hens that usually go broody. I can't figure out what to do to keep them interested in staying on the eggs. I am sure 2 of them have started to go broody as they show all the signs, smelly poo, sitting on the eggs but they get upset if they other hens go walkabout without them. I am thinking I might have to make the enclosure bigger, taking in more of the yard just for the time they hens start going broody to stop they leaving for the day. Any suggestions would be great as we have to get the eggs in as we don't have a rooster so it is a bit difficult. Help????

      Also aseels, actually aseels are much better moms than silkies. They are bigger so they can cover more eggs and fight off small predators like snakes and hawks also unlike silkies they are excellent foragers, and they always stay on the top of pecking order their chicks get plenty of food . I have also noticed that they are excellent teachers, I have seen them punishing slow learners

    • @Alexarmer
      @Alexarmer Рік тому

      It’s not very likely that they are going to go broody when they are only 5 months old, also typically have to have a full nest of eggs to go broody, young hens may also be curious and peck at there own eggs too. I’d just keep using these methods to stop break them of the bad habit as they get older, thanks for watching

I am just doing this as my hobby and its just me and hubby with kids all gone. I'm hoping that I will have some chicks since we got a rooster at some point. I will have 1 buff Orpington and 1 black astralope. I definitely will get some of those fake eggs when the time comes! I don't think I will ever get to 50 chickens but around here I won't have any problem giving chicks away lol!

    2:18 The Rhode Island Red roosters are pretty bossy with their hens, too! During the 1940s, my mother had a very large flock of free-range Rhode Island Reds, and they laid very well. We were in rural western Tennessee and when there was no market, she fed the excess eggs to the hogs. Imagine that today! The chickens were fascinating to watch and you could see the individual personalities. It was interesting to see their hierarchal structures, the roosters fighting for dominance, the dominant rooster's favorite hens as well as those he chose not to mate with, and their general sex lives which were very active!
