The hens moved outside and all is going well. It is a good thing that I put the fence around the coop because it is going to take a while before Bixby looses interest in the chickens. Everything seemed fine until one morning we heard a strange noise. We thought it was one of the cats but then realized it was coming from outside. It sounded like rr rr rrrr. After about 4 days and being in denial we have conceded that Billina is a cockerel. She...he is such a friendly chicken. I don't want to have him reduced to a meal so I am trying to find him a home. It's difficult...you just really don't need many males around, but I am asking everyone I know with chickens. Hopefully some one will show up before the neighbors complain.
