Bossy Bessy

  • Buff Brahma
  • lays light brown small eggs
  • won't lay in the nesting closet with all the other chickens
  • lays in the garage in her own spot
  • paid extra to make sure she was a girl (10 buckeroos)
  • fiesty (even though every description I've read about this breed is they are super nice and sweet) I have to sneak up and catch her and she allows me to hold her nicely, but then when I put her down again...if any body part of mine is close to her she'll attack it..No it doesn't hurt.
  • Marshmallow picks on her
  • Bessy picks on Barry and Shirley Schroom

Marshmallow

  • white silkie
  • lays white eggs
  • finally can tell she's a girl...late bloomer
  • sweetest thing ever I hold her all the time and when I go feed them...she is always around my feet wanting to be near me
  • is NOT on the bottom of pecking order somewhere near the bottom maybe like 3rd from the bottom
  • just got done taking a dirt bath so she looks like a toasted marshmallow
