Saturday in the yard – Chickens enjoying the fall weather, lots of leaves to rake (someday)

Barred-Rock-Leghorn-Chickens-Fall-November-2

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted chicken photos. We’ve just been busy truckin’ along this fall and the chickens are doing the same. Thanks to the beautiful, dry, weather we’ve had here in the Northwest the chickens have spent a LOT of extra time running around the yard. I love looking out my kitchen window watching them peck and waddle around the yard. Combine that with the gorgeous fall leaves and it brings me joy to watch.  I still dream of having an actual farm someday and we are saving our pennies to someday make that dream a reality.

Family photo. All eight chickens are here. Of course they are more interested in eating grass and finding grubs than they are about getting their photo taken.

Barred-Rock-Fall-Beauty

This is a Barred Rock chicken, also called a Plymouth Rock.  She’s beautiful, but doesn’t seem as bright as her friends. She keeps laying eggs on the floor of the coop and not in the nesting box! Anyone have tips for getting her to lay in the box? She lays her eggs right by the front door and they are usually filthy and/or pecked at by the other chickens.

Chickens-walking-leaves-November-2

Our egg production is down to about three or four eggs a day. This is typical when the days start getting shorter and the weather starts cooling down. Our older chickens might not be laying anymore? I’m not sure. I was expecting we’d have more than what we are. But I’m grateful for any eggs we get.

I know I should probably rake them up. But I really don’t mind the leaves on the lawn.  . . .

What’s happening in your yard this week?  If you have backyard chickens – how are they doing? See other posts from our backyard and of our chickens here.

    Love your photos. They are taken close to the ground so I feel like I’m living in the picture too. Great posts. Thanks. I love chickens. Wish we could have some, but traveling too much. Happy Holidays.

    If you put a light on for 12 hours a day in the coop, it will keep their egg production up 🙂

    Put golf balls in your nesting boxes to help your confused chicken know where she should be laying!

What they’re saying

Queen Bee has been my go to for many years. Not only how to save on the family grocery budget. But, how to shop. From grocerys to clothes to household. She has saved us hundreds, if not thousands of dollars cumulatively over the years. Thank You! Debby F.

Queen Bee has been one of my favorite pages to follow! A friend kept sharing her deals so I had to start following and I’m so glad I did. I have been able to purchase so many items at great prices because of her posts. She is great about commenting back to questions or even just saying thanks to people who let her know they picked up an item she posted! Christine R.

Queen Bee is an amazing site with great deals no doubt, but my favorite parts are the snippets of silliness, morning coffee, amazing second hand finds. Queen Bee has saved me lots of money, but it's also brightened many a days! Tilla H.

Queen bee has helped me to make Christmas awesome for my kids every year. We follow the blog and are able to stay in budget and get twice as many items for the family. They are the best!! Jessica T.

Can always count on QueenBee for great deals from many different stores ! She's always keeping us well informed, saved a lot throughout the years, been following for a good 7 years ! Cathy L.
