This layer of insulative shiny bubblewrapy stuff is thanks to an abandoned grow house. Their trash is our chicken’s treasure! It cuts down on the draft and really brightens the stall up! I’m looking forward to having it up in the other stalls soon too. #chickenobsessed #blackcoppermarans #lavenderameraucana #oliveegger #oliveeggers #maransofinstagram #marans #maranschickens #chickensofinstagram #chickensofmaine #mainechickens #mainechickenenthusiasts #mainepoultry #barnlife Mommy’s handsome boy Caption Jean-Luke Picard showing off those long tail feathers. He turned eight months this weekend and still has a bit to go until all his plumage is 💯 in since his first full molt. #bielefelderchicken #roosterlove #handsomerooster SHOP RESTOCK: https://mainehomesteadmagazine.com/product-category/hatching-eggs/ #blackcoppermarans #rainboweggs #creamcrestedlegbar #legbarchickens #legbar #easteregger #oliveegger #oliverggers #hatchingeggs #hatchingeggsforsale #mainechickens #mainechicks #chickensofmaine #chickensofinstagram Sorting for orders, darkest to light. #blackcoppermaraneggs Oh my! I wonder which girl laid that Marans egg? #egggoals #blackcoppermaraneggs #oliveegger #legbar #55floweryhen Another day at the office as the weird chicken lady. I take that title very seriously. #mainechickens #crazychickenlady We have some happy peepy day-old Marans ready for new brooders locally (Maine). Given the cold snap, an inability to house them in the barn, they are on sale for $15/each all straight run. They hop around so fast it’s hard to count, but I think it’s about 20. #blackcoppermarans #mainechickens #mainefarms #mainechickenenthusiasts #maranschicks Little egg, big egg. Blue egg, chocolate egg. #blackcoppermarans #celadonquail I have been alerted by our dual chick hatched alarm system. They are way to into this! #hatchingeggs #blackcoppermarans #hatchaholicsanonymous #mainechickens #mainechickenenthusiasts This week has been a blur at work. The girls gifted us a few beautiful eggs, but overall production is low. I still haven’t finished the wiring in the barn for the timed lights. #blackcoppermarans #blackcoppermaraneggs #marans #maranseggs #legbar #creamcrestedlegbar #mainechickens #hatchingeggsforsale #oliveegger #oliveeggers #greeneggs #blueeggs #eastereggs #pinkeggs #bielefelderchicken #bielefelderchickens #rainbowbasket #egggoals #fromthecoop Thanks sweeties. #ilovechickens Check out that food boob on this chick! Holy that’s one full crop.😳🐣🤷 #mainechickens #chicks #hatchingeggsforsale #blackcoppermarans #maransofinstagram #maranseggs #maranschicks Apparently the broody girl talked Captain Kirk into guarding the nest while she’s away. 🤨 #broodyhen #creamlegbar Have you hugged a chicken today? I'm dropping some fun chicken merch in the shop today. #hugachicken #chickenobsessed #chickenmama #chickenchores #farmlife #mainechickens #ilovechickens Mama’s snuggle bug. He sure has come a long way. When we first took this rescue dog into our home, his ears lays flat as he could keep them, and his tail stayed down between his legs for days. He would tremble and shake and not want to be picked up. He was terrified of being pet on the head. And he had no idea how to play. Now he and Chip prance and dance outside, playing and having the snow zoomies. He begs to be held. 🥹🥰 Mama’s sweet boy, Saul Gooddog. #rescuedog 🤭 Hi mom, nothing to see here. #bootedbantam #frizzles #frizzle #belgianbootedbantam #duccle Bullseye! That’s a fertile egg from the Bielefelders. I’m getting ready to hatch and cracked a few open to investigate. #bielefelderchicken #fertilizedeggs See you in a few weeks! Celedon quail eggs hatch in 17 days and chicken eggs hatch in 21. #celedonquaileggs #creamcrestedlegbareggs The guardian of the egg! #creamcrestedlegbar #bluechickeneggs #rooster A perfect example of the absurd variation in Easter Egger genetics! These black hens are from the same mother hen crossed with an easter egger rooster. One lays a pale pink egg, and the other lays a lovely aqua-blue tinted egg. You just never know! So fun! We are now offering Easter Egger crosses from multiple lines as hatching eggs in our shop. #easteregger #eastereggers #eastereggersofinstagram #hatchingeggsforsale #hatchingeggs #rainbowbasket #chickenmath #chickenmathisreal #chickenmathstrikesagain #blackchickens #gothchicken #mainechickens #mainechickenenthusiasts #chickensofmaine #barnlife #chickenbreeder Legbar chicks are autosexing. The males have a pale yellow spot and the females have a rusty brown spot. #legbarchicks #creamcrestedlegbar #mainechickens #hatchingeggsforsale It’s beautiful, but can go wrong fast. Never step on the break pedal hard or over correct. And start at the crest barely rolling. #mainelife #mountainlife #mainewinter #winterdriving #snowday #dailycommute #farmher Oh, well hello there. I stopped by to visit and POOF I got a chicken on my shoulder. Man, these guys are so friendly. #belgianbootedbantam #duccle #bootedbantam RESTOCK ALERT: New eggs in the shop: https://mainehomesteadmagazine.com/hatching-eggs/ #hatchingeggsforsale #mainechickens #blackcoppermarans #oliveegger #ameraucana #easteregger #legbar #rainboweggs Here’s some of today’s collection so far. Chilly and windy weather, and overcast skies have lead to low production. There’s a stretch of snow, sleet and freezing rain in the forecast this upcoming week. #rainboweggs #rainboweggs🌈 #blackcoppermarans #legbarchickens #legbar #creamcrestedlegbar #blueeggs #pinkeggs #easteregger #oliveegger #blackameraucana #lavenderameraucana #ameraucana #oliveeggs #bielefelderchicken #hatchingeggsforsale #autosexingchickens Today’s bounty. 😍🐣 #blackcoppermarans #oliveegger #bielefelderchicken #easteregger #legbar I just love how the barn looks a little pink at sunrise. We still need to button up the ends, but she sure is coming along. This barn has been quite the undertaking. #mainebarns #mainesunrise #winterwonderland Each egg is wrapped with bubble wrap then into little packets that are all taped up together to keep the eggs from shifting. I take care to keep each one pointy end down with a minimum of two layers between each egg. #hatchingeggsforsale #hatchingeggs #eggsbymail #blackcoppermaranshatchingeggs #blackcoppermarans #celadonquail #celadonquaileggs #legbarchickens #creamcrestedlegbar #goldcrelelegbar When you’re eight year old helps pack the meat.
