Well, its been a month and I am happy to say we have not lost any more chickens. I have found replacement chickens at various stores/farms around the southern state, and my flock is doing well. There is only one problem now... I think I have a cock in the group. (Yes, I did enjoy typing that!) One of the chickens is looking like a rooster! If we hear a cock-a-doodle-doo, "he" will have to be taken back to the store along with $15 to find him a good home. I will either do that, or abandon him at Knotts Berry Farm to live a life of amusement. I think I will take "him" to the store. They sleep outside (in their coop) now and I have an electric fence system that comes on at dusk. Ruckus will not go anywhere near the side of the house. I think he learned his lesson with one shock. I also rigged an automatic water bowl to fill up when the sprinklers come on so they are pretty low maintenance now:)

I can't believe how big they've gotten in just a month. Sorry about your cock problem.
