Introducing the new Cockerel : Chick - Chick!

Image
Assalamualykum everyone! Today we're going to introduce our new rooster: Chick - Chick. We got him the day before yesterday and decided to name him Chick - Chick.... And that was because Snowy and Custurd had a little brother who's name was Chick - Chick, he died with a Sickness called Coccidiosis. It made us feel very sad, we loved him the most especially because of his bravery and patience. So we decided to name this new rooster Chick - Chick. And as a coincidence, he looks exactly like a bigger version of the before Chick - Chick!! He's such a wonderful husband to Snowy and Custurd!  They are very pleased to have a rooster... And the best part is he always crows early morning - just like all roosters! Well, that's all for now. We will be posting more about Chick - Chick in the future. Inshallah.

Wonderful news!

Assalamualykum everyone! We have some wonderful news today! It is.............. Snowy laid an EGG!!! Mashallah! we're soooooooo happy because this is her first egg!! We bet she's about five months, and it's a good age for a pullet to start laying eggs! Laying an egg means we've got to bring a rooster as soon as possible! We hope Custurd will lay one too!                                           That's all for now and we hope to see you again Inshallah!                                                     Oh! sadly, Khadijah dropped the egg..........                                                                        Assalamualykum.

It's created by our Ummi (mum) and we thought we would share it with you all.                                               My Garden Of Love I plan to plant my garden of love, I want flowers, fruits, and strong firm roots which will give me, and the doves,  the pleasure of love. Let me choose my seeds with the utmost care, truthfulness, kindness, gentleness cheerfulness,thoughtfulness,forgiveness and generous, are some of the seeds that  I highly admire! I must plant them in my garden  because its a wonderful harvest  which I could share! By: Fathima Bint Moinudeen

Cleaning,cleaning......Custurd!

Assalamualykum! It's a Hanaah here, We've haven't posted any topics about our chickens for a very long time so  we decided to write about them! Let's begin... Chickens love to keep their selves clean, and they do that by having mud baths. it's a kind of bath that they wash themselves with dirt (whatever kind of dirt). That's why it's not that recommended to wash your chicken regularly with water as they keep themselves clean..... If you are not familiar with how they do it, here are some videos from YouTube and a video of our chickens: Mud bath (1) Mud bath (2) Mud bath (3) Okay.....Let me get to my point........ Our Custurd is well... I would say a bit  extraordinary... Mashallah she LOVES to keep herself clean as well as Snowy. But Snowy cleans herself like all hens - with dust, whereas Custurd doesn't do that often!  can you guess what does she do? She cleans herself with water by dipping her beak in

Fun with feathers!

Assalamualykum... Khadijah here,  Today I'll be showing you a craft we both made using  Snowy & Custurd's feathers. From the time they came, we've been collecting feathers and didn't have any idea on what to use them for! There are multiple ideas on the internet about crafts to do with feathers, but we always like to create and invent our own stuff. So here's an easy and simple project we figured out and would like to share it with you all! So let's begin!                                                     You will need: 1. A pencil  2. A pair of scissors 3. A jar of washed and clean feathers. 4. Paper (you can use glitter paper as it has already glue in its backside, or use a normal colored paper ).                                                                Method: (1) Start by drawing two circles in the back of the paper. And remember, they both should be the same size. The size of the circle depends on how big

Assalamualykum! In this post, we're going to show you these Chicken journals we've been working on. have a look at them: The pink journal is Khadijah's and the green is mine. We journaled from the day they arrived (Day 1) until Day 140! "Celebrating the 140th day!" Each pocket is designed with their own feather plus a picture of them inside. Custurd's picture  Snowy's picture                             That's all for now, hope to see you again Inshallah. Assalamualykum.
