This recipe is great! I'm going to try making some right away but I was wondering if you have to keep them in the freezer until right before you use it. Can you take them out and put them a Ziploc or the fridge?

haha that's so cute! Someday i'll have to try that!

Hehe, is your turkey ever suprised that when the eggs hatch they are chicks not turkeys?

Thank you SO much for telling me this. A friend of mine just put in day old chicks and it worked for her but maybe she was just very lucky. I would be so sad if cute little baby chicks got killed because of me being stupid. Maybe i'll try getting some fertalized eggs then and see how that goes...

I have a Cochin bantam and a buff orpington that are currently broody. It's my first time with broody hens so I was actually happy when I realized they were broody (it's kind of funny seeing my tiny bantam growling and puffing herself up at me). However, I'm going on vacation in a few days and I...

Do you have any plans or drawings that you used to build this coop? It's beautiful!

This is my Silkie pullet, Effie. I'm planning on showing her this year. It will be my first time ever showing a chicken so I'm very excited. Could I get some critiques on her? I dont really know much about what a good silkie looks like.
