I had the most terrifying experience this week! I was out toddering about the yard and saw some buff coloured fluff under a bush. Finally found their newest stash spot… Or so I thought! The closer I got, the less like a full birb it looked. Panic filled me as I found buff fluff everywhere! We...
Let’s all cross our fingers for little one, mama abandoned the last egg and I was so sure it was dead 😭 It’s been such a busy week and I had a horrible migraine, so I forgot to check on the pipped egg later this afternoon. Tucked everyone in and saw it hadn’t hatched, grabbed it and the other...
Not sure which spot it goes best in, so y’all will get both 🤪 One of the silkies is hatching tonight! Two of them have been cobrooding in a bin and then the Barnevelder decided she needed that spot… Luckily three birds in one of those storage tubs didn’t squash the eggs I’ve been stressing over...
Ok, the broody situation is getting out of hand 😂 I have EIGHT hens thinking they need babies! Those are just the commuted ones too… A few have sat for a few days and decided it was not for them. My silkies and banty Cochin have been given eggs, but I’m not sure if it was a good idea. They’d...
Thanks all 💕 It’s easier on the heart when you can share with people who understand. Y’all are always so kind! I don’t have to worry about cruel comments when I see people needing support here
This has been the worst day ever. I am so mad at myself and we’re just crushed. I had an appointment out of town and put the box with Poofy/Bluffy and the poorly shipped chick in the washroom so the dogs couldn’t get them. The GFCI tripped and we arrived home to no lamps on. I thought they were...
Another year, another set of my favourite Easter pics! This little basket from my very first Easter is my favourite for highlighting these lil cheepers. Here’s my Poff Poff 😍
We kept one blue silkie chick and I think there’s still at least one black bopping around the brooder as well. Little bean snuggled in my hoodie for about an hour while I was knitting 😍 Such a dear little one! It’s going to be a roo, I just know it
We cuddled a handful of them before sending...
Someone’s broodyyyyyy, she sounds like a very angry cotton puff 😂 Of course she wants the favourite nest box… But at least the eggs won’t freeze with her warming them!
