    Yet another "Guess the Silkie Gender" thread.......

    I know, I know, there are at least 20 silkie threads a day, but hey, what can I say. These babies are about 4 1/2 months old. None of them have obvious wattles or combs, but I think "Ginny" needs to be renamed for sure. "Hagrid" has always been slow to develop, and is even now smaller than...

    Our chicks finally have names!!!

    So, we got our new babies a week ago, and have been debating names. One Polish was named "Ron" immediately by my 9 year old Harry Potter obsessed son. So, naturally, I finally gave in and let the kids pick out corresponding names, hopefully all the boy names aren't a prediction ...

    Gift for the Impossible to buy for...........................

    I have a question, my niece is 3, yet she is developmentally slow. I was saving up to buy her an Innotab, basically it's a kids Ipad ($80). What I like about it is that it is a photo/video player and a MP3 player that has a slot for SD card. We live in VA, she is in FL, and I thought this was a...

    SIGH - This is what happens when you move........

    So, my big beautiful house way up in the mountain was perfect for our small flock of backyard hens. Then, we get the brilliant idea that our $300k mortgage is a bit much, and we should save up to go mortgage free. Have our eyes on a nice property, and sold our home, and are now renting a tiny...

    The coons are the winners!!!

    Who is the winner, the coons or my hubby???? Early this morning, my dog wakes me up barking, and I hear a commotion. I freak out cuz we've been having a couple black bears hauling our garbage for us (and doing a poor job at it, breaking down trash bins and leaving a mess), so I wake up...

    OK, just lie to me, alright? I really don't want Polka to be a roo :(

    So, 14 weeks ago my hubby surprised me with 6 wonderful EE pullets from the pullet bin. Well, I've been in denial for weeks now that my 2nd favorite is actually a roo. Polka is a good "boy", "he" is sooooooo pretty, and "he" is such a lover. So, I guess I need someone to really force me into...

    The garbage theif has been identified!!

    Well, after months of trying to figure it out, we first decided it was the neighbors rat dog, but they moved. Then we found some cat prints in the mud after they tore up my newly seeded pots. Of course, the resident Oppossum was seen in the area, but I think he "ran into" a local car and lost...

    Just a swingin!!!

    So, my 6 week EE's are such a blast!! I was setting up the 3 weeker's brooder, and had temporarily run the light cord over the EE brooder. Silly Polka jumps up there and starts swinging!!! She wouldn't get off, sang up a storm!!! The others were looking up at her, but wouldn't try the new "toy"...

    OK, I've been trying to figure out what Nugget is....... then I came across a pic of a Red Pyle, and I'm sure she looks darn close, what do you think?? Nugget Yes, those are my 4 week EEs in the background, and Nugget is the SAME SIZE!!! Tiny little thing! Thanks all!!! I'm thinking of...

    Thought they were EEs........ but think I'm wrong, can you help?

    My girls are all about a year old, and I got them from the "mixed" bin at TSC last year. We had one Cornish we gave away, and a roo that was simply gorgeous, but no roos for us We just "assumed" the standards were all EEs, but I'm wondering if I'm wrong. The 2 bantams I have no idea on either...

    TSC told my hubby the "Americana's" are alls "pullet"... updated pics

    So, hubby was sent to TSC 3 weeks ago to buy some chicken food, and surprised me with these 6 little cuties!!!! He was told they were all pullets , but not what breed. Of course, I called to check, and he got the "Americana's", which I know they are really EEs, and I'm fairly sure these were...
