Talking about projects are we?? The DH will be taking DGD over to see her folks early next week. I'll have the entire place to myself!! Well, to myself and one dog, one cat and 27 chickens!!! My big project for while they're gone for a few days is to build the small coop for the babies...

Quote: Oh Julie, I'm so sorry. I know how hard it is to lose them so young. I think everyone here does as well. It hurts like heck. Try not to take it to hard. Sometimes these things just happen. Yeah, it sucks. But you have to keep moving forward and focus on the ones that remain. They need...

Quote: Love the updated "birthday" pics by the way, in your other thread. They're all looking so sweet and healthy! In looking at the closeup pics of the little silkied Am, it got me to wondering....Do ya'll think that they'll be cold hardy? Our winters up here in Eastern Washington can be...

Quote: So if it's a roo you could breed to Blue Wheaten Ameraucana or visa-versa.... These are some exotic EEs at this point but I love it. This thread could go on for YEARS! We can always hope! Soooo....18 of these nifty little critters so far! Do we have any kind of a break down of...

Awwww!!! How sweet is that?!?! A cute little chick playing with a little fuzzy butt!! Just keep a sharp eye on both. You know how babies love to put things in their mouth! So what's the total on these chicks now? Somebody please give me a count! I lost track.....not surprising considering...

Quote: Yaay!!! Come on little chickie!!!! You can do it! You can thrive!!!! With all of these good vibes directed at the wee one, is there any doubt that s/he wouldn't?

I've got a chick in the brooder right now that I sure wish I knew who mom and dad were. I think maybe Griffin got a few rounds in with one little hen from his former flock, cuz this little chick, I swear!, has Griffin written all over his/her little body!! It's the only one in the whole lot of...

Oh Donna...I'm so sorry to hear that you've lost the one. But relieved to hear that you're managed to save the other. Keeping everything crossed that the next few days will see a vast improvement in his/her condition! And I know you're doing every thing you can to assure that happens!

Quote: Hey Girl!! How about an update???

Quote: Oh I get it! So that's actually her "I'm sorry mommy, I'll be a good girl from now on" repentant look? What an Imp!!!

Quote: Woohoo Donna!!! And the eggs!!! Come on little babies!!! We can hardly wait to see ya!!! The nearly week old is looking mighty sweet!!! Is it just me, or does this new breed seem to have some of the gentlest eyes?

Quote: Yes!! Serrin has babies!! And Serrin is screaming at her obnoxious camera and uncooperative Photobucket account. And as soon as she has made it clear to each just who is the boss, she'll post pictures of the new wee babes!! Thanks for asking! Kathy, those precious little babies are...

Quote: No problem Germaine! You're certainly excused under the circumstances! They'll pretty much be a surprise for me as the eggs came from a neighbor up the road. She has a BR roo, a RIR roo, a Cornish/RIR roo and a Cornish/White Leghorn cross roo. The hens in the flock with the BR and...

Quote: You and me Donna!! We're due at the same time. If you hold my hand, I'll hold yours, and together maybe we can keep each others hands out of our respective incubators!! Though I admit, I think I'm more nervous for your hatch than mine,....mine being nothing more than garden variety...

That's what we're here for sweetie! To help each other over the rough spots. Glad to hear the little evicted chick is doing well, along with the others! Now, go get some sleep and let us know how they're doing in the morning. It's been a long day for you. You've certainly earned a good nights...

Quote: If I tried something like that....right then and there, the poor thing would've died! Nothing in the bra (if I had a bra! ) to keep it warm! S/he would've died of frostbite! Think president of the IBTC! So where is Donna with a report? Doesn't that woman know we're all waiting on...

Quote: Come on little guy/girl!! You can do it!! Even if your chicken momma doesn't want ya, the rest of us do!!!!! Keep us posted Germaine!! Inquiring minds (and nervous expectant chicken moms to be!) wanna know!!!

Quote: Wooohooo!! We can keep each other company sweetie! My little mutts are due starting Saturday morning/afternoon!

Quote: I'm so sorry you lost one of these precious little chicks! Hopefully the others will be just fine and by this time next year, all of those of you participating in the development of this new breed will have viable eggs coming out of your ears!! So sad, to come all this way, only to have...

Please don't take this the wrong way.....but when you spread their wings out like that and take a picture, it looks like they'll be facing a lifetime of "Bad Hair Days"! But, my oh my! They're going to be some of the most snugly little chickies the world has ever seen!!! The kind of chicken you...
