Pennsylvania!! Unite!!

Good morning everyone! Happy Easter! I unveiled the chicks to my sister and she was so excited she screamed. When I handed her the serama and told her it was hers, she was soooo excited. It was adorable.

My little chick's yolk thing is shriveling up. He's pooped a few times, which means everything is alright inside. I tried to give him electrolyte water in a dropper, but he wouldn't take it. He's very weak and walks/stumbles with his wings outstretched to balance. He kept escaping the coffee mug so I just let him stay out in the brooder. He's too weak to eat or drink by himself though.

Bantam Brahmas.
They are gorgeous! Chippysmom, congratulations! I'm sure it has been a great learning experience for you! LittleMissPurdy, thanks for the helpful links on your signature. I just looked at the meat processing one. It was very informative and i will refer to it later! Happy Easter Everyone! Have to bake a chocolate cake this morning, made one last night, but it didn't turn out so well. I have made this cake before with success but this time I used a silicone baling dish. I wonder if that did it? Didn't seem to cook in the normal amount of time and really stuck to the pan, even after copious non stick spray.....hhmmmm...
 
My weekend visit with the captain and our trip to eBay has resulted in some eggs coming my way.....I am playing tetris as it is,,,,I it OK to stack 3 high??


Do not know why, but I am always drawn to the birds that I know nothing about...

6+ mahogany red leghorn,,,,I did not know these existed
8+ Sicilian buttercup,,, worried how winter hardy they can be
6 dutch hook bill....again they look different
4+ paint geese....hubby gonna be a little upset if they hatch.

This is on top of the 14 midget white Turkey eggs that got set on Friday, and last weekend I set 16 Muscovy, 16 white breeds and 30 bantam. Cochin out of my own pens,,, and 2 dozen mixes to a buddy at work, he says he will take what hatches from those 2 dozen...

Could be a very full brooder,,,,
Speaking of brooder, those 37 white rocks that hubby picked up last week are moving to the outside grow pen sometime today....I am worried that tsc will call ...he gave them his number and said call when you are ready to deal with what's left....




Anybody need any chicks...

Can anyone (galgo ). Tell m what I have to do with the geese eggs....gonna need help with these
