These  guys were not happy getting dressed up to have their picture taken! The dark one in the corner looks like, if he'd had a gun, would have take a shot at the camera!!

This is the only decent picture, because they soon untied each others bows.

 



HILARIOUS!

Candling eggs? What's the best way to do this and what do I look for? What's a good sign and what's a bad sign? I have never done this before.
We're planning on hatcing some silkie eggs here at the farm sometime soon. They will be random colors out of some white and black hens, possibly gray and some sort of a partridge lookalike if those two girls are laying, not sure yet. Just pet quality, but we're excited. The hatching process will be a school project for one of our staff members autistic son, which makes it even more exciting. :D

I would like to try candling some of the eggs this time to make sure we get something for the young man. :) Eggs will be under a hen.

But for now we call "HER" Puffle...
