So this is dear Marble with Brandon. Countdown continues, day 9 on the hatching project!

Poor Marble was NOOOT happy at all when we pulled her off her eggs for Brandon's photo shoot. She took it like a champ though, sat in the hat and had her picture taken like a good girl. Then back on the eggs she went.

Gotta love these Silkies! love.gif

Boy have I gotten behind!

BarnGodess I KNOW what you mean! I have some that love the bath and all of them love the blow dryer. What cracks me up is

the "sideways Tim Conway" as I call it...they love the warmth but feel they need to move away so they go sideways in wee little steps! Too cute.

 Hawkeye glad you are okay! and Scared  - love your partridge! As usual, thanks for the education and entertainment!

BTW I went to my first show Saturday and there wasn't one white silkie!!! Poo!

He seemed quite taken with the lavender scented baby shampoo I was using in the bath - intended to relax us both. But the funniest part was with the blow dryer. He opened his wings for full coverage even though only his legs and the tips of his wings got wet. Also, he insisted on the full facial blow. He snuggled into his towel and preened as we worked. They really ARE quite silly birds. He's been running around the house singing ever since!! big_smile.png
