Did TT leave town?

 

 

 

lol.png  She just moved into town!  They bought a house just a mile or so up the road from here and today we're going over to visit.   I'll keep you updated on my success at convincing Mr. TT! that they need chickens again.  Oh, the fence is amazing!  bow.gif  How is it working, especially with the more gifted fliers?

It took forever catching up with a week's worth of posts.   So much tragedy and excitement.  I loved the pics of the birds, the snake, the cake and the little Cooper too.  Yep, we all love our Flock Mistress, we're extra lucky that she's from AZ.   Finally, a BIG WELCOME to all the new people!

He loves grandma's bok-boks.

Could you essentially screen in the porch?  With some sort of doorway?

 

That was an idea I had as well. GMTA ( great minds think alike)  That would be more cost effective for sure. Will have to bring it up to hubby. I usually say to hubby. "I was thinking" and he says "Oh, Now what?" LOL 

 

 

 

My vote is for screening in the patio.  Your yard looks amazing!

Hey, does anyone have any bantam hens or ducks for sale? I lost another one of my bantams and now my hen/rooster ratio is even worse (4/4,) and my call drake is getting a bit lonely. I'm in Vail, and I'm OK with mixed breeds or pet quality birds.  Please send me a PM if you have anything! Thanks!

HI, all of those chicks look pure silkie, but what about the ones I got from you?  What are they mixed with?   I know you said they came from eggs from someone else.   Do you know the parentage?  Neither of them have any silkie look to them at all barnie.gif.  By the way, how is my little boy  love.gif  doing?  Also I was wondering, how BIG is he getting?   Sorry about Hawkeye. sad.png

The chicks you took home was mixes either with polish or I was told they would be Sizzles. Send me a picture of them. I have two that look polish all the way.

Have you picked out a name for your boy? He is doing great! I need to gbet another picture of him to send you.
