Cant put eggs in incubator because I dont really want to take the chance on looseing the silkie eggs and getting nothing so waiting for one of my broody hens to sit (Only have 2 but they have never sat at my house before) hu.gif *sigh* idunno.gif

Ameraucanas are so awesome! They are beautiful, sweet, and amazing :)

I am a young, proud owner of my own Ducks, Chickens, Turkeys, and Geese :)

RIP One of my first hens named Pickled. She was a Red Sexlink. Past on Jan-24-2013

Oh my gosh! Click this! NOW! This is totally CRAZY! (Click to show)
