    places to get silkies

Guess that means the Wisconsin International Show in Portage in September is a no go...? My two oldest are studying for the Avian Quiz Bowl that is normally held at...

    Oh don't know if I mentioned this or not... DD's two Silkie hens (one white, one partridge) are sitting on a huge clutch of Silkie and guinea eggs. They look rather silly, these two little bantam fuzzy girls sitting on a mountain of eggs! DD said yesterday one of the eggs was outside of the...

    Firstchic, sorry about your loss! It's hard, but unfortunately it does happen, despite our best efforts sometimes. I hope it's nothing contagious and that all the rest of your birds are alright. My oldest DD's first guinea keet that hatched didn't make it out of the shell completely and died...

    DH just texted me that we have a guinea hatching. Yeah! Our first guinea that tried to hatch didn't make it out of that tough shell. The guinea shells are super tough and hard to crack. I'll be headed home from work in just a bit to check it out. (I work 1/2 days on Fridays during the summer -...
