don't worry Pancake, i like mutts too, and with what i want to do, they would have to be mutts i think, Quiet roosters would definitely be easier that way...but i can't have any roosters where i live so my dream is on hold. good luck in the future. i got 3 silkie chicks with my broody that i...

thanks for the help, my momma and her three silkie chicks are doing great. sorry i don't have a pic, my son got my camera again.....what is a good age to move them all back outside? i was thinking a week or two, is that right? or should i wait longer? that is so cute XP had a similar...

she'll kinda purr at it but that's about it ant it has to really climb on her the chick gets really loud with little or no response.

my broody is cool to the touch? still really pale, i lifted her off the nest to check for mites and didn't see any... I don't think she's eating...i have been watering her with a dropper every few hours now but she won't stand up and when i put her on her feet after checking for mites she was...

She's getting a drink, i have a chick water-er in with her that i saw her use, but i guess she decided she didn't like it...i don't know how to cool her down farther she's inside with the air conditioning (it gets to about 78-80 ish) so unless i move her into the front room where there's a...

I just got my first egg from girls I'd rased from chicks, on of my EE's, and it's a gorgeous gray green . on a sadder note my dog got both of my blrw chicks and the silver sussex that i got for mothers day.

so funny at least know I know for sure that I'm definitely not an exception, i kept telling myself 8 or 9, I have 15. and still want more. So sorry about the Hudan I lost two buff laced Polish to something that sounds similar.

I've been freezing three liter bottles and putting them in with my girls when is gets to be 80. my RIR should be laying soon, the first pullet I've raised from a chick to lay I'm excited. silly, i am so jealous , they are so cute!
