    Show off your roosters

    A few pictures of my roosters. :) My Araucana roo, Antonio, with my blue Orp hen Violet. Serama roo, Cocoa. New Jersey Giant roo, Sultan. I'm not sure if he's just young or if his tail feathers were plucked a bit but I think he's going to be a very pretty boy. He wouldn't stand still...

    Mahonri's 3rd Annual, BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    Here's one of my babies, named Trinket. She (he?) fell asleep 2 nanoseconds after the picture, so I'm going to say this was a sleepy look, not the bebeh stink-eye. :)

    Mahonri's 3rd Annual, BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    My hatch is done. I ended up with 15 Silkies hatched of 20 eggs, but 5 chicks died soon after hatching. Ten adorable little fluffballs running around--they are really too cute.

    I just set eggs this morning 3-13-12 Has anyone else?

    I ended up with four chicks from the 8 eggs that I set. 2 light/coronation sussex, 1 lavender orp., and 1 blue orp. Here's a picture of my little ones this morning, all dry and fluffy (and all refusing to sit still or look at the camera!):

    This is what I was just wondering about. I want to take them out because they're crashing around and chirping so pitifully. They need to be loved on! lol I don't want to take them out before I should, though.

    I woke up to two Orpingtons hatching and two of the Sussex eggs have pipped. It looks like one lavender and one blue orpington so far. I can't wait to see the rest!

    Two of my lavender/blue orpington eggs have pipped so far. I can see the beak sticking out of one of them and it keeps chirping. I can't wait! :)

    Langshan Thread!!!

    This is my Langshan hen, who is such a sweetheart. My daughter named her Furry Foot. lol She has been the friendliest of my chickens since the beginning and is just now 5 months old. She's from a hatchery but since I don't show that doesn't matter to me. I love her. :)

    I just set eggs this morning 3-13-12 Has anyone else?

    I set 8 eggs on the 13th--4 from a lavender/blue Orpington pen and 4 from a coronation/light Sussex pen. I'm excited--first hatch in my first incubator (Genesis 1588). I've come a long way from the first chicks I got last October. lol

    Positive ID on Langshan and Marans?

    Quote: Yes, sorry I wasn't clear about that. The first two pics show the same barred (Marans?) chick, and the 3rd, 4th, and 5th, picture are all the same (assumed) Langshan chick. So the chick in the first two photos might be a male BR? That would mean one of my other chicks is the Marans...

    Positive ID on Langshan and Marans?

    Can anyone help? Are they old enough to ID?
