    His beauty does come in handy for him quite a bit. I mean, how could anyone ever say no to this face? :love

    Pipd's Peeps!

    Checking in again for the weekend! It's feeling a lot more like fall out here these days! My test and competency this past week went okay. Pretty sure I aced the competency, but the test I feel oddly neutral about. I don't feel like I did bad, but I'm also not sure I did the best I could have...

    It's time for me to admit I have a problem...

    Love everyone's kitties :love :love :love Mine has been doing a lot of relaxing these days, too. In between his hard work of being a cat, of course 🤭 Oh, and defending his title as world's biggest goober 🤭 This, as you'll all certainly agree, is exhausting work. Exhausting! But...

    Pipd's Peeps!

    About time for another check in, I suppose! It's fall break today and tomorrow, so I have a little extra time to just veg. Obviously, I won't just be sitting around and doing nothing because I have tests and assignments still due later in the week, and more competencies coming up. Plus this is...

    Breeding silkied Cochin bantams to the Standard

    Another quick check-in just to share this picture I got of the eldest two red bander pullets from this year's hatches. Love their overall shape, but we definitely need to work on shorter / blunter beaks out of that coop. Either way, they're pretty darn cute :love

    Sorry for the lack of Casper these past several weeks, y'all! I explained in a bit more detail on my flock thread, but suffice it to say, school has been a lot lately! Here's a bit of Casper for your enjoyment! Nestled down on the bed :love Just a peek at the toe beans 🫘 Not to...

    Your kitties are so pretty :love I might just not be remembering because my brain has been very taxed with school lately, but have you ever mentioned this pretty lady's name? I can only remember Jo's name :oops:

    Pipd's Peeps!

    Hey, all! Sorry for the radio silence from my end! School has been a lot this past several weeks--tons of homework and a test almost every single week. That continues until fall break, the midway point of the semester (October 16-21 if I remember right), so I'll probably be pretty quiet again...

    Breeding silkied Cochin bantams to the Standard

    Sorry I haven't updated in a while! Things have been hectic ever since the semester started and it's been a lot to keep up with I just wanted to stop by and share a picture of one of the grow outs from this year who's showing a lot of potential already. :love Pretty sure she's a green bander...

    Double uropygial gland?

    I think this trait is more common than a lot of people think, honestly. Supposedly it's controlled by one of a hand full of genes that can impact the morphology of the uropygial gland, but my experience with it has been that it's not inherited as simply as I would expect for a monogenic trait...

    It's time for me to admit I have a problem...

    It's been a busy couple of weeks, so I only have a hand full of Casper pictures from just a couple events to share this visit, y'all! Most of them from one incident when he was being particularly adorable... This is sort of his corner of the living room, where we have a couple boxes, a...

    Pipd's Peeps!

    It about drove me nuts when I had pure Silkies and about drives me nuts with my Silkie mixes :th But I will say that Marka, the last Silkie hen I had, was an incredible mother, better than any other broody I've allowed to raise chicks. If only we could get this whole sexing eggs thing hammered...

    Pipd's Peeps!

    Well, it's been a week. Day one of class went smoothly. I got home, changed out of my scrubs, took a moment to relax, and then went out to let the chickens free-range and... Well, this happened. No idea how long it was stuck there, but that is a juvenile Red-tailed Hawk hanging from the...

    Pipd's Peeps!

    Glad to hear on ZuZu!! :yesss: My broody jail is finally empty this morning, knock on wood, but Opal, Ganymede, and a couple unnamed Cochins were in there last week. :rolleyes: Opal's already had her brood this year, no idea what she's thinking! I got her on a whim, but Chicha's definitely...

    Yeah, I love when cats sleep like that. It looks so uncomfortable being all crunched up and contorted, yet they seem awfully pleased with themselves for it anyway 🤭 :love

    I love seeing everyone's kitties :love Nothing more precious than a pampered cat. Speaking of pampered cats, here's a few of our Casper from the past couple weeks 🥰 Taking his naps seriously, as always 😊 Having a sit-down 🤭 He had his annual vet appointment just after my last post...

    Pipd's Peeps!

    Not much going on with the chickens these days. I've been laser focused on getting ready for classes to start tomorrow. Am I nervous? ...Maybe just a little. I do think we're going to lose Bucky. He's been having on-again off-again crop issues for the last week and a half, seemingly luck of the...

    Pipd's Peeps!

    Ugh, broodies!! :barnie I just had to throw FOUR hens into broody jail this morning, including your Ivy's look-alike, Ganymede, and miss Opal who has already reared a brood, fought practically everyone in the flock because she didn't want them even looking crossways at her babies to the point...
