Gotchya, thanks for the tips! :) I'll look into it, I really like the idea. Does it depend on the situation or are you responsible for obtaining the eggs and then giving them to your hatchery or is that the hatcher's job? :)
I'd be willing to wait if that would be the best possible choice for the silkies. Right now we're ordering chickens from mypetchicken.com(not any silkies yet), but if we did order silkies the earliest they would get here is at the end of april, and I was thinking about waiting until the summer...
Because I want to be able to be around my chickens and interact with them far more. Call me crazy, but I've known people who have done/are doing it, and I like the idea and I love chickens so I think it'd be something for me too. :) Not keeping them in the back just taking their eggs and then...
I don't think my mother would want to care for them on her own while I'm away. Possibly if I could convince, do some extra chores and what not. :) If possible I would want to have them at my dads at least sometimes. Maybe since it's a limited time I could get the dogs to a point where they're...
Thanks so much! That's a great idea! We'll have my dad's backyard chickens by then that I can use! We get his in march, and we wouldn't get our Silkies until about may:)
The two dogs stay at my dad's house. The two silkies and I would be over at my dad's house 2-4 days a week, and the rest of the week they would be at my moms house which has no other pets. :)
Heeeelllo!! (: So we're getting chicks in march, which will be backyard cooped up chickens. And after that, I want to get 2 indoor silkies. But the problem is we have 2 dogs. A young border collie and a senior fox terrier, who is a bit 'different' from a head injury. Our border collie Bodhi(we...
Hey guys! I'm new here, americanvalkyrie directed me to this thread. I'm in Vegas! & so I was wondering if anyone knew of any locals selling silkie chicks?? :)
Naruto is my life(apart from school, chickens, new obsessions, and friends), :3 and I watch a lot of the beginnings of anime that I never actually finish. I just don't get into them enough. So I'm at the end of Naruto(waiting for more recent episodes), and I've watched Darker than Black, The...
Yay sounds good! :D I have a friend~ No, you're definitely not the only one C: Haha omg that is crazy ! Although I have to admit if I could get away with it I'd so do it too ;D
Mmhmm I sure did:D I. Love. Naruto. <3 So thankies:D
Okeeeeey I will!! We dont get them until April 23 though D: So don't forget to look then! But I'll post pictures of my dads leghorns and andalusian chicks who get here in march :D It's still like 3 months away t~t But oh well! Lots of time to build a coop and be prepared:D
