Even with those chances though, who can resist? CAL ranch has some straight run bantams that were begging to be brought home when I went the other day. I called my hubby to say that even if it WAS a rooster, at least it would be a LITTLE rooster! lol. He wasnt impressed. Does anyone know what...

Jesus, Unfortunately its usually a waiting game. Hatcheries will vent sex them in the first day or two, but I wouldnt recommend trying it if they are more than a day old or if you've never done it before... it can really hurt the chicks. Some breeds you can tell by color what gender they are...

La Casa: Such a cute grandbaby! Congrats! I am so in LOVE with that name too. BluJems: Your baby goat is so sweet looking! Ive never seen a goat with that coloring! My husband always teases me, my 5 year life plan ends with "enough land for a goat" :) haha, true happiness We just finished...

Hey La Casa- For sweet PDZ check out this thread https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/621363/poop-board-convert-warning-graphic-gross-poop-pictures Its something that neutralizes smell and is usually used in horse stalls- Awesome stuff!

Quite the variety of plants going on this board! This is my first year doing a garden, and I am failing pretty miserably at it. I got impatient and started my seeds WAY too early, and they all were root bound by the time it warmed up enough outside. Im still trying to save a couple of tomato...

Hey Nancy! This website is GREAT for finding people in your area that have similar interests, Im sure you can find someone that would be either willing to split an order with you, or that can take whatever extra chickens you end up with. Welcome to BYC!

DH= Dear Husband

Oh this made me laugh so hard. Any time I start gestuting when we're discussing plans I get the evil-glare-of-death from my husband. He'll probably kill me if we get to Lowes only to find out that we need a board "This high" *holding hand out mid chest* :)

Oh my, I have SOO much nori left over, I never thought to put it in eggs! Fantastic!

Cynthia- love those baby pics! Sorry about the loss of the bigger one, that's so frusterating, but 7 out of 8 is amazing! I love the second pic of the sleeping chickie. I think Ive watched my girls sleeping almost as much as I watched my son when he was first born :) So relaxing after a rough day.

Quote: I completely agree with Ms Cynthia, way too many gorgeous birds! I just flooded my hubbys text inbox with chicken pics! lol. Those wheatens are amazing - BLUE EGGS! eeek! I need more room....

Hey SlvrPheonix, such a cute roo, I'm up in the West Valley area, did you need someone to hold him for you?

Chiko, Someone at my work yelled "Earthquake!" at 10:15, and then we all laughed and got back to work. Probably not the best thing to do, but if there IS ever an earthquake at my work then I'm pretty dead anyways- I work on the top floor of a glass building- yikes! Havent been on the thread the...

So funny, my son would DIE of happiness if we did those! They turned out great! Did you just use craft paint?

I checked out the video, very cool! I love how tidy it looks :) Although I dont think I would be able to resist "Americanizing" it and sprinkling toppings in between the layers. Cant wait to try it out, as soon as I finish off all these darn hardboiled easter eggs :/

Sphinx! Those baby ameraucanas are so adorable! I love mutt chickens, you never know what youre going to get :) So exciting. All your picks make me want to start with some more, my dinosaur looking teenage chickens arent as cute as they were before! Still love them to death though! More updates!

Sphinx- such a cute story- voted! You're in first right now!

I completely agree! Or maybe just vollenteer at the store during chick season? They really shouldnt be selling them if they cant take care of them....grrr.

La Casa-- That. Is. AMAZING. I am incrediably jealous. I love the "la casita" addition, those spoiled babies! So, weird question for everyone... Do you paint the inside of the coop? I have leftover paint from doing my cabinets, and thought it might be a good addition... chickens love a little...

Hey Snow! Such cute pics, I cant believe they're that small! And I thought my chickens were delicate! I love the doll house set up!
