Oh did a bad thing today lol
Bought 8 quail from the animal auction so i can keep up with my sister
Definitely cute little things haha and quiet... think ill keep them around awhile
Mine was beyonce, then ended up being a rooster, so now jayz... hes a bit of an ass, for lack of a better word, and hes loud now, but hes a perfect little dude that protects his ladies and makes sure they get all the good food and even shows the new layers how to do it.. i do/dont regret it haha...
Couple of shots since i gave them roaming space while i trim down square footage to make the garage coop/winter space... enjoying the grass and the new bush lol i now have bush chickens
Hawk being out and about and showing her pretty colors... shes like blue white black speckles like paint on...
Hooefully... my soster sent me an amazon cheapy incubator, my guess is tonhatch more quail for her lol but also i just wanna know i can do it, cant afford thencrazy stiff but this has to work at least kinda, right? Lol
Well since those failed, i figured id hook it up fornthe whole cycle and see what happens..
Yesterday's lays...bwill only be excludong the tonky egg from this round... i just really wanna see the leghorns crossed with whatever jayz is lol everyone else osna bonus
White egg did not survive.. day 24 for it today so candled it... no movement.. floated it, no movement...
So egg-topsy... didnt absord the yolk or the rest... just gave up i guess... i hate trying...
Lol yea, they are all super floppy and i love it hahaha.. i am suprised at how clean the leghorns always are even with señor dirty-feet on their back all the time
One of the days the leghorns actually like me lol
Theyre alittle dirty cuz it rained yesterday and someone breeds with muddy feet.. not pointing fingers or anything
Trying to get all 9 eggs in the same shot but they never want to lay all of them if im waiting to snap pics lol so here is 7 and the easter egg they hate
Big Red got everything worked out
My rooster has been helping my ladies lay their first egg lately.. follows them in the box and scratches and squats lol
He also egg sings when they lay lol
JayZ and his legs lol
Scary Spice
Hen Stefani
Tonky wanting her close up
Secretary Not Sure
Hennifer
Big Red
Hawk, Hen, and Tinky on the roof
Eugene getting ready to lay
Not Sure waiting her turn
Got a new egg today... not sure who laid it yet.. will have to watch this weekend and see... also looks like Tonky laid a giant oval egg and Eugenes choco egg, of course the leghorns laid... they always lay lol
And thats how i got Barb, Teri, and Pepper (Barbeque, Teriyaki, and Lemon Peppee) became my first flock and the ladies used to be so cuddly and lovey til they went outside now they wont let me touch them.. except Teri cuz if im sitting in the run with them, shes the only one that jumps on my lap...
well the hoover hatchery papers said they were assorted layers but unspecified on what the mix of bords could be.. didnt take long to figure out haha.. out of all the chicks in that trough, she picked 3 she liked the best cuz they looked at her like they wanted to come home lol they were all...
Wife went to.work out with a friend and stopped by farm and home to get feed for the friends chickens and saw the babies lol so she comes home with 3 baboes to surprise with...
