    I have a broody Silkie , I'm so excited for something else to do all the work, and take care of chicks. I just hope that the other Silkie and the Cochin don't think they should follow the leader. 1 Broody at a time is good enough for me. They are filling up her nest for her though, they will...

    I have 2 black silkies and 1 splash silkie chick, with one egg left in the bator. I don't think it will hatch but I'm leaving it in just incase. It is an odd shaped egg so even when I set it I didn't think it would make it to hatching. So I had 8 chicks hatch before plus this 3... so thats 11...

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

    Out of my last 4 eggs I have 1 black silkie chick out and another chick pipped. I'm so excited. The first chick out of my flock! And will be the last pure bred chick out of my flock if nothing else hatches lol. My Silkie roos and I just didn't get along so they got the boot.

    Well I have 4 eggs on day 20, they are the last hope for a semi-successful hatch lol. I already have 1 pip , the last 4 eggs are out of my hens and I'm so excited to see what they look like! I'm not too worried though because my 2 silkies and my little cochin are giving me 12 eggs a week to...

    Oh one more thing. I took my little sister to the store and we got back at about 1:30 am, I always do a check on the chickens and ducks before I go in the house for the night. Or I make a point of going out before I go to bed. I'm walking to the shop and I hear ducks... in the run?? It is pitch...

    I was torn between "LOL that is so funny" and "OMG those cookies are beautiful!!!" I think someone told the chickies about the Easter bunny and now they are all in a rush to see him! Yep they are early birds! hee hee (OK I must be tired. I'm laughing at my own jokes and they...

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

    I had a chick in the bator that was stuck on his back so I opened it to get him out and put him under a light and the smell smacked me in the face. So I have a rotten egg, I also have 2 eggs that pipped. Do I leave it until they hatched or do I look for it now? I know I already opened it but it...

    So far I have 8 chicks! Not close to 40 at all... but maybe day 23 will bring in the numbers. Day 22 had 7 more chicks then day 21 lol. My temps have been known to drop when it gets down to 60 in the house at night, and in turn the bators drop a little. I hate running the AC durning the day and...
