I've had better luck with this batch as far as poopy butts go. Last time I had a couple that I had to keep after for about a week. Not fun for me or the chicks! :)
Ok, How many BAD pictures does it to take to finally get a GOOD picture of your chickens? I must be doing it wrong! I can't keep these buggers still long enough to get decent pictures!
The picture problem is BYC's, not yours. Almost everyone is having problems.
Do you think she is blind in both eyes or just the one? Hopefully if it's just the one she'll adjust.
I hope she's doing better today. You can only do what you can do. I hold my breath every time I go in to the coop or down to the brooder hoping I don't have to deal with a catastrophe, although I know my time will come.
Good luck with her!
I think I finally figured it out. My Blue Ameraucana is actually Blue Splash and is the lighter chick between the two more yellowish chicks (golden buff and buff orpington). Genetics gives me a headache.... oy!
Any other deliveries yet?
I'm wondering now if my third feathered leg chick could be one of my olive eggers?
I'm not really sure which is which on the 3 light colored ones on the right (I know the two in the upper right corner are BSMs). One of the lighter ones has stripes. And the darker...
Those chicks are all so adorable! I have to admit I go for looks for more than production.
LURV the boots! I may have to get my sister, who works at Costco as a pharmacist, to get me a pair or two. :)
Yes, I did get a Blue Ameraucana and a Lavendar Orp! I think my MMM is a Black Copper Marans because I ordered 2 Blue Splash Marans (BSM) and have 3 chicks with feathered legs instead of just 2.
Can't wait to see the transformations.
still waiting...they were only an hour away from my post office at 6:45 in Pittsburgh this am and Amity doesn't have them and neither does Washington. Argh!
Got the SHIPPED email at 4 pm EST. I should have talked sister-in-law in to a road trip since they are only 3 hours away. Ah well. I should get the phone call around 8:10 EST tomorrow morning like last time.
I could not believe the selection! Added a Blue Americauna, a Buff Orpington and a Silver Laced Wyandotte. I think I might have to patch up the old coop!
