@NanaKat — Have you found the nest yet? I'm dying to know where she hid it.

I think you've got a great plan. Well done! I really like the idea of having the big girls see them right off the bat. Should make integrations nice and easy.

On another note, my feed store had Cream Brabanters yesterday, which I had never heard of. The gal googled them and I ended up bringing home five pullet chicks. I had literally (the day before) just taken the PCs and Hamburgs out of the brooder and moved them to the transition coop. I've got problems, man. In my defense, look at them!!!View attachment 1754789 View attachment 1754790 View attachment 1754793 View attachment 1754794 View attachment 1754795

Those are so cool!!! I've never heard of them either. Gotta go google them.

Does this link work for you? Someone posted a picture of a chick that's a chimera, only half frizzled. You can really see the difference in feathering between normal and frizzle!

It just took me to their profile page. It looks like it says group? And like it was a comment on a post? Is the group private? Usually with private groups you can’t share posts. But I did see the adorable puppies on her page

I get tears every time I click on that thread.
I don't know what is wrong with me today.

Wimp! That little yella is going to be a boy. A boy named Kiki Streetfood.

The adults are really neat looking. I can't wait til they grow up! Two of them are more silvery with less prominent beard/cheek poofs, two are very dark with very prominent beard/cheek poofs, and one is silvery with very prominent beard/cheek poofs. I think the two less bearded ones will likely not be as nice looking as the other three, but who knows?! I've never raised them before!

Bummer. Yeah, it's a group but I thought the privacy settings might let you see. You'll have to take my word for it that it's a freaky little thing.

You’re not supposed to have favorite children!!

If it’s a public group or public post maybe the link was just broken or something? But I bet!! Lol
