Thank you, we think she is beautiful. We have turkens, too and think they are gorgeous and the nicest birds!
 
Have you ever been in a chicken show, and did you ever win anything? I will deffinately do it again. My favorite part was the auction after, and the raffle thing. I bid on and got a Capon, my two show Leghorns, and three Mottled Javas chicks

Well the turken is not mine it is actually my brothers, but we all share. It is my brothers favorite breed of chicken.

Sorry for not responding sooner, because of the time difference, it was way past my bedtime :)

I have been to a couple chicken shows but have never been entered in any. I purchased show silkies for my sons to show but somewhere along the way, my birds were infected with Marek's disease. Our dreams of showing, vanished :( Now all chicks that we buy must be vaccinated. It's a horrible disease.

Even with all that, we still love our chickens :)

That is very sad! I have a couple Silkies, and Silkie mixes. I used to have a really really mean rooster Silkie named chicken little, but are neighbors dog got out and got him. I was very sad even though he was mean.

At least we have three of his babies, and the rooster baby we named Chicken Little Junior, and he is a brat too LOL.

I hope our chickens never get Mareks disease. I heard that if you have a Turkey with the chickens they won't get Mareks disease.

I like this old man! LOL
 
I love that little man also :)

Thanks, sorry your neighbor didn't keep his dog under control. That makes me angry. I'm glad you have some of his babies, though. For some reason, that helps me when I know that I still have a little piece left.

I've heard about the turkeys, too but then I read a thread on here that someone with turkeys had a problem with Marek's, so I guess you just never know.

I just hope that I can get this disease under control. I'm tired of having funerals and burying chickens.
 
That makes me angry too!

I tried to attach a picture of chicken little, but it says I don't have permission. Do you know how?

I hope you get the disease under control. I hate having chicken funerals too! It is really sad!
