Arizona Chickens

[Smiles-N-Sunshine]

Hey, my first pair (of three) Texan Pioneer pigeons laid their first eggs!

Wingfield's CHER AMI is thinking, "Do these kids look like me?"

Those emu eggs decorate my kitchen. They are used for pretties and for chickie pictures.

I finally took the other emu egg out of the fridge. The change in temp made it crack, and now it is leaking all over my counter. The DH did not pull out the drill before he left this morning, like I asked, so perhaps I will just let it continue to leak.


Yes there are silkies in this batch of chickies. The eggs were shipped to me from Cammy, (Elite Silkies on BYC). It is the 3rd time I have gotten eggs from her, and they have ALWAYS had high hatch rates. First time I have EVER hatched 100%--nevermind they were SHIPPED eggs. Good Gravy.

Elite Silkies specializes in lavenders, and whites. She is one of those peeps who will drop $750 on a pair of show birds---which is really obvious when you get some of her eggs. Her silkies are poofy to the extreme! LOL!

Okay, that's it girl. Next show, you HAVE to show!

Good idea, Todd, thanks! Doesn't silicone get mushy in hot temps? I'm off to google silicone - with "safe search" turned on LOL

Nope, once dry silicone withstands great heat--far more than any your chickies can stand.

Turkeybreeder-

Had one of those craptastic packing jobs come through recently. PM the seller and see what they can do.
