Let's see if I can even remember how to upload pics!

This gorgeous girl at 4.5 months laid her first egg yesterday. Kinda looks like a RC LB Leghorn! I love her coloring and her little crest.



This girl almost has a top-hat thing going on! Reminds me of one of Laree's from the past.



Here are three girls... top is a black Icelandic with a crest..., Middle one almost looks like a Golden Campine. bottom one is one of my favs but she is so skittish I couldn't get a good pic of her... but she's beautiful. Boston hatched her out and she has some amazing colors.


A blue Icelandic girl and a red pyle girl... at least I hope it's a girl! (pay no attention to the olive egger in the upper right hand corner)



Another group shot... Black crested, Golden crested, Blue and Golden Campine looking Icelandics.



Enough of Icelandics..

I need help. Is this white Ameraucana a boy or a girl. 5 months old.



The sole survivor of my SFHs NYD hatch... is it a boy or a girl?



And here are two that I bought to replace the other two that hatched out that died.
I'm thnking the light colored one is going to be a roo... but it's blind in one eye.



Just put more water in the coop. It only got up to 92 today WAHOO!

Think they are thirsty?



Can you see the gorgeous Red Sussex roo on the left that I'll be selling SOON. (He hasn't crowed yet but he's been breeding all of my W/BW Ameraucana girls.

I FINALLY TOOK PICS! Takes a holiday weekend I guess!



Here are pics of my the Red Sussex pair that I'll be putting on Craig's list today.... unless one of you want to buy them. He hasn't crowed yet but he's already breeding the hens. Hatched out on Dec. 10th.



Just started laying little pullet eggs!



Sorry, the Black Jersey Giant is a camera hog..

It's a glorious day in the last week of May; my Beauty Plums are beginning ripen!

The tree is now mature at five years and producing phenomenal numbers of fruits. I thinned out nearly 1000 fruits earlier this season when they were dime-sized and it's a good thing, the branches are so loaded, they're about to snap.

Wow those look great! I ended up getting a burgandy plum last month but it will be a few years before it produces anything. I also took your advice and got me the 2 cherry trees, can't wait for those to start producing!






We also picked the first ripe fig of the season, a giant specimen of White Kadota:
