I'm Glad you have some quails Satay they are cute. I'm afraid my only memory is dad breeding them to feed the snakes and my nan trying to save them LOL

Ash your chicks look strong and healthy ! too adorable Makes me want more.

Still no DUCKY ???? Hope she is alright.


Has anyone else had the below freezing freak weather ?? We had a nasty storm last night. But with the fore warning we had a tarp over the coop for added protection.

Hope no one else coped it......

No below freezin but shocking winds and a good amount of rain yeserday. Does anyone on here know someone or breeds themselves welsummers? I ordered a dozen thinking i would get a dark eggs layer like on the net, realizing not all lay real dark eggs but a variance of dark. Well the eggs that arrived today are really light. I would say the darkest egg is ligther than an australorp egg. Am i being a noodle and the aussie welsummers don't lay dark eggs or is something a miss here? Some of them look like young pullet eggs too and not proper layers.... bugger... I saw pictures of her stock but never thought to question the egg colour.

id be more careful in future, i have no idea what colour but eggs that have been laid to hatch should NOT be POL size.

Yes so true but when you buy over the net you take a gamble that people will do the right thing and not send pullet eggs.
