Thanks Carrie I have hatched some really great splash this year. I love the look of them but still may downsize to three colors by next year.

If you decide to sell your splash stock PLEASE let me know. I would love them.

As always Julie your silkies are STUNNING.

Thanks Adam, I will keep that in mind.
I am keeping some of my whites on wire because I am showing them in Oct and it will save a lot of scrubbing and bluing to get those feet white again. The blue wash up pretty easy along with the blacks. Some of the others I have on wire are just still juvies and they have plenty of room as of yet. I keep them like that sometimes till I make up my mind which ones stay. Also, with as much rain as we have gotten so far to day it keeps the young ones safe and dry. It is a mess out in the pens. I had to hold on to the wire to keep from eating mud.

Those are very nice pictures julie. Now I am even more sad that none of my eggs made it that I got from you. Darn Post Office. But if you come in Oct. i will definitely buy some from you or we can trade if i get any light blues to hatch in the next month. I have at least one right now hatched out but have not gotten a close look at the feet and all. Will let you know if it is a keeper ok?

They are gorgeous! What age are your buffs? They are filling out so nice. Mine are about 8 weeks now, and not so well filled out. Then again, yours may be older.... but the buffs are a gorgeous color, I see why you like them!

(Chickens are funny to watch being bathed though!

Those are some good looking buffs. Where'd your original breeding stock come from?
