Thanks to all for the birthday wishes, it was indeed a good day. I feel honored to share a birthday with 2 distinguished gents - Ron and Elvis!

lots of rain here and getting colder. 1 to 2" of snow in the forecast for tonight

Go figure. Forecasters wrong again. No snow but everything is frozen solid

Adorable little puffies!

Japanese Coturnix... Jumbo and Golden.

I can't believe how fast quail grow... They have tripled in size in one week...Crazy!

Deb, I have three different colors? Does that mean three different kinds?

Yeah and after all the rain, everything is iced. Fell on my steps this morning - got down them fine, but coming back up didn't go so well. I'm waiting for it to get above freezing before I thaw the waterers - don't want to do it twice.

Yes, I'd have to go back and look at my chick/adult pics to show you what they'll look like. Or wait a month and they'll be adults and laying eggs themselves...................

OK, so how do you see it's someones birthday? I only know when someone says Happy Birthday......Happy Birthday Chooks!

Either the person mentions it's their bday or like in Chooklets case, someone else knew and wished her a happy birthday. Of course if you get organized (like I used to be), once someone mentions it, keep a list and I'd know then for next year.

I'm not organized anymore.

Kelly, I hope that you are ok, after your fall! Ouch! Falls hurt so much more, the older you get.

Laura, did you try giving your girl some electrolytes? I really like Life Lytes, seems to make a difference in times of stress.

Most of my chickens have access to grass. The ones that don't prefer alfalfa hay to pellets or cubes. Last summer, my Dellies were going through a flake a week.

Someone back in here mentioned chickens eating styrofoam and surviving. They were lucky. One of my Buckeye hens, that I rehomed to my grandson's house, died after eating styrofoam.
