California - Northern






This is Kennedy (what we call her rather than saying that canadian gosling- just easier for the kids when they need to report), the wild Canadian gosling. She just randomly swims around with the big ducks and geese. But she really likes being with my goslings the most. I keep my distance. We have Canadian geese that come to our pond frequently so I am hopinggggg that when she gets her feathers they will pick her up. Even the wild geese know where the darn duck food is. Stinkers! LOL

And I swear we have all the 'luck'. We get weird chicken problems. Wild ducklings and now goslings...we are like a magnet for things!

I have a question for silkie people, well maybe silkie owners is more correct.

One of my 4-Hers got a couple of silkie chicks. This weekend she noticed that 1 of them is missing the fifth toe on one foot. Is it a defect or a DQ? I'm guessing a DQ but not sure since the other foot has all five toes.
 
Ah, but the Banana Slug is the mascot for U.C. Santa Cruz!


...probably one of the strangest mascots on record.....
I agree! My DH works for UC Santa Cruz and he told me that the students chose that for their mascot. It's a good thing that they don't have a football team.

That is a beautiful group there. Keep posting their pictures as they grow, I love watching them change.
 
Not really top secret, I think I've mentioned it before. You mean you guys don't keep track of what I'm doing? And wait on pins and needles for the result? :lau The cross is a golden campine over a white leghorn. Sons are freezer birds and daughters are bred back to their GC fathers. I'm trying to create my own line of Chamois Campines :love I couldn't find a good quality white leghorn pullet/hen, so had to get chicks and grow them out. I ended up with four WL girls (and three roos I'll be able to put back over them for show quality WL now too). They only started to lay about a month ago. Chamois campines
WOW Deb! Gorgeous...
 
I figured I would say hi...  

I would definitely say I am in Northern California, and more specifically the Bay Area.  The fuzzy line is whether I'm in South Bay or Peninsula, being in Sunnyvale at the edge of Mountain View...

My husband and I grew up in Cupertino/ Los gatos... Relocated to South Lake Tahoe .

Welcome!
