I'm a sucker for partridge and penciled markings. It hasn't stopped me from adding all kinds of other things though, white is one that I don't a problem resisting.I like that! I started with black white and red so this year added mostly shades of brown with a little more white tossed in. The EEs and my hatch mostly turned up browns too. I always picked the turquoise/aqua marine crayon first It's still my favorite color
Look who got tired of being in the coop.
Chick Kindergarten lesson #1
wowooops, almost forgot the beautiful silver campines, who are the ones i set out to photograph in the first place!
anna -- notice the blue ears and feet!
elsa and anna together
not sure which one of them this is, but grabbing something delicious!
yes I had been wanting to go to one. I would of stuck around longer but my daughter was getting Cranky lol.It was nice meeting you today Jason, and your two children.
Although it was small, I managed to sell ALL my chicksI was selling them at give-away prices anyway so now I don't have to feed them. 26 less mouths to feed!
Although... I did bring two birds back home - they weren't my chicks...
I now have two female muscovy ducksJust can't pass up a good Blue... and she needed a friend (Black Pied).
Ah well.. it did say "trade".. so I traded the money I got from selling the chicks for the ducks! HAH!
. Kudos for composition! Adorable. I can rarely get my 3 to pose so I take lots of shots in hope of getting lucky. I can tell you have a knack for having camera ready. Look forward to updates as they grow.Look who got tired of being in the coop.

I wanted to go to one too. It was maybe 3 miles from me. But have you ever had one of those days that was busier than you ever thought it could be?
Awwww those are some cute pictures!!! Yay for a 100% hatch!just wanted to share pics of my first ever broody hatch...she went 4 for 4. The LG and I went 7 for 21 so it's broodies for me from now on
This was some funny right there, I don't care who ya are (said in Larry the cable Guys voice of course). Lolololol.How I see my SL Polish:How my SL Polish sees me:He once had a strawberry and was running with it, couldn't see where he was going...ran right into a wooden barrel.
Lol I would have loved to see that. Is it similar to a rain dance?
Isn't that an awful feeling? I thought I was the only one that stresses like that. It may not be the best way to go but an option for you short term maybe is to put him in the garage or even the coop with some sort of short box or crate over him until later in the morning. I was told ( it may not be accurate because I haven't had to try it yet) but if they can't stretch their neck out they can't crow......? Can anyone confirm that?Still looking for a good home for my little Golden Sebright Rooster; I swear the sound of roosters crowing in the morning didn't used to bother me, but now that I'm living in a densely populated area where roosters are illegal, as soon as he peeps at 6:30 am I'm fully awake and sweating, hoping the police won't come knocking. Anyway, I posted an ad on the Free/Rehoming thread, but I thought I'd post my rooster glamour shots here too. I did find one woman who was interested when he was still a chick, but she lives in Southern California and I'm going to have to make at least a 4.5 hour drive (one-way, so 9 total) for that drop-off. Argh blargh. I also worry that my 3 remaining tiny Sebright hens would get themselves into trouble with cats or hawks without the rooster to protect them, although they are pretty good at sticking to the shrubbery, and I can consider making them a properly fenced and covered run if it becomes more of an issue than it has been.
Gotta love those young guys that are nice to old chicks too!
So I have that same fear! It seems that my group of chickens, especially the boys like to get up on my leg and they freak me out a bit with how intently they look at me. One quick peck and I won't have an eyeball.If I sit outside to drink my tea in the am...which I like to do...Rose is on my chair/lap instantly she stares at my face and I get nervous because I think she's going to go all Alfred Hitchcock on my eyeballs. The look she has in this pic is the same one she gives when she is examining me up close...like three inches from my face. I have Rose Blanche and Dorothy...Blanche is my CA Grey. Ozzie and Harriet Lilly and Petunia and a bunch of other randomly named girls but those are my sets.
How many people were there and what did they all bring?
yes will be today lol as yesterday I did nothing.
I use all flock all the time. its 18% and good for both
