It really does bring out the color.

I need to get one of those color charts with the numbers on them.

OHH baby!! Blue blue baaby!

My silkies are abysmally stupid and drenched. I have rescued them about 11 times today, but they keep thinking rain is not so bad...

My showgirl roosters are worried about the girls and trying to round them up into the coop, but they are just sitting there under the stoop ( stoop is mostly dry) Oh course the pacng is getting THEM all wet.

If the coop itself is dry, should the be ok, or am I going to have to blowdry a posse of chickens???

Congratulations!

That is a beautiful blue egg!

That is one of the reasons I added the Cree line to my flock

Normal chickens will be fine if they go into the coop to dry off at night.

Silkies?

I don't know about yours, but my Silkies loved to be blow dried. Maybe they are smarter than we think.

Ron the little silkie is doing a little better and when i got them out of the box i found a dominique chick who is still really weak i fear he may not live through the night :/

also my eggs are still living i candled them and i cant see the chicks moving anymore but i do still see some veins and the embryo isnt sloshing like last time. i havent been able to see into the EE egg due to i think the shell bring a dark green/blue i have seen some veins though just not the chick. so hopefully they will hatch and join my other chickies. im gonna candle them tonight (day 13) to make sure all is well i checked them several days ago and they were okat

Got my second brooder set up today. Now the baby chicks have more room, and they are out of my bedroom. It's a win, win. And I may have aquired 3 "mystery chicks" at the feed store today. I can't help it when they are a "mystery". I got 2 bantams, and one "top hat". I think one of the bantams is a mottled Cochin. Not sure about the other 2.

Nice brooder! I spy with my little eye..........a cockerel!

ok, so i think the duckies are starting. although it can take a while. the one egg i wasn't sure if it internally pipped or not. But through the window I see it moving a little. So i put the humidity at 60.
@chiqita … Are you excited??

You duck people need to cut it out. I already want ducks BADLY!
