I am now going to bring a pair of Welsummers hatched 9/1/08 to the swap....More of something soon to follow, I need more room

Kdcrws it was fun and you should go next time

 

[chickenzoo]

I would have liked some Japs.

...... but I need them like I need a hole in my head

Chickenzoo, never hurts to have more chickens.

I have to get some more black ones because my new little roo and his girlfriend are the odd couple and are not treated nice by everybody else. They are now in my classroom,

with the silkies and oegb. Lord what am I doin'

pretty soon ALL the chickens will be in the house, Guess we can sleep in the coop.

 

[chickenzoo]

I know the feeling, but pretty soon my chickens will have more sq footage then we do.

 

[Ferngully]

I think I will be bringing the 3 black chickens I got.

Some of the guesses are Jersey, astraulorp, game, can't really tell what they are. Sorry.

I need to stick with a couple of breeds to start with and then later as the chicken insanity grows, branch out.

The two that run as a couple, he/she is so sweet, pick him/her up, pet him/her and he/she falls fast asleep, The other on the other hand will need more handling. They are suppose to be a year old.

All of them were just sort of running amuck and not used to people.

The third is still young between 12 and 16 weeks.

 

[Three Cedars Silkies]

I'm bringing a nice bantam cochin splash cockerel. Below is a photo of him on 12/3/08. He's about 4 1/2 months old now.
