LOL, My dog is like that, anything that comes in the house that is a baby, she thinks is HERS!! when the chicks were hatching she laid right next to that brooder- for hours!! She is hilarious!

Why the no banty policy? I love my bantams!!!! My DH has a no muscovy rule- he can't handle the warty looking faces

Quote: I however am the 'raiser' of the animals, and I have a no more duck at all rule- OMG, they are a lot of work- baby wise. If you look back in the pics for this thread you will see a 2 man tent- that was my ducky brooder for a couple months-
I have to get another hen duck for in there, as there is only one, and my drake is very frisky......
But after that other hen, I am done- no more baby yuuuucks!!

I may get into quail- not sure yet, i have to get all my pens and coops built first because the chickens were her first....LOL

Chicknfun,

I love the yellow chick with the fluffy head... CUTE!

Also, are the bones of a silky really black? The bones? So odd, I have been reading that in some of the chicken breed info, and keep wondering what it would look like, to have a black skinned bird on the table, and to chew on the drum stick and find it was black too.

All of the other animals I have eaten had white bones...wonder how a silkie ended up with black ones.


Lilmynx,

Minne-SNOW-ta, huh? You and I can complain and whine together all winter long, . Or, maybe you love all that winter stuff, and then you will just have to listen to me whine. I like to whine and complain...makes me happy.
