Chickens I Want!

Oh my goodness. That mama roo is so beautiful! I bet the picasso chicks are going to grow up to be beautiful like their mama too. They are already adorable at such a young age. You selling?

Thanks! I just love them, that's why I was so excited to be having more! Unfortunately only the two hatched. Three actually but I lost one. I'm hoping they have another batch soon tho! I was so looking forward to more of them. I just love how tiny they are!
If I thought some people would want them I'd love to sell some when they have another batch! I never thought that anyone would want mixed breed banties tho so it never occured to me. I bought my last batch of LF chicks with the intention of breeding and selling but lost the ones I needed for breeding! I'd gotten some mottled houdans and salmon faverolles because there just isn't any around here but lost all the houdans and the the two roos for my faverolles. I can't get more because of the minimum order so I'm pretty bummed. I have a silver spangled hamburg chick that might be a roo but I just can't figure out if it's a he or she. I think if it is it'd really make for some beautiful picasso chicks when it gets old enough to breed!
Everyone is always trying to get rid of roos and now I actually need one! LOL

Is it bad that i have 3 Columbian Wyandotte Pullets

, that are not near as friendly as my other 10 birds, so now I want to rehome them? or am I weird?

I want to rehome them for 2 reasons:
1. All my chickens are extremely friendly, they either walk up to me or I can easily grab one and not have to chase it around the yard like a crazy lady. Except these 3 Columbian Wyandottes

. (Keep in mind all my chickens right now are just Pets, Not showing yet)

2. My DH

has advised me that my chicken addiction is getting out of control. (I only 13!

) and I am not allowed to have anymore chickens. So..... In order to get more I need to rehome a few.

Is this being a bad chicken mother?

depending upon ur charge and the shipping charge I would definitly be interested in Picasso Chicks. I think one of the best parts of chickens is guessing what they will look like as they feather out. Plus if you take two different breeds and breed the good qualities into a new breed, then that just makes Picasso Chicks better. They all came from some general breed right?....

Well at first I thought they were Dutch Bantams, but I asked around here on BYC and someone told me they looked more like Old English Game Bantams but their colors were all wrong. So I don't know what they are! I figured if the parents are mixed colors the chicks could be the same, picasso chickens. LOL. I don't care what they are I just love them! I'll have to figure out what goes into shipping some chicks and make some plans for the next batch. I'll let you know when they go broody again.

And your not a bad chicken mother! Sometimes when you've got a limit you have to play favorites! At least your trying to find them a home, most people would just put them in the freezer to make room for new chickens!

oh no no no, these are not to be eaten! I have trouble eaten chicken at any time and from any where now.
