Well, it's not like you did it to her on purpose, Alaskan... maybe offer her a discount on another try?

Didn't have much grow in the garden this year. All was overtaken by weeds and water. But we do have these! I think there are 5 good sized ones out there.

1st day of school. I have maybe 5 minutes before DD gets up and starts getting ready. Have had very little time around here & just realized last night that I didn't get her new shoes....

She has so many hand-me-downs (thankfully!) that all I bought was on the school supply list. We'll get her shoes this weekend

In case u missed the broody chick pics jem


Sucks cause she is a better layer then the leghorns. First to lay, laid all subzero winter and is the one with the olive eggs. Going to be interesting to see what a cross with her a a welsumer will bring for egg color.

straight run takes your own chances

True... was just a suggestion as a way for Alaskan to feel less guilty maybe...

I think most of my SandHill chicks are cockerel's. Three out of eight sussex look to be pullets. And three out of nine giants. Not sure what the langshan is yet.

btw omgosh you guys are sooo bad all these cute cute cute baby chick pictures!!! and violet is broody and just give me an excuse to see if she will sit and hatch em! I started collecting a couple eggs today and will get a couple more tomorrow.... @RavynFallen @BriardChickens @minihorse927 enablers

You are welcome!

better get that incubator going unless you want a winter hatch

huge to me, 5 or 6 inches long. I really don't know how big they get.

what is it?

I liked all of the posts!

My comment.... I sure feel bad

i sold a first time chicken owner 5 straight run chicks... She posted some photos yesterday.....

I think they are 4 boys and 1 girl double

Dang, but that's what you risk straight run, my first were 3/3...then one of the cockerels got killed by the other 2 so the odds became a bit better and I added some more pullets...

@BriardChickens, it's a praying mantis

Ah, I thought so! Can you tell we don't have any here

however I have seen them for sale at the reptile museum once in a while. So people keep them as pets ...
