Finally caught up! I don't dare quote all the pages of messages though lol
So I'm in California and it's been raining everyday since I've been here. The 3 silkies from my avatar all turned out to be hens. One died last month, she must've been the one with biggest crest because she couldn't see her way to shelter from free ranging when it rained.
The other 3 are muddy so I doubt I'll take pics of them before I leave for Arizona on Saturday. I want to give them a bath but would need my mom to watch little one and she's always working.
She wanted some more layers so for her birthday I got her 3 chicks for her broody hen.
A guy on craigslist bought the Mcmurray layer assortment and selling them at $6 each and keeping 4 himself. That should more than pay for those 4, I think I saw 20ish chicks.
Pretty sure I picked out a Blue Laced Red Wyandotte, Gold Campine and a Dark Cornish. I know Cornish don't lay as much but the dark ones are pretty and I hope the other hens will make up for it.
I'll try to get a pic of the chicks before I fly off Saturday.
