Nothing wrong with being a svelte girl. Everyone can't be a Marylin Monroe!

Diana doing her best for fluffy butt Friday. She really just doesn’t have a very fluffy butt, but I appreciate the effort.

Some of the chicks, came out and got chased then went back in the coop cage. Hades held his own. They are in all in now I can't stay out there my back is out and hurts really bad.

That’s ok, they will get used to things

This old girl gave us quite the scare Tuesday. For the first time in her life she had seizures. Noticed the first one at about 3pm. They were not really violent at first, but then at 4:30 she had a bad one. Rushed her to the vet, and she kept having small ones until 2 am. Head to toe work-up, everything is clear and normal. She just turned 10 in September. Vet thinks they were due to age and she may periodically have them now or may never have another episode. If she starts having them frequently she will go on seizure meds but for now its just a wait and see. My last golden lived to be 12, I'm not ready to loose my Gracie girl just yet.

Both rose and pea combs are dominant over straight combs. However, pure rose comb crossed with pure pea comb can throw a walnut comb, and a walnut comb crossed with a straight comb will throw EITHER a rose OR a pea comb

So what sort of comb does Mr P have?
And if Marty (who is a silkie and I guess they have walnut combs..?), was to hatch eggs what would her chicks have?
