Good Afternoon BYC Heads! Don't forget your sunscreen it's a real heatwave! I've been just lovely on the hill today. My kids are even out, rolling and digging to there hearts content. Conan has been really sweet and made sure all his ladies knew how much he loved them, starting to think he is part Cocker Spaniel.
I'm officially Out of the worm growing, for now. Sometimes I forget I am not really able to do 100 things at once. I do remember Em said she gets them already.
I have also learned that Crocs have holes, just at the right spots to make you jump! Ha guess my stinky toes smelled yummy.
And Sandy you were right one of my girls told me her name today! " Shoelace", she's always hanging out next to my shoe! Love it!

started out gorgeous here.....saw THREE Robins this morning and to me, they are the harbingers of Spring. About an hour ago the "wicked wind" started so have to find the ear muffs. Still a beautiful day all in all

...What do I get? I can't keep track! If you're talking about worms, I can get just about any farmed worm at cost, yes. We also have those big night crawlers that come out of the ground here...

No none for sale yet - not sure when I will other than maybe pet quality ones here and there. I like to keep them until they are at least 6-8 months old. All the ones that age now I am keeping, and the few chicks I have now were born in Dec & Jan so still have some growing to do.

Was asking because I probably (LOL more like definitely) have one - maybe two- that are pet quality.

We are coming from Columbia, SC and I hope that I will be able to purchase a couple silkies. Do you think there will be sellers there?
