Oh, I so remember the boys doing such things. Now we go out to eat and they sit and tell stories of their "misadventures' - it was bad enough to know the things that happened at home but there was a whole 'nother side. They tell a story about riding their bikes to the river where they would tie a rope to a tree and then to the bike. Then pedal really fast so they would jump their bikes off the bank into the river - WHERE THERE WAS QUICKSAND! The bike would be jerked back by the rope and they would go flying out into the quicksand. The goal was to see how deep they could sink. OMG! It was a good thing I didn't know about it at the time or I would have killed them - LOL! Now I see my granddaughter and how totally different she is.Gigi, the boy is good. We have to keep telling him to stop rough housing. LOL, he is so totally a boy! AND this morning Jace informed me that he knocked a tooth loose in the process of their horsing around yesterday. And it is LOOSE. I was sure it was an adult tooth, but he is swearing that he hasn't lost any of his top teeth, and my mom says that he's only lost the bottoms also. LOL, how sad am I that I can't remember which teeth he's lost!
Looky looky...
Now, that was really weird that the first four came out small... Anyway, heads and wing of the three chicks that Skatter is raising right now. They are at least 1/2 faverolle... I Think the top two are boys... Also that they are 3/4 faverolle and 1/4 sussex or lt brahma...
I love my lt brahmas. I am really getting the bug with all these beautiful chicken pictures. So here's a somewhat silly question...can you put an apron or something on hens that prevent roosters from impregnating them? I'd like to hatch some eggs but DH doesn't want roosters but if they weren't creating MORE roosters then maybe I could do a hatch??? Probably wishful thinking.
