They grow like crazy!

Sure do! (The chicks)

They'll be laying eggs before ya know it!

I'm hoping for about May.

Here is a picture of the 40 dollars cinnamon rollsView attachment 3709984

They are beautiful! I can see folks paying around $3/ea for those, or a little more. Does she sell them by the dozen? Does she have a bakery? I mean, how does she market that many?

Good morning Granny. I know you beat me up by an hour or more but I was awake. I looked out the window and there's my little Honey way out in the garden spot scratching away. Not a protecting rooster in sight. Got to have a talk with those boys... If anything happens to that kid it might be off with their heads.

I fell back asleep lol
Morning all

As soon as the boss gets up I got to do the chores. BTW 2 of the new chicks are from those big old Cornish Rock girls. Finally figured out why I had two chicks growing like poke weeds in a well fertilized garden. They are a cross between a White Giant roos and the roaster strain of those fast growing Cornish Rock Cross. One appears to be be a roo and the other a pullet. We also got some crosses from our Dark Cornish. Don't know which way or how but I know that those chipmunk kids with dark blue legs are not pure anything. Dark Cornish had yellow legs and and chipmunk feathers. I was after some meat mutts to breed something new with and I got them now.

Yaa...... glad you got what you were after! Thats a bit of luck thrown in there. You didnt know what eggs you were hatching right?

I knew the pens the eggs were from but when the hens free range you never know which pen the rooster part came from....

The two from the Cornish Cross hens have breasts on them already big enough to eat. I want to breed some that can be used like a heritage breed that doesn't drop dead from a heart attack and yet grow fast like the Cornish Cross do.

Got to start chores. I won't be around much until I get some things done today. It's going to be in the mid 60's today and I need several things done outside to get ready for meat processing tomorrow.
