grannys gone and done it

[Granny Hatchet]

gee Twist, your house sounds just like mine right now. paper and poop everywhere. no one will let me swat them with the paper and I cant adopt them out in 8 weeks. jessshan is a man and yes, he is making the bator for me.

Soo, took my daughter w/ me to TSC yesterday to pick up some cracked corn. I really dont know what i was thinking. I cant pick up 50lbs. and neither can she. I told her hold the buggy and I would pull the bag down and let it fall on the buggy. so she held it and I pulled I seen it falling where i wanted it to and I thought for a brief second job well done. Until my dd screams AAHHH, there goes one of my ovaries !! Top of her lungs. I froze and stared at her as she stared at me and then we both started cracking up and could not stop. we had to leave the store. Birth control at its finest. Plan on taking her husband with me next time.

I asked this in another thread, but I'm curious about how y'all would answer too.

So if you guys were starting a chicken program with a focus on education, what breeds would you use? I already have two australorp mixes and two orpingtons. I'm thinking of EEs for egg diversity, and maybe silkies. I've even tried to figure out how to get hatches rotating so I could be hatching every week, during the summer, for the kids to see and selling the chicks at $1-2 just to offset feed a bit. But that's not a 2015 plan.

So EEs and silkies. Anything else cool? Maybe a jersey giant and a serama?

I think Jg and serama is a great Idea, show the diversity in the chicken. big, small, egg color and maybe Feather color? you have the feather type. No way you can show everything unless you bring a flip book. LOL

I think I like sundays. dd and all but one of the children are off to church. dad and big brother are sleeping. and yes, I still have the cartoons on. just because i cant find the remotes. At least it is road runner and not some talking veggies. or bubble gum talking heads? what the heck happened to cartoons since i have been gone? I have never seen such a mess and they dont care what they say either. I wont go into that but some of them should be rated a little stronger then they are.
