I assume it's downstate?

This year it'll either be in Rome or Harpursville.

MEGA long multi-quote

In other news. Egg production is so down now.... I collected 4 eggs today...lol mid summer I was getting on average 19 a day. Then I had 4 go broody and half of them started laying in secret spots I couldn't find and I was getting about a dozen a day. Then we started loosing daylight and I have been getting 7 or 8. Now 4.

Whenever my egg production drops I add "Rooster Booster" (thanks to Ravyn's advice) to the water and I swear it jumps right back up!

These started hatching last night 1st. and second out and I stayed up till after 2am loading these 180 in the incubator that's a lot to candle.

Its amazing how a egg looks good till you candle and find its cracked .So Ruby if your looking their cooking .

K! Lots of ! And you've got LOTS of eggs! Wow!

Long overdue photos of the Apple Dumpling Gang.... The darks: [COLOR=B42000] [/COLOR] Pocket Lint (Pockets, for short) [COLOR=B42000] [/COLOR] King Tut Phred (Now, this may well be another shot of King Tut, but then again the shot of King Tut might be just another shot of Phred - they look so cotton pickin' identical that it's hard to tell. The only way WE know is because Phred is a chicken chicken - afraid of everything - and King Tut acts like the world is Tut's!) Ruby The Lights: Smudge Q-Tip Dufus

Great pics! What's your boy:girl ratio? Blooie, you are right...they do still look very young. Another month or two and you'll see them really start maturing.

Lol I hear ya. We have 4 that are almost grown now and they still look to be changing everyday. They just keep getting fluffier lol. The ones we got from @RubyNala97 are only a few weeks now but I'm so excited to watch them grow and change.

How are they doing? How many did you get again?

Also, is anyone experienced with lavender silkies? The ones I hatched from those eggs that came from a person different from the seller are making me wonder if they are actually lavender. They could just be really light lavender, but one also has a dark spot of feathers on it like paint silkies do. I'll have to get some pictures.

I'm not familiar with the color but seeing as it's a project color there may be variations still..? I'd love to see pics. Also I need some solid blacks. May contact you in spring.

Of course, I used to not understand how a mom couldn't remember her kid's birth weight and time and all that and now I have to struggle to remember that...lol

Have a few more and it all starts blurring together!!

They taste fine....you just gotta get past how they look. See? https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/blooies-rockin-deviled-eggs

Ooohhh. Gonna try this. Bookmarked. But I have to have relish in deviled eggs to eat them (I'm weird). I'll just add that one ingredient and follow the rest to a tee!

My silkies took themselves in the coop to go to bed tonight for the first time ever!!! It only took how long? Every single night since they've been in the coop, I have had to pick them up and take them in. I was so excited to see them in there by themselves tonight. Maybe this drop in temp made them come to their senses.

Yay!! Has it continued? Mine did this once and I was so excited but then realized it was only that one time. :/

Mine aren't that smart. 29 degrees last night and they still stayed in a puddle in front of the run door. I'm more heartless - if they ain't going in with the rest of them then they can just stay there!

X2!!!!

Well not chicken related but we just found out we are pregnant with our 5th child. I must really love his lmao.

CONGRATULATIONS!! You are seriously nuts though!!
