And this cutie was hatched from eggs from chick-among-us. She's an Ameracuana, hopefully a silkied Ameraucana.

Adorable!!!! I'm so nervous. Today is day 21 and I have had quite a few chicks hatch out. I put 6/8 viable eggs from crfarm into lockdown but no pips yet.

Why does hatch have to be so stressful?!?!?!?

ATTENTION!!!

If anyone would like to go half on a pair of Partridge Barthuhners on RBA please PM me. And please be serious about it!!!

I WISH!!!!!

We visited Yellowstone in 2009 and I'd love to go back again and visit you while there.........but there are a few (actually quite a few) other places we have never been yet so they will come first. If a second trip is ever possible, I'll be contacting you!!
A pic of it's beauty......if you've never been, find a way to go, it is worth it.




Oh yeah, that's part of why I love living here, it is BEEutiful=)

I received two boxes of eggs today. One was from DMRippy, the other from Dick Horstman. I really should have taken pictures so you could share in the humor, but the eggs from Horstman Poultry were in a standard egg carton and wrapped in newspaper. Some broken.

Donna's eggs--were packed like Fort Knox--bubble wrapped, taped together in rows in the correct position, padded between rows with styrofoam, packed with newspaper and styrofoam!

I just stood staring at the differences in packing...laughing my head off.

It is obvious who puts forth effort to make sure their eggs arrive intact.

DM does an awesome job on packing, that is FOR SURE!!

I have a question...what do you do when your birds get muddy? Mine are a muddy mess now that the snow is melting. There run is bad and I am not sure what to do to get it cleaned and less muddy...

I use straw in my runs when it gets muddy, works great, then I throw it in the compost bins=)


SOO many cute chick pics!!!

Chiquita... congrats on those Bresse!!

Krafty, COF and Hurley... nice logos!!! I would love to be working on one, but don't feel like my birds are quite ready for the "Big Leagues", lol...

I'm sorry my posts are so long.. I have to scan through and comment, I usually only have time to get on once a day or every other day right now...

BUT... my FBCM's have started laying!!!!!!!!!!! And so did one of my Ameracaunas.... Yay!!

Good morning! Where did the weekend go???

Not sure but I feel it in my back, arms, legs. Got a lot done but not enough sleep.

Livestock is fed. Off to work I go. Sigh.
