Yay, I'm so happy for you! Congrats on getting to keep them all! I'm very proud of you having done all what you did to get to keep them! Besides the fact that it helps all backyard chicken keepers. I love your silkies' pictures! I have 4 silkies, hoping they are all hens...it's wait and see what they are...
Big hug for all your great work!

good for you


hatch some out and give em free to the neighbours just to annoy the complainant

I would do that, infact I hatched 60 chicks and would happily give em out if I was in your position



btw is it possible to get a scan of the newspaper

 

[sandmbaker]

There is an online newspaper version but they only covered the part about my sons goat I guess the chickens weren't a big deal for them. I will try to get a scan of the other newspaper where it talks about them.
