Honesty time people....

[Cornychick]

Ok. It's that time of year. We all know we have a common addiction....the love of fuzzy butts. We can't wait for babies when it's warm outside, so we order from our catalogs, order eggs online to hatch or stalk the local farm supply stores. How many babies do you have in your house right now under lights? I will go first:
Hi
My name is Cornychick
I am addicted to fuzzybutts
I have in my dinning room:
1 baby goose
8 ducklings
9 four day old partridge rocks
70 2 week old bantam chicks
12 eggs cooking in the bator

Let's see...in my guest-room there is

a 9 week old Americauna chick
3 silkie chicks in a wading pool
a white banty hen with purple feet recovering frompecked areas

And outside,I have a fat assed rooster that eats out of the bird feeder and dumps the sunflowers to the ground so the hens can get them. They haven't eaten checken feed in a week. Can you blame them?

Too cold yet. But expecting 15 ISA's, 6 RIW, and 4 RIR around April 1.

3 6-week-old Ameraucanas in my laundry room
25 eggs in the incubator due March 5th.

Wow. I had to read all three posts before mine before I realized that I had to be honest, too. Was in denial a little there.

34 six week old chicks out on the north (what was once lawn). I'll have to re-sod it!

I have no babies inside at the moment but am yearning to get some! I still have an adolescent banty pullet out in the coop with her mom and 10 other banty-X pullets that were hatched this fall/winter, 7 banty Cochin-X roos, 1 Silver Laced Wyandotte hen, 2 Black Australorp hens, 1 Buff Orpington hen and 1 White Rock hen - Oh, and my BO rescue drake that thinks he's a chicken (I would like to get him some pals of his own species this spring). I don't NEED any more animals of any kind, but aside from wanting more chicks I'm fantasizing about getting a family milk cow. I also have 4 Quarter Horses, 15 Nigerian Dwarf goats, 2 dogs, 4 cats, a turtle, some tropical fish, 3 kids and 3 grandkids at home and 1 very mystified husband. I'm dreaming of Araucanas, Barred Rocks and RIRs for starters, and maybe a few exotic chicks. I would like to have some Toulouse geese too, but for now I'm trying to be content with the Canada geese that come to visit the seasonal pond in our little pasture. Yes, I'm definitely a fuzzy- and furry-butt addict!

I'm guessing about forty-ish in my bedroom. Just hatched out a bunch this weekend. I didn't make a final count. There are still a few drying in the incubator, seveal in the "newly hatched" patented cardboard box and paper towel floor, hanging light brooder. Last week's chicks got bumped to a cage this evening. They peeped a while and settled down. It is dark, so they don't know they are in there with no food or water. I didn't want anyone to get wet or chilled if they bumbled around in the dark in their new cage.
