I’ve created a monster… meet Possum

[MamaBirds_Quail]

I have a quail son too he looks at me with so much love I haven't the heart to tell him I'm not a quail View attachment 3260604

My coonhound looks at me like this… I gave all his positive care tasks to my kids to try and offset his affection for me (now I only do baths! Nail trims! Vet visits! Medication! Mean mommy! While my kids do all the walks, playing, feeding, and treats) and it still hasn’t put a damper on his adoration

Poor guy!

That's hilarious and adorable

Still a weirdo at one month!

Possum— despite herself, at this point, you can see her trying to fight it— still loves a good “hand nap”

Does anyone have guesses on what brand of dilute she is? I think she might be Pearl fee + roux since I have a few autumn ambers from the same hatch/place, but I guess she could also be a fairly brown tint of silver also?

Here she is between a Pearl, and a Pansy Fee so you can see the color difference comparatively.

I am too! It’s very sweet, especially since we didn’t handle our first clutch enough and they really don’t like being near us
