Oh, and Lukka's broody.

Now I have to choose who gets the new digs.

yeah, me too! What the heck is she saying, "auditor?"

Is that what "one who auditions" is called?
I thought it would be an auditioner. Heck, what do I know.

A Saturday pic of Vindur... standing next to a Wheaten Marans roo...

And a Peacock that found it's way to our back yard on Saturday... real eye candy....

Mary, if you are going to have Emu's... you've got to have some guineas and peafowl... with all that land....

Oh WOW, Mahonri ..... Vindur is really really lookin' great! Gorgeous, in fact!

We had a peacock at our place in Iowa one year. Never did figure out where it came from. It kept coming back for food each day. Beautiful things, aren't they?!

Can't wait to see what I get out of my two white crested pullets when they start laying....

Vindur has the coloring of my Icelandic/EE mix, Stella the Gypsy chicken. Yesterday we saw her walking down the road in back of our house then an hour later she was in the front yard. I guess she originally flew over the fence to join our flock and she can come and go as she pleases. Besides I can't keep her in! I just hope she has weighed the benefits and rewards against the dangers.

Send me that peacock! No never mind, I don't have the fencing for peacocks or guineas. I would love guineas for tick control but they fly over fences too easily.

Plus, they are noisy.

p.s. I have to go to bed before I make another typo.

You are cross-breeding Icelandics?​

Lisa, If you go to page one and read the very first post, The Warden (Mary), tells the story of how she got interested in Icelandics because of Stella, the Icelandic/EE cross that flew into her yard. So, no, she isn't cross-breeding.

Lesson learned: Do not read previous nights Icelandic posts with a mouthful of coffee...

Mary, Just got done with breakfast, call it fertility testing, had 4 guinea eggs and they are fertile, could send some guinea eggs back to you, they would hang around better hatched at your place!!!
