Impulse buys... am I right?

[JustAChickenLoverOverHere]

I wasn’t sure what thread to put this in so... yeah. Here we go! We were going to get two silkies- a paint pair... and we came out with three birds... the owner of the ranch said he had too many male ducks, so he gave us the first one he could catch for free. A Khaki Campbell. We named him Brownie. Anyways that’s all and thanks for listening to my rant. Here are some pics! Also, name suggestions for a male and female paint silkie would be greatly appreciated! Oh and a dog. His name is Astro. Whoops.

You're welcome.

Some people get confused between the two.

More pics of the silkies! Can anyone tell me why the hen is pecking my finger when I try to pet her? I think she might be broody, but I don’t know.

Those are male silkies. Sorry, but you got duped.

I hope I am not going too much off topic here, but may I ask what breed Astro is? He is adorable!

Wait did you just impulse buy a dog? How old is he? You're in for a SERIOUS shock if you just impulse bought a puppy with no prior dog experience.
