Power outage! Storm.

Power just came back on. Half an inch of rain and 10 inches of wind.

I emailed my LA Eloises breeder a picture of her and he was so upset that only one egg hatched that he insisted on sending me another batch! So here I go again next week!

That was very nice of him and great customer service! Hard to stop incubating eggs and hatching chicks, once you get started, so addicting!

What about Charlotte?

I’m so jealous! Only 6 of my 11 eggs from Paul hatched, 0 self blue. Ugh, at least I have a few from a different hatch. These babies will be beauties though! View attachment 2270916

Yes, the self blue are an elusive bird! What colors are the ones in the photo, looks like black and ?. They are gorgeous!

What about Charlotte?

I emailed her breeder in NC also and she was super sweet too! Said she would send me more in the spring if I just paid shipping! Charlotte seems to be doing well but, is so much smaller than Eloise...Eloise really might be a roo! So cool if I have a roo and a hen to breed! Jmns, Do you think it’s possible to nurse a hen back from Mareks? I took my friends hen in because she has to leave for a month and she has literally been kennel ridden for a little over a month now. We aren’t positive it was Mareks, her others haven’t been affected at all but, she can’t walk. She eats and drinks really well and turns herself around pretty good. Giving her all the good feed and poultry drench...any thoughts or advice. We don’t want to cull but, want to give her every chance we can to heal. She could have possibly been hurt by the rooster too...we just don’t know. I am literally doing chicken physical therapy with her and bringing her outside to keep her happy.

The black are a black split, the gray/yellow ones will be white.

Here’s one of my self blue’s. Pretty sure it’s a roo. We named his Vito

Gorgeous! My white silkies started out being buff/calico in color. I was suprised when they feathered out snow white! Vito is a roo, I see the three rows of his pea comb. He will be a stunner!
