I am guessing they are close to 3 months old here. Yes Chinese are very small and lean. The dewlap Toulouse are a lot bigger than the regular Toulouse though I may try to get a pic of mine together.

do the chinese come in a version with no facial furnishings?

 
Anything good?

today was italian
-tortellinis in a red sauce with grilled zuchini, summer squash sweet onions, 
-ziti tossed in a chese/butter/garlic
-garlic bread
-marinara

normal salad bar
dessert was lady fingers with a cannoli-filling type topping with orange zest drizzled with an orange liquer

Nope all come with the knobs but the aren't that bad. All of that sounds delicious what's for supper?

The knobs really don't affect their appearance in a negative way they are actually quite beautiful.
Well lunch sounded really good. You will have to let us know what dinner was.

I am banging my head trying to decide the best way to group my hens and roosters, and make my desires and available coops fit.

Me, too - I tried to sketch it all out on paper last night. I've been slowly working to reduce the complexity - I have no justification for more chickens/breeds, since I don't sell chicks or hatching eggs. But I still have a ways to go...

And last but not least.

That is CRAZY cute!!! I'm surprised Banti's head didn't explode on the spot!!!

good luck with that, tell me when you figure it out.... we should get together with coffee, pen and paper, oh make that pencil and a breeders list of all breeds

Maybe we should schedule a chat on here for helping each other to figure out the best breeding set ups, esp when some of us do the mixed stuff for meaties and huge layers etc.

That's not a bad idea...

Hurts like a bad tooth ache does, where you kind of can't think. Leaving for doctor's appt in about 15 minutes... [/CONTENTEMBED]

feel better are you sure its not a toothache?

Thanks so much! Yes, it's definitely the ear - I have otitis externa (basically extremely bad "swimmers ear", minus the swimming part). They stuck this wick-thing in there (ow) and drenched it with antibiotics and steroids. I will then keep drenching it three times a day and they look at it and remove/change the wick next week. I've been taking aspirin that helps with the pain. Meanwhile, I totally can't hear anything!!!!

And last but not least.
