Hi Phil! Must have just missed you last night.

Hi MC!


Hello Chaos

How are you this morning?

The time zones confuses me

For somebody who isn't used to it it can be confusing. How are you today?

Because I'm special.

Good, thanks I am in the relaxed zone of the year, trying to get the best of it.

I prefer money checks (?)

Excellent. Do you feed your chickens a fermented feed?

Me too! As long as it is a good check!

Might be a little off track (imagine that), but here's and update on my last two incubation/hatches. My babies are growing up!

My older chicks will turn 9 weeks old on Wednesday, and they are still growing like weeds. Even though I realize they still have a lot of growing to do, and perhaps I'm being a little partial towards them, but most of them are starting to look really good... at least to me.

Here's one of Sonny's boys who hopped into the little pen I'd set up for the babies. I was worried that he might attack the little ones, but he didn't seem to mind them as long as they didn't crowd his space. There were a couple of light pecks, just to let them know he was in charge... and would be eating their food.

(RC chick in foreground)

Most of the pullets are filling out nicely, and have rich color with nice horn splash on shanks...






C.J. (Champ, Jr.) is looking better all the time... at least to me. He's outpacing (just barely) Sonny, Jr., who is also turning into a handsome young man. C.J. is thick and has nice girth in his back. I can't tell just yet, but I think he'll also have good length as well...





While he doesn't have a perfect comb, and the black ticking in his hackles may be a bit strong, I will definitely be using him in the breeding pen next spring. His only brother is Runt, whom I doubt will make it until spring, so he's pretty much a shoe-in...




I have to be honest... C.J. is my favorite. He's never slow about showing his attachment to me. As soon as I sit down, he's on me. I wonder if it's because he knows he's made it to the top of my list? Or... is this why he made it to the top of my list? Hmm....



Not to be outdone, his sister never misses an opportunity to say "hello"...

Very nice Joey, glad they are looking good. Dinner plans for the RC? I know mine dressed out nice, have to see if I have a pic.

Glad it cooled off, even though 98 is still pretty hot.
