How cute! DH calls these "Cha-Chingers" since they are surely the most I've spent for chicks to date!

Anyone dying for a Lavender, I'll have some little cockerels to dispose of soon. I'm guessing I'll have 6 or more, and I'll ship them for the shipping plus $10 box fee when weather permits. I will want to send them in at least pairs, and will silent auction to the 3 highest bidders- just to cover my feed, really...I don't expect them to go for much. I'll probably be certain of sex in another week or two, so I'm taking 3 names: NOW!


Can you just imagine the furor that would have occurred a year ago if someone did this?

I'm looking for new hen blood at the moment. If you want to ship me a trio 2 hen and 1 roo I'll pay and take them off your hands

That's if my budget allows me after I buy this new laptop I just ordered for the farm.

Will do- I haven't had any that hatch looking like Sarah's mottleds- I'm getting the juvy feathers with mottling and so I think I just have carriers at this point, but I'm banding them all for future reference. Still hatching, though!

Sarah they are cute! You have 2 blacks here at my place to add to those. I am toying with the idea of firing up the bator again but this humidity and the poor duckie hatch I had are causing me to stew on it a bit more. grrrrrrr

Here is my chicks from this morning all fluffed up and irritated that I took pics before feeding!

Oh and I took some pics of the polish/orps. I guess I'm supposed to come up with some ridiculous kitschy name? How's about Polingtons? or Orpish?? LOL!

Wiley little buggers wouldn't stand still.......
