I saw a pic of the japanese in a catolog. They are really pretty.

Those really are pretty. I love black and white anyway. While I don't much do bantams, I might keep one of them.

The assorted box is really more to see what I might get. I WANT a frizzle of some sort and my son desperately "NEEDS" a silkie

and I know I can get rid of any surplus chickies quicker than I can blink. Seems like EVERYONE wants chickens now and they are hard to get around here for some reason.

Yeah until after you help them all out, and they get little chicky personalities, and then you just can't give THAT one away.... or THAT one... no, not THAT one either lol.

No wonder you can't get a broody!! You dont keep bantams lol. Silkies and cochins are two of the best broodies, they say.

Congrats on starting your dream hatch!

I love the BLRW.

Good thing I didn't notice that auction. I might have completely lost my head and bid on them. My husband would kill me!!

Good luck with your dream hatch and can't wait to see pics in the future!

Picked up my BLRW eggs from the post office a couple of hours ago. 8 superbly packed eggs. My other box isn't here so I will (im)patiently wait and put them all in tomorrow...I am sure it will arrive then as it had farther to travel. The temp inside my house is about what it is outside right now so they won't have to rest long I don't think. The bator is fired up in anticipation. NOW I am excited!!!!

 

[goatkeepers]

I am so glad to hear that they arrived!!

How many eggs did you get? The BLRW? They are really pretty, I just looked at them yesterday. Now I want some

Keep us posted on your hatch!
