Well Sunday I started on my new coop for my 6 new babies that I picked up at TSC. Next weekend I should have all the walls up and painted, the next weekend it should have the siding on. The chicks will be 6 weeks old and ready to go outside in 3 more weeks!

looking good! Can't wait to see it all finished!

I am in Watson, so I am just down the street from Pride. Are you coming to the Watson Swap next month? I am gonna be bringing a bunch of silkie babies!

Oh no! The Watson Swap and Monroe swap are on the same days. What day is the Covington Swap?? I hope it is after the 21st. I hope we can work it out so that we have a swap each month. Do people sell hatching eggs at swaps? I am also starting a series of chicken paintings that I will bring with me to the swaps. Right now I am painting silkies, but I think Im going to branch out to a few other breeds Silkies are just sooo much fun to paint!

My babies are frisky this morning. I will have to take them out to play in the pen

Also, if anyone has a good suggestion on a back up battery for my incubator let me know. I want to buy one asap.

Yep something like that!

I have an issue with these things not requiring NPIP Certification. It doesn't cover everything but at least you know someone made the effort to get their flock tested. There's too many horror stories about buying sick birds.

Look what I found this morning around 5am while I was feeding everyone....


He is a little colt and was born 17 days early. Other than being a little small, he looks to be doing great. He was feeding had pooped and laid down to rest all before I left for work this morning. Mom is also doing great. We were hoping for another paint but healthy is good to!!!
