"Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

Good morning La-yers! Heard a rumour it’s supposed to be highs in the 70s by Sunday! I hope that’s true!



Gorgeous eggs! – I have a pic almost identical to that I took a couple years ago. They’re almost too pretty to eat!



Congratulations on the possum kill!



And Happy Hump Day!



The two little Easter Eggers Jim bought from Petrus fit right in w/my long Marans chick – all 3 are happy. So I’m happy too. Didn’t get time to take pics last night as I was on a writing deadline but maybe I’ll get a chance tonight. I forgot how cute chicks are at that age!

Yes....pictures....we want pictures!!!

I love my Amercauna, her name is Lou. She is my one that will fly up on your shoulder when you are kneeling down. A knee will work nicely too. My youngest, Matthew thought she was attacking him the first time she flew up to his shoulder. We usually take her off our shoulder (we don't want poopapalooza) and either hold her or put her on our knee. She likes to talk to you and beg for a treat. I wish we had gotten more of her breed. If she lays a cream colored egg, I will cry!!!! I want blue!!!!

Ya you would get over it eventually, lol. But that's why I try to have 2 EE in my flock, just in case one decides to be a cream egger. I have had 2 in about 10 hens lay cream eggs. That's over about a 10year period though. I'm sure they try to breed towards thegreencolor. These hens that I have I believe came from ideal. They are actually nice big healthy hens this year. Bigger actually than any of the other hens that are the same age. And they are both laying green...........SO THINK GREEN THOUGHTS!!!

My rooster rides on my shoulder for chores and when going to the coop at night. He manages to hold everything until he gets off. Sometimes they are smarter than you think when it comes to that.

Maybe I'll have to give her the benefit of the doubt a couple of times, it's only poop. She is so talkative. Lou is a definite favorite at our house.

I'm going to have to eventually try another rooster. As of right now, we still have Horn Dog Harry, however, he's out during the day around the yard and he goes up in a barn stall when the girls come out in the afternoon. He visits them during the day on the opposite side of the run fence, but life in the coop is much more peaceful and feathers are starting to grow back on my girls.

I have a phone call in to someone I know to see if they want Harry, it's his one chance to dodge freezer camp, and living the way he is now is not a long term solution.

How old is Lou? Snow White is curious and comes around me a lot, but Lizzie is still very shy.

I'm thinking green thoughts. But, then again, I named my two bunnies Lela and Ginger and bottle fed them saying "you are a girl, you are a girl" and they are both boys. Lol
