Kim, NO!! These were NOT your birds!! The first clutch was from Maryland, the second clutch of blues was from you, toes fine, the third clutch from TX, with only the one chick showing it. So, it's only been in two birds now, one male one female, both blue. Not a very good percentage rate with my small hatches, but coincidence that both were blue?

Come to think of it, the first clutch was nothing but problems! Only three hatched. Blue Butt with 2 crooked toes, one Splash with a deformed femur that I had to cull, and poor old Bump that got shrink wrapped and ended up being very wry necked. Vitamins did not help the poor soul either.

nice! even tho you only have the one, its a start! The thing I sometimes hate about projects is that it is hard to be patient while birds grow out and while the parent stock decides they want to go ahead and give up eggs and such to keep moving forward. Drives me nuts sometimes.

Nope....just singing it to myself now and still gigglin at your original post about staying home with the Wii. I'm a visual person.

I thought that it was men who were "visual" ?

me thinks if it were men that were the only ones that were "visual", that it leaves a whole lot of questions about why there are so many women that are artists, like me

I learn and process conversation visually in my head, even in school, I used my photographic memory to learn...it sure did come in handy when taking finals.

Oh man!! That is soooooo true! The worst is when someone else doesn't remember what they said, but you do, and they have this idea that just because they don't remember doing or saying it, that it somehow didn't ever happen? Anyone else know what I'm talking about? This drives me insane!
