Silver Black Birchen eggs from Mr. Reeves are here!

They are lovely! Really nice color for birds that are nearing rest period.

I had someone ask me about birchens today. I must resist, I must resist....

Very nice! I am jealous, currently looking for some "quality" silver Birchens to start my flock with.

Well....I posted earlier about my surprises for the day....that I had silver marans coming! And they are currently on the kitchen table in a box eating and drinking like crazy! I love the guys at the main post office in Lincoln. They are so good about calling me when things come in right away. Otherwise they would have been sitting there for another day at least.
They are fat and happy! I'll get some pics when they aren't so manic with the food

And Anna found the splash hen I was going to buy from her. She came sauntering into the yard this afternoon. So here's to hoping the other blue gal and her roo I was going to buy shows up. Although, she found his feathers all over last night. But I'm still gonna cross my fingers!
