So I went to an auction this Saturday and came back with a few more feathered friends than I expected WHOOPS! All I had wanted were a few cuckoo maran chicks that had been shipped up from Texas, but nooo, dad came back with
8 count em EIGHT cuckoo maran chicks
5 cuckoo maran x ameraucana chicks
2 white silkies, one roo and a hen (sadly they were in pretty rough shape, spike the roo didn't make it through the night
)
4 very well used isa brown hens, obviously from some sort of hatchery, I'm gonna see if I can get them looking back to their pretty little selves again
2 Australorp cuties, a roo and his gal, both so sweet natured and I'm starting to think my new favourite pure bred chickens of the lot.
Hopefully if I can mix them all right, intermingle with everyone, I could get some lovely, fat, dark egg laying hens!
I'll post some pictures along with all their names later!
(Also, may sound dumb, but I forgot how to use the emojis, how do you do it on this site???)
