Such a nice afternoon that no one is here to visit with! Getting ready to head to Awana tonight. Rachel's 30 bantam chicks are in the mail and should be here tomorrow morning

Cannot wait to see the fuzzy butts

Have a great evening everyone and welcome new folks!

Welcome to our thread Kate. You're going to find a lot of nice folks here and you should try to join us at Chickenstock.

Hello Everyone-

I hope you have enjoyed the nice weather!
Tomorrow, if it is nice, I am moving the four FIVE week old chickens out of the house! They can go into one of the rabbit hutches, and I will give them a light at night. NO more. I cant take it. Then I am moving the polish babies into the Jersey Giants cage.
If it is not nice, I am going to sweep the floor, dust the shelves and pretend that it is normal to have that much dust in a bedroom.

Guess what? Those other eggs I forgot about came today. Thirteen days behind the Muscovy eggs. *sigh* I will add them to the incubator also and see what happens. If anyone wants ducklings- Im going to have some.

Sam, we were talking about you today. My husband and I. I told him that I was trying to persuade you into one of these Jersey Giants...

Welcome Bonnie and Kate!

Sorry Bonnie, but I'm clueless as to JGs.

MrsChickenDad: I've still got 12 BLRWs and all 3 Ameraucana eggs still growing like crazy!

They're all due to hatch 1 week from now!

This has been the fastest incubation...where did the time go?

HBH: Need any chicks?

Sorry I dont know much about Jersey Giants except that they are gorgeous birds that get big- take 2 years to fully fill out- and my one that I hatched last year was a rooster so I took him to my brother in laws....where he was one of the selected to go to that big crockpot in the sky....

I hatched out four more five weeks ago, and I think I have three roosters that want to go live with any of you. They create a giant mess, and I really want them OUT of the bedroom now. really really really. The weather however, will not cooperate with me.

Good morning All!
Its my fault its raining- it is my day off. I hope you all have a great day in spite of the weather. I have my grandson today. Tomorrow is my youngest daughters twelfth birthday- and I have a busy busy day planned. Tomorrow I take my mother in law to the neurologist to find the results of her MRI.
