Yeah, we had 8 one died though... We are keeping are old turkeys for egg laying for more chicks and when the chicks grow up it's turkey dinner!

Oh, nice!

Today I went out and got some pictures of the birds. Cosette is looking better, although she can be quite deceptive about how she is doing. All the other birds are happy, except for Marius who is still mad about being separated from the girls.

Gavroche and friends are doing well. All are healthy and are getting less edgy around people, which is nice.

Tomorrow the eggs get shipped so I should have them sometime this week. Nervous about how my home-made incubator will do, but I'll just do the best I can and hope I get some chicks out of it.
My current hatch is still doing well, hoping to see some Faverolle chicks next week!

Here are the pictures,


Cosette curious as always.

Eponine picking through the weeds.

One of the Pumpkins plants.

Gavroche. Not to happy about the interruption.

One of the Australorp chicks.

Another one.

Gavroche with two of the Aussies. They all jumped into the picture. =)

All four chicks.

Nice pics! I love Australorps, they are so pretty!

@Gayleyy Thank you! The Australorps get even prettier when they get older with a hint of green in there feathering.


It's hard to capture on camera, but you can see a little bit.
