Like I need an excuse to buy more chickens! Hahaha

Actually I had already ordered EEs and ameraucanas more than a month ago.

In all seriousness I will talk to my wife and kids about this. I am very interested in hugles and would like the experience building one. My kids are all adults. 3 of them and they are all still living at home with no jobs. Some work would do them good. I am also looking for some space for growing tobacco but that is more than a garden space, maybe we can work something out. The distance is a bit far but I think we can manage it. It doesn't hurt this crowed to get out once in a while anyway. I will get back to you and see what can be arranged.

Worse then you know my 5 year old saw the picture too, and now she wants her chickens to lay eggs like that! LOL

Good morning, All!

Today all my CA BYCer friends are off to the big poultry show in Stockton. I am green with envy and wish I could've gone...one of these days I'll figure how to coordinate my life.

But I'll get a poultry fix, anyway, because I'm dropping off the chicks to VegasChick (Trayci) at noon today (who tells me she's dusting chickens and other fun chores like that). Hope she likes her new additions! Just preliminary guess (light wing feathers and tail sprouts) I see at least three VERY nice Wheaten Marans pullets in the group...sure wish I could keep 'em, but I'd rather see them go to a good home than have them yanked from me down the road out of spite (stupid neighbor). The Salmon Faverolles are extremely cute with all their puffiness (like feather-legged EE or Ameraucana chicks), but I'm not so keen on those 5th toes.

My dog Gabby (St. Bernard cross) has taken an extraordinary interest in the chicks. She sat for hours on end at the incubator and she bee-lines for the casita where the brooder is when let outside. I pulled up a YouTube on feather sexing and I could hear her run through the house to be at my side.... It was the peeping of the chicks on the video! I don't know if her interests are with good intentions or not and really don't want to risk a chick to find out.... This is the tall and agile dog, afterall, who will deftly snag a sausage out of the fry pan if the lid's not on. Sneaky, sneaky.....
