Hey guys! I'm new here, americanvalkyrie directed me to this thread.

I'm in Vegas! & so I was wondering if anyone knew of any locals selling silkie chicks??

Welcome! glad you joined the thread. I'm in Reno so I don't know if there are Vegas folks with silkies.

This morning's fresh-laid eggs over last night's fresh-baked wheat bread. Life is wonderful.

Nom Nom Missy,

My favorite too! I always make my own breads and mayo and anything else I can do without buying it. I do it to avoid the chemicals getting into my body. Luckily my doctors are into being super healthy and started my eating ways a few years ago.

Everyone just loves Silkies and such but I for some reason love the LF's only. I don't like these little tiny birds and I don't know why.

Welcome to the Nevada thread Kentdalimp!

Depending on how long you've been hanging out here you may have heard me mention a couple trips to Mesquite. DH and I love it there! Reminds me of parts of Arizona where I spent a lot of my childhood. I'll add you to the opening post now.

I've been making my own bread for years, especially when I calculated the cost of fresh, multigrain bread as 50cents per loaf if you make it yourself. Versus $4-5 a loaf for something that has 20 ingredients when it should really have 5 or 6. I guess that's the price... I haven't bought storebought bread in years, so I really don't know what a good loaf costs these days.

Two of the things that turn me off of commercial bread: 1) it can sit on the counter for 3 weeks. Homemade bread can sit on the counter for 3 or 4 days. 2) if you smoosh it, it springs back due to all the cellulose in it. Ewww? That's just not right.

We do our own bread, yogurt, mayonnaise, broth, and vegetables whenever it's the right growing season. Now eggs, and hopefully soon in the future we'll raise our own rabbit meat.

Aubrey those are so cute!!! I love the fluffy ones.

Silkies are the bomb.

Ron, thats what I'm doing through US Bank. I've got a visa with a 300$ max, which is good I guess, but I just wish the process were faster. Thanks though. :]
