part of it but Pay pal allows you to get your money back so it will be fine. I don't think it is because he keeps in contact and siad he was sorry his truck broke down .

 

[sherylreno]

Okay, it sounds like he's trying. I guess you must trust him for now. Good thing Pay Pal helps with this too.

Missy I really like your coop, the paintings are beautiful!

Seth- if the time comes that you need a coop and don't have one yet, just let me know. I have some half sheets of plywood, some extra chicken wire, and time. I'd be happy to help you whip up something temporary at least. I firmly believe that people have forgotten how to stick together, and that with the economy and polotics the way they are, their might be a time real soon when people will have wished they treated each other a little better.

Ok, so these are by far some of the worst pics ever taken, but I promised some today. So here they are, even if they were last minute.

Thats my Honey, with mystery chick on his right, and Peregrine and my little split girl from Sunny on his left.


Mystery coming in for a closer look.



and an older pic of some of our leghorn girls. They were just over two months old here.

Mandy, I loved your pics. I have a friend who lives in Carson and she needs to get rid of her 4 leghorn chickens, they are around 3 years old but they still lay very well. She decided she wanted different color eggs after she saw mine and went and picked up 4 new babies. If you know anyone who's interested please let me know. I think they are going to put them on Craigslists.

I totally believe that way!

Did I miss the conversation about who Honey the mystery chick is?

And thanks for the compliments on the coop! It was a lot of hard work turning it into something other than the pile of recycled junk I started with, that's for sure.

 

[chickee]

Yes! Thanks so much for posting the pictures and video! Both your chicks are super nice! The lacing on your BLRW rooster chick is awesome!! And I really like Amanda's color! It is nice and clear of any ticking.

Now all you need is a black lav split rooster for your lavender girl and a BLRW pullet from Kirstie's batch and you will be able to produce some super nice chicks for yourself next spring!

I know Candy wanted to see pics of Lacey to see how she's doing so I though she might like to see a video of these 2. I'm really enjoying this group of birds. They have personalities that I really love watching.

Oh Dear. Lets hope the guy is dependable. Sounds like he wants to do the right thing, now he just needs to follow through!

Wow that Lav boy looks HUGE on your Hubby's arm! I realize that some of that is just perspective since he is much closer to the lens but still! He's so much bigger than I remember him being!

BTW I completely agree with you on the community thing. I was so used to banding together with friends and neighbors to get big jobs done when I was young. Spent a lot of time painting other people's houses, cleaning, gardening, and building stuff. Always made the work fly by and it was FUN! I learned a lot and made a lot of really good friends that way. Folks don't do that much anymore. I guess cause some folks would take advantage. Ask for help but never give it.

Course folks with bad backs and older folks helped out in simpler ways like doing the planning and design work. Measured and marked things to be cut, held the level while the guys/gals worked to be sure posts etc stayed true. Made sure food got ordered and delivered or oversaw the cooking of the meals, made coffee and iced tea, that sort of thing. No job was unimportant and everyone got to feel like a valuable contributor. We even had a big get together twice a year to process the animals. We all shared what animals and produce we had brought. It was a lovely time of life! I miss it a lot!

Honey was in referance to my husband in the pic, but I'm not sure what breed the little pullet sitting on his right arm is.


Do you paint for others? Or just your own enjoyment?

Depending on what she wants for them I might be interested. I really love our leghorn girls.

Hey, I think I can hook you up there!

I'm professional, but it's by far not a huge money maker for me. I'm also a massage therapist, a soapmaker, a mom of special needs kids, a wife, a gardener, a gluten-free and from-scratch cook, and now a chicken-farmer. When I know I can get them done, I take contracts from people for artwork. It's nice to have projects like that on the side.

Amanda is pretty pale. I don't see any rows in her comb yet so I'm thinking girl so far.

Harmony is doing really well. She's hanging in there. I'm going to take her back to the vet to see what we can do about her upper bill, it's so much smaller than her lower bill and she's not gaining the weight as fast as Mo but it's to be expected with her type of injury. These guys grew so fast I can't believe it. They are huge compared to the chickies.

the ducklings really are getting so big! Hope harmony continues to improve. I think your lav looks like a pullet, too.

hope it works out!

thanks for the photos! what kind of comb does the mystery chick have, single?

Yes! Thanks so much for posting the pictures and video! Both your chicks are super nice! The lacing on your BLRW rooster chick is awesome!! And I really like Amanda's color! It is nice and clear of any ticking.

what is ticking? inquiring minds want to know.
