You crack me up Green!! I'm sure it is still "cheeper" in the long run...especially after 6+ (Lord willing) on our end!! Oh well...more hands to help take care of MORE chickens, right?? How's that for chicken math??

Neeley - Love that you think the cat is cute too...he's my old fellow that puts up with a LOT from his "mom" to his new "sister"...I don't think he realized he was signing up for all this when he picked me.

Vfem -

How precious!! I love the whole "pose" ....says to me... "Yup, I'm going to be 30...attitude wise!!"

I think they definitely grow up way to fast. Therefore,

I NEED some chicks to cuddle with

...it will help make up for my baby girl growing so fast.

Okay

where are the REST of our chicken hatch updates?? This rainy/dreary day should give you plenty of time to snap photos of them and share with us!! We are eagerly awaiting them!!

My incubator is set to go into lockdown at 3pm tomorrow. I will be hatching Dorkings. My Dorking Roos were bred with Black Sex Links, and RIR. IF anyone is interested in buying some of the chicks, I am located in Kernersville - NC. Feel free to send me a PM. I will be posting pics as they generate.

WHAT?! 41! Lydia, I've met you, seen you with my very own eyes and I just can't possibly believe that! I would of easily guessed YOU were in your early 40s, no WAY I woulda guessed you have kids that age! Goodness, you have aged very, very well I must say.

 

[Miss Lydia]

Well thank you kindly Neeleys, must be the mtn. air..

How is your little hen doing that had the what did you ever decide it was? is she still doing good? good news Jan 336, can't wait to see those chicks!! and I don't know where Kernersville is, I'm in Burnsville.. there is always someone looking for chicks though. keep checking back.

Since we're showing off our little chicks...

All those are in various stages of babyhood.

 

[Miss Lydia]

aww so sweet,can she hold her breath under water EM?

 

[EmtheFishLady]

LOL I haven't tried. Her daddy is deathly afraid of the water, so any swim lessons she's gonna get have to be secret or he'll have a heart attack.

 

[Miss Lydia]

well she's a cutie, and I bet she doesn't have a dab of algae growing on her.. Have you ever seen videos where people put their babies in the water and they go under and start to swim? that is amazing to me.

well finally decide to get those 3 Brahma hens that need a home, If it doesn't work out them we'll just have some more chicken in the freezer but I do hope it works.. Just having to keep the separate for so long is going to be a bummer..

 

[EmtheFishLady]

Yes I have seen those. I want to take her to the classes they have at Western, but as I said, her daddy will die I think.
