NY chicken lover!!!!

So, TSC finally got me. They had pullets today. And some of them were light brahmas.

Seriously, I was going to buy some from TSC anyway, because they provided a lot of stuff for the 4-H poultry scholarship my daughter just won. We were just waiting for pullets to come in. I am going to have enough little roos to deal with as it is. I also realized today that I could could keep bringing chicks into the basement and my husband would probably never know until he had to build more coops. Lol...


Light brahmas would have gotten me to break, too. The two first ever chicks I bought were light brahmas. I still have the daughters from the hen. I'd love to have some more, but this time from nice breeder lines.
yes they would me too, BUT I'm getting about a zod eggs a day now so I don't need more chickens.

You could do the opposite ...give her a chick ..incubate the eggs ..when they have hatched give them back to her ?
That' would be to expensive. I don't have an incubator. Well I do but plan to return it to TSC. I haven't opened it.

I've been tempted but I know what it takes to hatch and quite frankly it's a lot of work.

I tossed three more eggses last night. She still have a few. I have a Frizzle that is broody but she's young and I don't trust her to take these eggs. The Del hen is on a lot and I can't candle her OE's very well.

I'm afraid to to to TSC for a new flash light.

The might have something I can't resist. Like Brown Leghorns.

Just called ISA browns, "white ducks" and Bantams. Poor girl doesn't know what kind. All 50 cents!! HELP ME JESUS!! Lead me not into temptation and deliver me from those evil Silkies.

Lord have mercy why do hatcheries do this? Why hatch so many chicks? 50 cents can't cover their cost can it?

I have to go to TSC today....wish me luck.

I think they drop the prices down because the chicks have gotten a bit older, it's cheaper to get rid of them at .50 than to have to take them back (in just guessing).
 
My employee association is having our annual Northeast Area Rally in Warehem, Mass first weekend in May. Be going out Thursday, coming back late Saturday. Anyone need a chicken train between Cortland in CNY and Massachusetts? I'm tempted to swing out to a place in Rhode Island that has Midget White Turkey poults lol.
 
Happy Easter from Fish Mountain Farm, home of ABGA/ADGA goats and Silkie Chickens.

We do have some misfits that needed a home. This is Bruno, a young barred rock cockerel. He says happy Easter too!
