NY chicken lover!!!!

tgrlily - pretty bird~ Wish I had room for some Silkies, they are great for kids and I happen to have 3. But, alas no banties for me. Too many bigguns' around here!
 
Thanks!! She's a sweetie. My youngest is holding her in the pic.

My poor husband had to build them their own coops. My favorite was once a child's playhouse -- it's painted lavender & has an enclosed porch! He designed & built the other from scratch & it can be split into 2 pens.

Ok folks hang on to your seat. I'm in AL and I'm bringing back eggs from Claudia. Most are RIR and she's got some nice ones and lots of silkies and I'm bringing back some eggs to hatch. two orps and three silkies and the rest rir's. What 's that beige color silky they have? I'm not into silkies as you know but I thought why not. I'll pawn them off on trylin. She'll take anything. I can talk her into anything. It's a wonder her DH hasn't shot me yet. I don't know much about silkies hatching all that.

I traded her some Del eggs.

She's super nice and I plan to come back in April for a show here in Clanton. She shows. My DW and grandkids were with me and she was super nice, the kids has a nice time. It is 70* here and the birds are loud and wake you early. I'll sleep for a week when I get back, but not til I set these eggs.

I will of course make sure everyone in the house has their tin foil hats on just in case these silkies hatch out. They're dangerous right from the get go they are.


Well take care off to the zoo.

I'd love some call ducks, but don't have a pond and don't think I have the energy to provide water in a kids pool. Is there an easier way?

i have mine in outdoor rabbit hutch home made 8x2 feet. its covered with clear plastic to keep snow out. i cover wire floor with hay.

Quack! I'll have to sell quite a lot of Marans & blrws to buy calls....8-)

I think it would be great for 4H kids though...cute. cute.cute.
 
I have some Pekin drakes for sale , just under 1 year old . May have some hens also , I have to check and see.

EE rooster 8 months old .

I am just north of Watertown NY.

Looking for Wheaten Marans and Silver fox rabbits.

Well anyhow I don't intend to keep them if they hatch. Is there an apricot color? I think one of them is that color. Still I was thinking of you when she offered the eggs anyhow. I'm not Trylin would want them or I could cross them with my frizzles. Not sure what I'll do with them. Have to wait and see what hatches.
