HelllllooooooooOooOOoOOo!!???
It anybody OUT THERE?
(Pink Floyd flashback...)
I have 8 black d'Uccle chicks now. They are adorable but they don't like me already
That will only last until they discover bread.
I have a favorite GoldNeck hen now, because she discovered bread
I'm not too proud to buy chicken love.
My chickens are so spoiled they know the difference between sandwich bread, whole grain french bread (at home we call this 'seedy bread'), and the yeast rolls I buy at the farmers market. They only get the good bread/rolls if someone forgets to put them away and they get all stale or speckled. But the chickers don't care. They'd rather have a mold-freckled yeast roll than a slice of fresh sandwich bread. I find this amusing, but I'm easily amused.
Going to sell the misfit goldneck trio to make more room for the teenagers.
Then the goldneck roo I'm keeping will go into solitary to unlearn hormones 101 and maybe learn some manners at the same time.
The goldneck hen duo will get the baby goldnecks & the potential keeper millie girls to raise.
Then I will only have 12 teens in one pen.
I think Spikely, my favorite silkie, is a cockeral. Now I gotta decide between Spikely, who's pretty but has wing fingers, and Moe. Moe has no wing fingers and is very pretty as well. Practically a barred partridge. I took pics but didnt get around to posting them. Gonna have to, cause my kentuckysilkie keepers turned out very pretty! I'd just rather they were 2 girls & a boy, not the other way around.
