Well I was soooooo lost trying to find POOPS and then I could of kicked myself when I finally found it. LOL. I came home with two gorgeous silkies from Betsy. So excited!

They *are beautiful, too!! Did the Pheasant eggs hatch, Brandy?
I got the prettiest Blue Splash Silkie from Betsy, 2 Spangled Cornish Bantams from GotGame I just LOVE! And 2 little beachball Buff Orpington chicks from Bill along with some of his bamboo cane (thank you, Bill!!) and a Black Birchen Modern Bantam pullet from 2 boys. And both my Silver Laced Cochin chicks hatched today! 1 this morning before we left and one while we were gone! So I have 3 Silver Laced Cochins hatched with 5 Silver or Gold Laced eggs to go into lockdown this week. I put the little Orpingtons in with the 2 newly hatched Cochins under a heat lamp and they all 4 spread out like tiny puddles and went to sleep. I'm loving all these birds, they're all real healthy looking. One of the Cornish bantams even laid an egg on the way home, I'm going to incubate it and see if by chance it'll hatch.
Oh!! And I won the 2012 POOPS platter that Christina made and *2* pairs of Carla's earrings in the raffle!!! I couldn't believe I got those things! I wanted them so bad )) I stuck a bunch of raffle tickets in Nana's soap, too, but someone else got that. I'm real happy with these birds I got. I didn't realize Orpington chicks were even bigger than LF Cochin chicks.
I didn't hardly even get to talk to Jim! I didn't know he was leaving so soon. Jim, I wanted to give you a hard time and you didn't give me a chance to.
It was really nice to see everyone. I'm glad we just had an hour's drive home instead of 2 or 3 like some of you.
Robin, it looks like 2 boys and 2 girls to me. And you might have 2 Blue Salmon boys actually. If you do you're really lucky and will love that color.

How are your chickie doos doing??? These guys are SPUNKY. Those black ones are not very trusting at all, the barred ones rule the planet (they think), Ms White is the most docile, almost cuddly of the group. I hate Reba l

I do not hate Reba, I am at work and got a call in the middle of typing that I hate she lost all the white feathers in her cap.
