***OKIES in the BYC III ***

[VIDEO][/VIDEO]I see OKCRacefan was looking for Silkies, that's what I came here to see if anyone had also-great minds think alike! I haven't gotten any more chicks for over a year now. Had a lone Bantam Faverolles hatch last May but he didn't make it, broke my heart all over again.
I've lost so dang many and it's so hard. But I find myself wanting more Silkies (girls!) I have a Silkie boy and 2 Silkie girls I got from Betsey almost 2 yrs ago but I'd sure like to find some more girls. Still have my Spitzhauben quad, love em' but scared to hatch their eggs because I have too many boys still here.
Coral, the Brabanter boy died in July, I have no earthly idea why. He'd always done so well and acted so good. The 2 girls are still here though.
Betsey, if you've got any girls you'd part with please let me know.

PS Channing (my Serama boy) is sitting right here with me and is doing great, thank God :)
Forgot to ask-is the Blanchard auction this weekend?

Hi, Ksane!!!! Haven't seen you post in a while. Sorry to hear about your losses, but glad the others and especially Channing are doing well.
 
Michael, thanks for the info on the Blanchard auction.
Hey, Kass! It does seem slow, doesn't it?? I didn't mean I'd lost many this year, actually just an odd one here and there this past year. It was a year ago that I'd lost so many that I had hatched that summer. For me that was very hard. Do you remember Lillith the huge Brown Red Cochin rooster? lol He has his own yard with Orloff girls, he's a very very sweet rooster and so pretty. Robin, the Blue bantam Cochin I got from you (Mattie) is still doing very well. All that girl wants to do is sit on eggs :)
I'm considering hatching maybe just a few Silkies, I so love how easy they are to take care of and their sweet personalities. My Cochins have such a hard time in the summer. I still have all my Orloffs, those are some tough birds! Common sense tells me to order a batch of pullets instead of hatching. Still deciding.
