***OKIES in the BYC III ***

You have the Paper clip, go two icons to the left. It will open a small window, to browse for the Pic. on your computer. I think the old "albums" are gone..
 
I'm calling a lunch break.. Going to warm up some stuffed pork loin from last night.

Carl, I do love it when you post pictures, your birds are so beautiful and you just don't post pictures often enough. I think a picture of that Blue Wheaten boy you have is in order.
I've had to switch birds around, it seems nobody likes their own kind. The original 3 OEGB hens I'd gotten last month are ornery little buggers and do NOT want any of the 3 new girls from Carl in with them. I stuck it out long enough but the little Columbian had a bloody comb this morning so enough is enough. I had brought the baby OEGB from Carl inside the other night but that felt so unfair to do to her when she so loves being outside scratching around. It's one thing to keep my Serama boy inside, he can't deal with the cold. So I put the 3 I got from Carl in the "nice girl" 10x10 pen with my Dark Cornish & the Black Cochin bantam sitting on eggs, all is well with the whole group now. I'm going to put the Modern Bantam pair in with that pen.
Then...I put the 5 Faverolles hens and the gorgeous Fav boy in the 15x20 yard. I added my white Silkie boy there. The 7 Gold Siklie boys won't let him live with them, he's been separated from them and needs a place to live. That sweet huge Faverolles boy just *looked* at the Silkie boy sideways and then walked off real slow. He's so big and the Silkie boy is little, the Silkie got the hint in just those few seconds and the 2 are co-existing just fine in that yard now. How lucky is that??? I LOVE my Faverolles boy so much! He's so calm and gentle and so sweet to his girls, even allows the Silkie boy to live in the yard! I've been watching them real close and so far I believe they'll be fine together. (Of course the Silkie will have to move out for awhile when I go to hatch some Fav babies).
The 3 Fav girls I got as a group at the auction the other night all bite me when I try to handle them. Beings I'm one of the dreaded "pet" owners that's something I don't want to keep, so I'm going to let those 3 go if anyone's interested. The other 3 Favs I have are super gentle and super sweet. I'm planning to hatch some babies out and that's the temperament I want. So I'm going to keep looking for some nice quality hens with that kind of temperament. The 3 I'm not keeping were $8 each so I'll sell them for that if anyone knows someone who might be interested. If I had to guess I'd say they're hatchery quality if that matters, I have pictures.
Here's my Fav boy that I love soooo much, he's all the more special since I lost the one I got from Mike D 3 months ago. Then one of the Silkie & Fav boy together. I wish I knew who sold this Faverolles pair that night at Newcastle so I could tell them how much I love them. MJ or Rebecca? Didn't one of you know who sold them that night? The auction guy, maybe? I just have to thank him.

Are you talking about the little one thats inside? He is a good expample of a female line breeder bird but a poor example of OE. I really like him he suits his purpose very well, but I don't think I should post of pic of him and give someone the wrong idea as to what OE should look like.

Then it must be your PC, its about 2-3 times faster for me.. I am really enjoying it and some of the new fetures have made it even better and more enjoyable. Thank You Medfordz for pointing one of those out..

I'll post some pics of my new additions in a few days, they are a bit shy from being in a box for 3 days, but are quite impressive. I really like them.
