Zoo - recognize this butt? She has quite a personality. Peanut has made friends with the buff brahma banties.

Clover - this is the girl sitting on your 2 eggs from the swap (look great as of tonight!) and 4 MFC eggs donated by the MFCs! Gotta love those broody silkies!

Oh I cannot even begin to explain how awesome I think this website is!!! For anyone new to chickens in the area this is FABULOUS for connecting them with not only the fall swap but other local events that they might like! Here I am just 20 minutes north of Corvallis but I hadn't heard of the Corvallis coop tour that's in just 2 weeks- now I'm going! I hope this site grows like a weed- maybe advertise it like crazy on Craigslist and even have small fliers about it that could be posted at feed stores? What a great resource and it already looks so professional! You guys rock!

Oh, & I'm already linking it to friends on facebook!

What kind of a fluffy butt is that?

And your silkie is so cute too. I broke down and got two silkies because I kept seeing pictures of them and just couldn't resist. Wouldn't you know, I think I got the most um...well..."cuteness challenged" silkies in the world. Poor pathetic little things.

My adoring your chickens is becoming a recurring theme. I'm harmless, I promise.

Yay! She's yours!!

When we doing lunch?

Am I buying Chipotle? I owe you some burrito bucks! I need to pick your brain anyway about 4-H meetings and fair.

So this week is shot, tomorrow's already Thursday. We're in Bend for the weekend (might be able to coordinate picking her up on Sunday) and I will literally be out of it all next week. I'm having a sinus procedure but under a general. I have a very badly deviated septum and it's interferring with my sinus drainage...I have mold allergies and a lot of snot...welcome to Oregon! Anyway I was hoping he'd throw in a rhinoplasty and eyelid tuck at the same time, but the surgeon says I don't need it..yet..how nice of him! I'll probably have 2 black eyes and I'll have to recoup from a general, then no bending or lifting for 2 weeks. I'm sure the 1st week I'll be pretty miserable. Would week after next be OK? If not, let me know. Maybe if my DH heads down to Eugene or Corvalis he can pick her up. Or if my son goes to the Markum Inn he could get her. This is a weekly thing with him and his Scott's Mills/Silverton Buddies.

Whatever works for you - Sundays I leave for work at 3pm though...we can always play it by ear and see what happens.

Let me know if you need anything during your surgery recovery!!! (And I MEAN that, not just sayin' it!)

.."cuteness challenged". I just picked up 3 silkies chicks this past weekend, and they're at that, I've called it 'pre-teen', losing the cute baby fuzz but the

That is little Krista's butt!

Lol my outside buff silkies are poor and pathetic too. It wasn't until I got a silkie from oregenjen that I even knew what a real silkie was supposed to look like. I just couldn't imagine all the fuss over these ugly little creatures LOL

Yes! I tried to get Peanut's pic but she's very fast. Krista seems to be either 1st or 2nd bird so she does what she wants. Peanut is so cute she sleeps in the nest box with her bantam brahma friends. Every time I look at her during supervised outside playtime, she reminds me of a wild bird. Are you sure she's a chicken?

And as for scruffy silkies...it's what's on the inside that counts. right?

Well, the fuzzy butt girl came from Zoo and the silkie is not the best quality because I can see her eyes!!! But thank you. I have help from my chicken-loving-son in picking them out.
