2 gold laced cockeral
1 blue cockeral
1 silver laced cockeral
3 silver laced pullets

Robin, you have me down for at least 3 of the mille fleur cochin pullets and the 11 week cochin pullets right?

(per our emails)

Absolutely, you have 1st dibbs on who you want. Do you want both cochins? Even the mutant girl? The silvers are cutie pies too but I don't know about their lacing yet. And I know you don't need any more roos but those MFC's boys are dang cute! I'm keeping one at least. And one of the gold lace roo babies is a darling. I might keep him too, or the blue guy.

I so wish I could take the cochin roos! My cochin roosters have just been the best little roosters. However, after my husband said this morning "here's a new concept, how about backyard chickens being kept in the backyard?" I figured I'd be pushing my luck with another rooster

I did tell him that I have started a whole new trend (and probably ticked off a lot of husbands) of "garage roosters"

He has agreed to one Serama roo, so I guess I'll have to be good and leave it at that but I definitely want your girls. I will take both the older ones (I don't show so the lacing isn't a big deal to me), the mille's we talked about and I can be your backup on any that you don't find homes for but can't keep. How's that? You know I love cochins! Why is your BLR Wyandotte a trouble maker? Lol I have lots of those... And now what will I have that you want? (j/k)

Oh boy...what do I want from you? Those mixed babies are so cute! Way funner than my mixed babies. I'll go back through the pics and let you know. And...dare I take a serama? I'm afraid it'll end up in the house!

OK, both big cochins and 3, at least, MFC's. The next problem will be which ones! There are 9 of them and they're all so dang cute but different!

Oh she's a trouble maker alright...bossy, escape artist, sleeps in the nest boxes and poops in them, and talks a lot!

Backyard chickens are so last year...garage roosters are hot! Trendsetter!

Oh I might be interested in her too if no one else speaks up. She'd fit right in with my group of naughty birds. They do all that and more! You definitely need a couple HOUSE Seramas!!! One would be so lonely....lol. I have mixed breeds hatching out for the next couple weeks so you'll have lots to choose from. I'm sure you want a pullet so that will a bit. Here is the photo of the first one born just a few hours ago. She is fitting into the naughty Castle birds...rolling the other eggs that are pipping and hatching around the incubator so I had to snatch her out! Her dad is a Black Tail Buff Japanese and her Mom is a Barred OEGB. I have no idea what she will look like but she's cute! I have at least 6 more eggs from this pairing to hatch. We've named her Henrietta, Rita, after her Daddy Henry

The next one to hatch will be Tsagirl's NN Blue Frizzle and my Blue Sizzle. Can't wait for that one either! It's like Christmas!

CorgiHouse - I have lavender and black/lav split LF Ameraucanas, and Ilia has 2 blue wheaten pullets on her list right now, though you'll have to arrange for those ahead of time, because she isn't coming, someone else will bring them down for you though...

Still three months to go, and this list is getting LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG!!!

And growing still...I just had another mutt baby hatch and I put more in. I have babies hatching all the way until February 4th with more eggs on the way

The baby looks just like her daddy (my avatar) - blue, white, bearded, 5 toes.
