So, one of the blue marans went broody so told DH, hey, let's try it and put a few of my darkest eggs under her. Then yesterday, behold a silkie went broody, ask DH

if I should just go ahead and throw eggs under her too. He was like Sure, go for it

So, now let's just all take a moment to pray for my husband that there isn't a sudden avalanche of broodies, tee hee. This could be fun though I'd better start selling either adults or chicks then, lol.

CAT has good intentions, but I see a TON of cats come out of there very very sick, and they adopt them out this way. I do NOT recommend adopting from them.

good to know

I used to live by a lady that volunteered there. She usually ended up taking in the kittens with feline leukemia and fostering them. I think a lot of the problem with them is that they mostly do foster or have cats in Petco stores where everyone comes in and pets them. They will let pretty much anyone foster and thats how the diseases keep getting spread. They do not have the foster parent bring them in for a vet check before adoption so who knows what they have. Also I adopted 1 from there who had only been there for 2 days so they really didn't even have a chance to get a good workup on her. I got lucky and she was fine but I know a lot of signs to look for and did my own check before agreeing to take her...... They are trying to do good but really are not doing so well. They need to provide more training to their volunteers also.

I have decided to sell off my bantam Ameraucanas. If anyone is interested in getting a start with these guys, these are really great birds!! (I'm only getting rid of them because I need the coop space, as I am getting the last variety of bantam Faverolles that I don't already have).

I have:

1 black cock
1 black cockerel
1 blue cockerel
1 blue hen
1 blue pullet
5 black pullets (2 are almost a year old, 3 are nearing POL)
6 unsexed, but almost fully feathered chicks

I will not be selling the girls individually. Pairs / trios / larger groups only. $20 / pair, $40 / trio, $150 for everything.
