Kathy - Your Bama girl is just gorgeous. I can't wait to see what she looks like all grown up. There are a couple of those babies that I sent to you that I really want to see how they turn out. There is a little black pullet in the older group that looked wonderful (she is in your first photo - the little black girl on the right), and there was a really pretty light blue little boy in the older group (also in the first photo back against the wall). He was also really, really feisty !!! I really would like to see what those turn out like.

Yep, Joe, Kathy had those chicks snapped up before I hit "enter" on that post !!

I took a few pictures today - none of them turned out that great, but figured I'd post them anyway.

Introducing BlueBell - She is 3.5 weeks and she is one of Minerva's chicks (I am about 99% sure). I got Minerva from Julie and she is 50% English, so that would make BlueBell 75% English. She is just gorgeous and I absolutely cannot wait for her to grow up. Here are a few photos of her...

Introducing "Sir Rumples Barnstall" (No, I did not name him - I had named him "Griffon" but hubby made me change it

) He is one of my 100% English little boys.

BlueBell and Rumples

Hagrid - 100% English boy

The O's (Olympia and Octavia) 100% English girls

Love the pics, Joy! That Bluebell is a little looker. She's going to be a beauty! She is gorgeous. And the Butts-what can I say, love those little butts!

As my hubby says - "IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII like big butts and I cannot lie"

Hey Renee - what are you looking into importing?????

Storminstaffs - You're in the UK right? Just check websites and then contact them. I contacted so many breeders I can't count until I found someone willing to work with me. It took us nearly 2 years of e-mailing before we finally got some eggs.

Hahaha, that was my ringtone a couple years ago! Had totally forgotten about that.

Oh, i think they are great pictures. those younger chicks look like they are bowing down to the blacks.
Bluebell is really pretty. Love the lacing. I think Hagrid is a awesome cockerel. I like the black cockerel too. He may be dark blue.
Can hardly wait to see their grown up pics.
I think I have some chicks from Winston that are cockerels and are looking really good. I have two blue pullets in one group too. I will probably put them over some of my large 50% English girls and see what happens. I have all kinds of breeding scenarios in my mind.

Joy, check your email.

Sure hoping I get some of these beauties. I am expecting my eggs to arrive today. I need good hatching vibes from everyone, PLEASE.
