Beautiful paint babies! I think you should take them to work with you tomorrow and I will take them off your hands!

The summer was hard on everything on the farm EXCEPT paints. They did well and I have a lot who need to be finding new homes now. Yes...I pick mine first but all I am selling are much better than what I started with. They are a blend now of European and American. Type and quality has turned around really well. Now to just get them WHITE. Here is a trio I am auctioning.

You start with a white leghorn and breed back to black silkies for about 15 years. That is how it was done...NOT BY ME.
