a pic of my latest addition. Messy little bugers. But still adorable. Although tsc states these are pekins. I was kindly informed they are french white mascovys.

Cute! I love Muscovies and have 10 comming in may. I'll have 5 East Indies coming next Thursday!

I would guess DHetzel, I ordered the Heated Water Bowls, Hardware Cloth and hit Tractor Supply to use the coupon he posted to buy some cattle panels. Talk about enabling!

We just had bath time.


Too cute!
 
So meeting Auroradream at 1500 to get the chick fix for our old broody. I should dig out a dark hoody, or maybe a slouch hat and trench coat? LOL
I have handed of many things at gas station parking lots....fishing gear, adult chickens, baby chicks, ducks, cribs, animal crates...
 
Thats great! Can we meet in the morning at NC Sheetz?


We may have to run to Altoona first thing in the morning. PM me your number (and real name lol) and I'll give you a call tomorrow once we know exactly what's going on.


Her real name is 'Chicky MissHatch-a-Lot, Keeper of the Broodiness'. Fisher is just an alias.


:yuckyuck


That little poult is so cute! It looks like it has chocolate sprinkles on its back. I'll be curious to see how it looks when it grows up also!

Lol. On the security camera it's going to look like a drug deal. "I swear officer, it was just some chicks in the box!" :lol:


Haha! This wouldn't be our first chicks in a box exchange there! They might get suspicious!

I can't wait to see how this poult grows out! Made I'll name her Sprinkles or Ice Cream. She really does look like she has sprinkles on her back lol

Okay should i put more blue coat on the new scratches. They aren't bad but she is bleeding a bit. She is very alert and talkative. Talking to me and her reflection in window. Almost purs when I pet her. I know EEs are normally friendly but I think someone was very hands on with her. She seemed fine all week temperament wise. Always up and busy when I checked on her. I didn't see any of my big girls pick on her. One of my spangled bantams was picking on one of the little hens but not much. I'll happily hang out with her in house for awhile! The only hens Ive had were the ones that came with house and they like me but not overly friendly. She did drink alot when she came in. I have some nutridench I could give her too.

Keep cleaning it up and putting blue kote on it. I think maybe putting a large hen saddle on hen might help protect it while she heals too.


I vote sprinkles!! Speaking of hen saddles, did you get the check? :D


Anyone on here make saddles or have a good place to buy them from?? I wasn't super happy with the ones I bought on Amazon and dont have time to make them.


X2! I just got three from Aurora. They are lovely!

Okay, so I really want to raise some chickens for meat.  I know it will be tough when processing day comes, but  I really want good quality meat.  I would like to try these guys, since I just want to allow them to free range.  Should I get them in about a week or so?  I figure that way, I can process in May.  Going to start with 10, since I'm a bit nervous. Any suggestions?  I will be doing all processing myself, unless I can get a friend to stop by, which is unlikely.

Get them soon, when free ranged they will probably grow to size slightly slower but should do good for you. Start reading the butchering day support group thread, that should cover most questions. Ask for anything it doesn't answer.


Thanks, I just got the okay from hubby last night. He didn't even fight when I asked! I think he knows we are in too deep now. And maybe he forget about the chicks I am getting in the spring., and the broody with eggs and the....
