Thanks! By this time next year all of the meat we eat we'll have raised! Lets see
3 dogs
3 goats
4 cows
25 ducks not counting babies I'm selling
10 turkeys
7 guineas
38 meat birds
And I'm not counting chickens lol because I'll have to admit I have a problem. Still missing pigs but they'll come in the spring. Oh and a cat.... and some wild turkeys we've been feeding back on the trails in our woods... I think thats it. I make coaster and trivets with a 100 different themes out of epoxy and ceramic tiles.
Heres one I did of my birds. It still needs a coat but they have a glass like surface when done.

WOW! Good for you! Those coasters are fun! Do you grow your own produce too?

Is anybody interested in a couple little gold laced seabright pullets? I got them this spring to keep my little Simon serama company but I've managed to get a couple serama girls for him. The seabrights should be coming in to lay in another month or so though their eggs will be tiny lol. Here's a picture of one of the girls with Simon.

Update: HE IS STILL AVAILABLE! Anyone in PA interested in this silkie rooster, free to a good home. I'm in York, PA

Silkie roos are hard to find pet homes for, but easy to sell for meat, since their dark skin is prized by the Asian community. Did you try advertising on Craigslist?

 

[yoopergirl1211]

Any idea what this chick is?

I wanted to post updated pics of the babies. Still don't know for sure who dad is but they are growing VERY fast! They hatched Saturday/Sunday.

Quite a change, cute to see little 'Spot' checking out the food before he's even dried and fluffed, lol

 

[OneMountainAcres]

"Spot" kept freaking me out on the first day or two because I kept thinking hid eye was in the wrong place lol

 

[fisherlady]

Yep, I can see why, you could call it 'Echo' if you don't like 'Spot'

Oh wow I didn't know that about their meat! I've been trying to avoid using Craigslist, but I guess I can check it out. Thanks for the info!
