My wife has the "Shake head, smile, and walk away" thing down to a science.
She's great with the chickens.
OK the real truth. The silkies are for her. She loves them. We started with 3, 2
turned out to be roos. I then tried to hatch 6 but the hatch went bad. 3 didn't
even pip. 1 died while we did an assisted hatch, 1 was accidentally killed (talk
about guilty tears), and we have one left, it's name is Kill. I'll probably build a
seperate coop for the silkies. "The Silkie Shack".
If anyone hasn't looked at FlufnStuffs silkies look at the pics on her site. They
really are cute little fluffballs. They will probably kill me in my sleep but if it
makes my wife happy then it's worth it. There...
