Thanks! I love those BRs; they are terrific layers.

The mystery bird is a Polish. She's really a pretty little thing... she belongs to my friend Karen. Here's a current picture of her:

In exciting news, I had two more start laying yesterday! One was for sure a Barred Rock, but who knows about the other one. The BR broke whatever egg was laid before hers (bummer), but it was a perfect little egg - yoke and all! I predict that I will soon be overrun with tasty eggs!

I'll actually be happy about a date change; I've lost all of my potential babysitters for Sunday.

They told me that they will ship a few days after the order is placed.

Unfortunately I have school on Saturdays this semester, that's why we had originally planned for a Sunday.

I hate having school on Saturdays.

I will teach anyone who wants to learn for half that.

Also, I've been there, bought one of my rabbits.... their farm isn't the cleanest place.

JUST got a call from Modesto saying the order would be here tomorrow, that shipping was overnight!

We'll see how long it actually takes lol.

It's supposed to snow at 2,000 ft in the mountains!! We'll see if it actually happens. It's cloudy, windy and drizzling outside. I just checked weather.com and it shows clouds with some sunshine...ummmm, no.

Cari, Hope your forklift guy has a place to store a pallet of feed if it's a downpour tomorrow!!

I don't think they are OEGB although similar nor are they serama. The white earlobes and body type seem dutch. Here is an example from http://woodcottagebantams.webs.com/dutchbantambreedstandards.htm

Tiegerrrrrrrlilly ,This bird is dead on!! dfdesigns , I'm pretty sure too now that the roos have a lot of Faverolle in them, if not all. Thanks! I know nothing about either of these breeds and wouldn't have thought to look up either of them.

That Faverolle you have is sure pretty. One more thing to want!
