By the way, Juliette my splash silkie isn't broody anymore (she was on her roost since January 10th

) But it's my fault because I just let her stayed there but eventually moved her to my clinic coop for 3 days and then no more broody. From now on I will know what to do lol.
I cracked her egg this morning and it is fertile, so I am very excited because my new roo is doing his job. I will finally be able to do some test

Oh boy slippery slope! Now I'm going to need cute duck intervention! I'll need a duck 101 class soon, all the duck eggs I got from Renee at the meetup are fertile including the weird black ones. Renee do you recall the duck breeds? How about the "Raffle Duck" eggs Gail won?
The lav Silkies are doing great, thank you so much! If you have any more girls... I would love one. ;>

I have a dark blue olive egger pullet (8 or so weeks) and a wheaten ameraucana x cream legbar pullet who has been laying for 6 weeks (light tinted eggs). These girls are for sale or would exchange for a welsumer pullet or BCM. 

Also....
Not on the scale of Gail (only one Brinsea 190 going), but I have/will be getting:

Direct from Dick Horstman's exhibition lines as long as they hatch, limited numbers of the following. These are great for 4H or anyone who want to show this year.
bantam silver polish,
white crested black polish
blue orpington
bantam mille fleur d'uccle
bantam buff brahmas

Also cream legbar chicks and some fun mixes

And from purchased eggs a small number of:
Isbar chicks,
wheaten Ameraucanas
blue marans

Emily has BLRW and mille fleur leghorn chicks.

Let me know if you get an extra white crested black polish cockerel.. very interested

Sorry I just sold all my girls, but I will get some more in the near future

I am still looking for RIR and Black Jersey Giant and Australorp eggs - 12 - 24 of each near the end of March

The girls are laying again
.. but I am not sure how many rir eggs my two pure girls can crank out without them being too old but you are definitely welcome to the ones I have! I should also have pure buff orp and pure lavender orp.... so maybe I can makeup the difference.

whatever your birds can deliver I will take. My flight is a week day this time - not till 11pm though but I may have to do a evening run the day before - last time was cutting it too fine.

my planned silkie supplier has just become no longer my silkie supplier due to personal issues so now I am in the market for silkies

If any of you will have silkie eggs in a decent quantity laid between march 23 and 27 I will love to take them accross the Pacific ocean to be happy little broodies in a far away land. I can pay a fair price but I have huge expenses so I cant pay premium pricing. to offset any discount you offer, the chicks will send you regular postcards (think of them like unicef kids) telling you what fun they are having on their beach.

ideally i need 24. they can me mixed colors, just need to be purebred.

pm me please

WFF has white silkies, (and almost anything else

)

She is SUPER nice too

I would love to give you some but I am very far from getting 24 eggs in 4 days lol. I am sure you will have a better chance with Gail and her 308 eggs
