Roosters go first .... that is about 30, and now I need to trim off about 50 more.

I have 3 chicks ( a couple months old) .... 2 girls (1 blue and 1 black) and a boy (black). THEN, I have 9 more chicks a couple weeks younger .... and I haven't looked close enough to sex them. The oldest Giants are 1 year old Sept 21. (girls: 2 Splash, 1 Blue, 1 Black; roo: 1 blue, 1 black) Come an' get 'em !

I don't want no giants...I just want a pair or a trio of those silkied blue egg laying ones. LOL


Thor was the only giant that will ever live here. Except DeDe and Luna but they are just big boned.

Sheesh Kathy! Don't complain!

At least you and your DH are on the same page about the chickens. What I wouldn't give to have Denny even in the same book with me!

He gripes and grumbles, but the truth be told, he loves them too.....just not to the extreme degree that I do!

He would have no qualms about butchering any single one of our flock. I could never do that unless my bellybutton started rubbing my backbone, and even then, I'd cry like a baby! Maybe if he were the one who was taking care of them on a daily basis he'd have a greater sense of duty and compassion towards them.

And now I get to add three more beautiful little ladies to the flock!

DH grumbled about that too. Told me I was beginning to have way to many chickens. I just gave him that look like a dog that hears a sound that it does not understand! What?

Is that even possible, I asked? End of conversation right there!

But he loves me, and is usually prone to indulging me in my pursuits. Besides, all I have to do is remind him who's idea it was to start a flock in the first place. [all his]

Good lord Kathy do you want to see me divorced? I cannot take em I just said I wanted em. I can want can't it?

 

[NellaBean]

LOL, you all crack me up. SDWD chicken swap here.

Cetawin, how are those porcelain doing? No problems since Spike's last issue?

Kathy, I bet you could sell those silkied muppets for a pretty penny.....NOT TO ME....I personally think they are kind of ugly. Ahem. Not a big fan of silkies...I ended up with 2 silkie girls as part of a group of bantam ladies I bought. They are pretty darn funny but still. They look like they have HAIR. It's just not right ha ha ha.

See, I have no DH.......which means I have nobody to tell me to do anything. And nobody to help me take care of things, sigh.

You all know I Have been trying to downsize lately.....and my boyfriend did ask the other day what my goal was. I said FIFTY. If I could get downto FIFTY birds I would be happy.

His response, "........Okay."

See, I've trained him well. I used to have about 150, so 50 is NOTHING.

......and if you'd have told me 2 years ago that I would think having 50 chickens would be NOTHING, I would throw myself off a cliff.
