I'm really bad at naming chicks.

I'm pretty good at this. Give me a breed and a distinguishing personality feature. Ask WV about Daisy

My silkies aren't very bright...

Oh then I'm not one of your silkies. I didn't think about the brains factor. Given the brains factor, maybe a sebright? Sebrights are clever, pretty, tiny, and lacy!

Ok, I will continue with the chicken game as names come to me. If you guys have better ideas, I'm all for it. Silkie will give the sweet breeds you resemble, I will try to find a breed to match the personality, for instance:
NT Butcraq would be a guinea. Likes to hang out with the chickens, but really just looks funny and makes a lot of noise

There must be a whole barnyard here cause I'm a brown cow



I'll have to check out our local dump to see what the rules are!

 

[scflock]

The scary part is that I'm not sure if that's a good thing...

Take what you get

Given your understanding of recent conversations, I'm sticking with silkie

I got the end of Dorian and Sebastian's crowing contest.
I think Dorian shut because he saw me. pity - Dorian crows better cause he doesn't have a volume limiter on at the minute.

Finally got to watch the video... beautiful birds! I love them!

You would if it was 6'2 and 250. That's one bad silkie

Bearded silkie, at that....

I was ignoring the bad pun...

And just had to poke the bear some more...

How do you have fun without poking the bear once in a while?

I'm with you.... just gotta do it sometimes!

Ok, lockdown update. Remember I said 70% fertility? That's because I only candled the first row, had 2 clears, and stopped. I projected that for the rest of the set. Well, those were the only 2 clears

22 made it to lockdown. 2 I'm almost certain are late quitters, but not certain enough to pull them. There's no blood ring, but the development is a little less than the others. The eggs are too dark to see much more than a shadow, but I saw definite movement in 6 or 7. All I can do now is

I won't be topping Amy's last hatch, but I will be satisfied with 11, ecstatic with 15 or more, and triumphant with 20. My money is somewhere between satisfied and ecstatic

Fantabulous! I hope you are at least satisfied! Did you set on Sunday or Monday?

Pea chick. Makes a lot of noise and needs it's mama

My silkies aren't very bright...

Silkiecuddles is much more bright than my silkies too!

Right -- Dumb Dumb Daisy... (the family friendly version)

Set around 3:00PM on Sunday. Dumb ____ ignorant silkie young'un

 

[WVduckchick]

Speaking of names.... SC, I need you to name my banty frizzle cochin Roo.... You know the one you made a boy with the Day1 picture?
I've been calling him Prissy, but it doesn't really fit him anymore. He's barely 6 weeks old, but was crowing (or trying!) this morning, so....

He's a pretty sweet little guy, a bit flighty, doesn't mind being handled, but won't come to me... yet...

Here's a new pic of him. Give it your best shot!

Are you poking at me??

 

[Ravynscroft]

Take what you get

Think we'll get along just fine... a regular pair of porcupines...

Oh, hope you have a stellar hatch too... just finished off mine, 37 out of 46 that made it to lockdown...
