That's how it starts. So you add a pen for them, then you sell them in the spring. Now you have an empty pen, so you get another breed. Then you need somewhere to raise those young...
I'm being serious. That's exactly how I got to 7 pens in 6 years. Go ahead and say it now: No new birds. I say that every year. Did I tell you I bought Ameraucanas?
So do I go to an AA meeting or is there some kind of APA meeting to confess and start the 12 step program?

Why is it a dozen steps? Just like a carton of eggs...... focus Sid FOCUS! No new chickens. No new chickens..
 
I think I have a problem. Lock down was last night, and today I looking for my next eggs to hatch. My other chicks are only 4 weeks old. And this is about a week after I had wished I spaced the 2 sets of chicks further apart. Because after buying an Eco Glow 50 - I don't want to go back to using a heat lamp. I wonder how many chicks I can fit under a heating pad. 23 eggs made it to lock down, but at least 2 are iffy. Maybe I have enough, but hatching is so much fun!
I brooded 22 under a Sunbeam Xpress extra large heating pad last time, and 19 before that. They didn't spend very long under the pad. They were out in a little coop by day 3, and there were so many of them that they spent most nights sleeping in a pig pile beside the heating pad. But, they did pop in and out for warm up's during the day. That was in early May, zone 4.

Great read and a wonderful BYC member. Thanks for the link Friday and thank you for taking the time for the interview Holly!
Thanks SW.

Hate that any chance they will right themselves .

guess I was lucky with mine 700 mi. and not one detached air cell .usps handling must be getting worse. but who do you complain to. that would care? tracking a package is impossible. ordered a turner motor once again saw where it was shipped and from the sorting center and that was it .we need to all email the post master general a nasty letter.
Of course you'd have to E-MAIL... If you sent snail mail, he'd never get it!!!!

I took pics of my 9wk old silkies today. Do you know how hard it is to get them to stay still for a single shot? I'm thinking maybe I have more girls then I thought. I'll try to post from my phone (I order a new phone too!) but sometimes it won't let me post more then 2 pics at a time. I need everyone to guess for me, I have 7 that need to no longer be androgynous!

I hate posting pics from the phone. I did learn that if it kicks me to another page I can hit the back arrow to recover the pic, but sometimes it will totally log me out
 
Pssst.... Hey man.... You want some free Ameraucanas? Mess you UP
Those free Ameraucanas were good man. Do you have any SQ? Maybe one of those imported ones? Come on man I just need a breeding trio and I'll be good to go.

I always touch a part of the page that is not a button, banner or link and then I can navigate from there. Otherwise I get kicked off and the phone goes a flying..

I can touch anywhere on my screen and it will highlight the picture link, then kick me to another page. Just proof that BYC hates Apple
