Yum!

I went grocery shopping and look what I found when I got home.

The other egg didn't look quite right when I candled last night and I am afraid that it will be a lonely only.

So I got it this!

I hope they both hatch!!!! But what a nice surprise to come home to. Going to be a late night for.

Someone was talking about Mareks recently on this thread. I ran across this today.
This chicken vaccine makes its virus more dangerous

[COLOR=1B1B1B]“Previously, a hot strain was so nasty, it wiped itself out. Now, you keep its host alive with a vaccine, then it can transmit and spread in the world,” Read said. “So it’s got an evolutionary future, which it didn’t have before.”[/COLOR] [COLOR=1B1B1B]“One way to look at that experiment is that shows vaccinating birds kills unvaccinated birds. The vaccination of one group of birds leads to the transmission of a virus so hot that it kills the other birds, said Read said. “If you vaccinate the mothers, the same thing happens. The offspring are protected by the maternal antibodies of the mother and that allows the virus in the chicks to transmit before they kill the host. So they transmit and kill the other individuals.”[/COLOR] [COLOR=1B1B1B]By the end of the article they still recommend the vaccine.[/COLOR] [COLOR=1B1B1B]http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/tthis-chicken-vaccine-makes-virus-dangerous/[/COLOR]

I saw this a while back and heard talk from others local to me said they dont. So I did not vaccinate my chicks.

My girls... No mine... No mine! Lol

Oooooooo!!!!!!!

This is one of the coolest things I've ever witnessed. I let the girls out and Punkin, my young EE, went right for them! The older, more laid back Big Guy, dark brahma, was more of a gentleman. One hen squatted for Big Guy, but Punkin saw it and a square-off ensued. After they settled down some, I peeked around the corner and Big Guy had escorted one of the girls to the wood line. I saw her submit, and he was very gentle with her. 3 seconds and he was done! Lol So now the girls are flocking around Big Guy and poor Punkin keeps chasing. I thought Punkin would be the roo to keep, but now it looks like if one has to go, poor Punkin is out of luck. This will be some good entertainment tonight.

Such a lover!!!! Poor Punkin.

It's Friday night and it'll be alright, cheers!

It will go well with this cauldron of chilli that's cooking.

Cheers!!!!

We have bacon wrapped wings in the oven!!!

Chickapee: You're going to give that little chickie some serious imprinting issues with that stuffed coon. The first time Rocky comes calling to your coop looking for some chicken nuggest, that lil chick will throw the door open and invite him in like some long lost relative!

WV: good pics. Yeah, a good roo with MANNERS and a good body is a rare package!

SW: I'm guessing that you'll not be doing Mareks vaccine???

I'm honestly on the fence about it. But I tend to trust the system God setup. I'm sure my hatchery chicks were and I'm not too worried about it.

For both of them.

None of the three that I have that have reached mating age has EVER been gentle with my hens. It sounds like someone is slaughtering them when they mount.

Yum!

Well...not hard anyway. A little biting is not bad.
