Show off your Delawares! *PIC HEAVY*

34 years? Wow Tom is such a cradle robber....for shame on him. Gotcha covered Cyn

Scott, dear man full of it....we negotiate position.....you know in the household

I refuse to negotiate such a serious thing....it is always my way.

Scott, truth be told...our negotiations are more for fun than anything else...the man would really give me anything I asked for if it is within his means to do so....which is why I rarely ask for much. Example...when we were married he said "Babe what would you like for a wedding gift?" I said a new vac and a W/D set please. The next time I asked him for something was 3 years later and I said to him "Ya know I think I want some new jeans". hahahaha But negotiations are so fun.

Now for the news of the day and why I have not been around this rainy saturday....Casca has met his first skunk.

Soooooo we have had three tomato juice baths, a lavender dish liquid shampoo and a oatmeal doggie shampoo bath....I swear I still smell skunk and probably will for the next week. eeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwww Poor guy went chasing a deer and I called him back and just then heard a yelp and got a whiff of skunk spray. He got a good blast that soaked his face, head and nck so he was verrrrrry close to Mr/Mrs/Ms Skunk. He came running home throwing himself down and sliding all along the way and when he got near me I busted out laughing and said "Welcome to the country puppy, let's go find Daddy so he can get a look at you too"

I saw this BSA last night and it was $200+ then (which I thought was absurd)....almost $400 for a dozen hatchin' eggs!! I could build another coop for that much money!!!

They are very pretty birds, but, not for $400.....

BUT, Scott ..... It's cheaper than jewelry!

You could probably retire!

 

[Cetawin]

Sorry....I agree with Scott....I ain't spending no $400 for eggs unless they are 24k

Beautiful birds though.

If I could just convince the DW that they would be "hers"....that might work. She loves Pepper, L'il Bit and the rest of my Del gang, but she could care less about all the others

Oh, come on you guys .... Let's partner up on them! Yeah .... Dellie partners!

I saw when it was first posted, but kept my mouth shut, since Kathy is NOT hatching anything for the rest of the year!

And I am virtuous.

Poor Casca!!!!! That is a bummer, and yes, you will smell skunk for a while. Several days, in fact.

I think I read (somewhere) that they are bred to lay 24k eggs, but currently they are a project, and are only laying 14k eggs.

Oh, but wait ..... what about that marrital negotiation we were talking about?

 

[speckledhen]

Poor, poor Casca! After the lawn damage we've seen here during the past week, I sure hope we don't have a skunk! Kes is afraid of almost everything, but she would chase a pretty black and white kitty cat, LOL.

LadyHawk, Does that tomatoe juice really work? I hope I never have to try it!
