showgirls

[AHappychick]

hey angie I am going to do a photo shoot of mine tomorrow. I cant wait to hear what you say about them, I have some I am pretty sure are boys and others I have no idea still. I also have the most beautiful splash silkie and partridge I think. anyway everyone is doing great although dispite my best efforts I lost one to cocci a month back

everyone seems better now and I am hoping that that will be my only loss. Thanks again I just love them

Cocci? I'm so sorry for your lost, are they on medicated starter feed? I would love to see the photo of them.

OMG!!!

The perfect chicken for me -- a Showgirl!! I want some!!!!

My husband laughs at me because I like the fancy little puffy silkies, but I also love my 3 little naked neck chicks, which he calls "ugly" chicks. They have grown on me and I think they are darn cute little naked chicks!

I just discovered Showgirls thanks to this site and it's a blend of my 2 favorite types! I've got to have some!!!!

I am sending hatching vibes to you!!! I really hope you have a wonderful hatch.
I know you will love the showgirls mom2chicksandpups. I do love all of mine. They are so soft and sweet.
I hope all is going well with everyone.
I am sorry Ahappychick about the loss. I also hope that is the only one.

no not medicated (I do the organic thing) although I ended up using the Amprol after all

and lots of organic powdered goats milk. I was very upset to loose it but try to focus on the 10 other healthy ones

pics to follow this afternoon

Angie has the best showgirl eggs, the majority of them comeing out showgirl is 80 percent, here is a couple of mine from her.

OH that is sooooooooo cute!!

I keep looking at my eggs in the bator for some pips !

I think I need to go outside and work in my garden today so I won't go stark raving mad !

Sometimes I think I do indeed have some madness in me !

Why do I torture myself like this ?

I do love all my sweet chickens but I sooo want just a couple of these cuties.

If my hatch doesn't go well I will have to resort to hatchery chicks as I can't afford to buy eggs over again.

Please send me hatching vibes as I have my favorite in the bator showgirls,silkies,and wellsummers !

OK IM out the door for at least a few hours of fresh air and digging in the dirt

I will check in with ya all later this afternoon.

ok I finally got them all up

please tell me what you think

and what colors they are some are almost white but I guess they are considered splash? and what sexes although most are obvious or at leats some seem like they have huge roo combs already so I am assuming they are the boys. Who should I use for breeding? Sorry about all the questions I do have some ideas but really value your opinion

I had 3 showgirl chicks and one silkie hatch.

Two of the showgirls died very soon after being born.
