So, sounds like I'll be taking a road trip to pick up 5 or 6 4wk old silkie chicks this coming Saturday, gotta make sure the foundation stock for my breeding pens is exceptional.

you should have seen and heard the hubbys reaction

he's really thrilled... plus the 7 growing in the incubator. But, we just found where we are going to put the grow out and breeding pens, so we'll be making more room over the next few months, no worries

I might cut back on my layer hatching plans for the spring though, so many silkies!
