Hi guys,

I'm back from the Congress and wanted to share my Babies with you all. Some did better than others and one I had to scratch b/c my cockrel had a big scratch on his comb and an even bigger scabby thingy not looking pretty.

Here are some pic's. Sorry so pic heavy but, I'm so proud of them and wanted to share

P.S. the judge mis-marked her card. She won 2nd in her Black Non-Bearded Pullet division and got Res. Var. out of all Black Non-Bearded silkies.
Here she is again below giving me the stink eye for not giving her enough food!!!! lol




And here is my poor little awesome white pullet that would not stand for the judge so he would not place her. Talk about being really bummed!!!!

Here's one of my other gals that did not place either. I was bummed about her too but, I still love her

Ohh and lastly I forgot to take a picture of my little black bearded silkie pullet! I'm a bad momma I guess!!! Here is what she looks like and she won 2nd in her divsion out of quite a few black bearded silkie pullets!!!

Just cause I forgot doesn't mean I don't love her

Thank you. I really like him. He tends to be a loner. He's really sweet.

Beth G-- great pictures and CONGRATULATIONS on your wins! Looks like you did really well. I agree, that little white pullet looks amazing. What was the deal with her not standing? Was she acting flighty? I have a black pullet that is all wings and sharp feet the second you try to pick her up. But she does calm down. I was worried about how she behaves... Anyway, looks like you had a great time! Definitely not a waste of your time!

SagerSilkie, that's great that your little guy is feeling so much better--- and so quickly! I wonder if it wasn't him being sick, but maybe built up humidity and dirty chips in his pen?? I have no clue, but that is REALLY fast for him to recover like that. It usually takes a lot longer. Have you checked for mold?

 

[sager:)silkies]

yep no mold i think he just had something stuck in the bottom of his throat or something like that not to sure but once i gave him gaillicymin or however u spell is but he was fine the next day after giving it to him
