I posted on the thread, Kel.

Thank you!

I hear that Ron's have been turning into boys too.

Thank you!

I have plenty of them but could use more for some Chicken Dinner!

The Egg Farmer in Winters wants all of them this year. He is replacing his Hatchery Roos with the ones I am hatching. He loves the Australorps and is looking forward to the HRIRs in my Avatar.

I can see it now the battle of the sexes - let's see who has the strongest magic, Kelly or Ron.

BTW, I see more like 4 or so boys.

Michael says you need to stop posting on this thread.

I decided to take my nine little Icelandic babies out of the brooder yesterday. I set up my portable fence in the yard and put them in. As soon as I put the last one in they all squeezed through the bars and were running loose! I grabbed the net and started chasing. When I finally got one the only thing I could think do do in a hurry was throw it in the first run with the old girls. That run is baby proof. It took me almost an hour to net and trap them all and throw them in the run. By the time I was done they were running around like they owned the place! I closed the gate behind me and came into the house. I went out at dusk to collect them from the run and put them back in the brooders and they were all in the coop with the big girls! I blocked the pop door so they couldn't get back out before it closed for the night. This morning they are running and playing and drinking out of the hanging auto waterer. There's no going back to the brooder now! They are big chickens now. I have identified two boys and seven girls. That will probably change as the flat combs start to develop more. The straight comb guys already have wattles.

wow they look great. can't wait to see them grow

What marooooon calls at zero dark thirty (6:10 a.m. pitch black dark, that is) about a chicken ad at Tractor Supply????

I had three thoughts: something happened to one of our elderly fathers-mine is 92 and Tom's is 82; Ladyhawk had a major tragedy in her coop; or a wrong number. My DH says to the caller," I don't know. You'll have to call back and talk to my wife in the morning." The question was "How much are they?". That information is right under "Belgian D'Anver Chicks for Sale", $5 each. . Geez. Ijits abound.

Yep some people just don't have any common sense about phone contact.... I had a lady call me back about our honey ad on Craigslist at 11:30 PM a few weeks ago. Really?!?! I didn't answer and made it go to voicemail even though I was still up. I have 4 little kids, I don't need the phone ringing at midnight! I understand a text, especially if you work odd ours, but you don't CALL people you don't know like that!

 

[ChickensAreSweet]

I was always taught you never call anyone before 9 am or after 9 pm if you can help it.

That is what I think, too, if we get a call at odd hours...it's like, "Who died- oh dear!"

 

[drumstick diva]

I think everyone feels that way. I get scared half to death

when the phone goes off in the middle of the night. Heck even "Publisher's Clearing House" should wait for a respectable hour.
