Poor Chica, maybe she can pay an escort service and get the attention she deserves.

Chica looks like she is playing to the camera more than Louis. She sure is trying hard!

Rinda I have a nice CL cockerel coming along that is looking good color wise - your rooster is nice! What egg sizes are you seeing? I really need to take some pictures of my SFH's too.

Very pretty breeds Rinda.

Louis is just playing it cool.

No kidding I just saw a book called "Turkey Mind Control" yesterday on amazon.

Kathy, are you sewing curtains yet? I got so lonely sewing down in the basement, that I moved everything upstairs last night! Well, Michael moved the big stuff. We have three empty bedrooms on a separate wing so I thought, why not? We rarely have guests anymore, especially a crowd. I took the smallest of the rooms, the one without a closet. The daybed is in there for a quick nap, plus a television. There is a bathroom across the hall and a built in ironing board four steps down on the stair landing. Who's does that?????

I love your sewing room! I like having a dedicated room, just so I don't have to pick up and put away my mess every day.

No, I have not yet started sewing them. I am getting excited though. I wanna deck out my coop, and just enjoy a small flock. Did your girls have any problem with them? Did they go inside and lay their eggs?

Despite Chica's best efforts, Louis is clueless.

Oh, come on Louis! Get a clue there, Buddy!

First "clean" batch was only 3 eggs and 2 blacks hatched. They are just over a week old. The point I lost them at last summer was 3-4 weeks so I'm not ready to call it good yet. I have another batch due next week of 10 all kicking good in their eggs. They will be the true test batch. I'm getting 2-3 eggs per day from 2 hens and 1 pullet.

Just finished updating my website for spring, here are some of the pictures I took this weekend!

Ameraucana flock



My FIRST Barnevelder egg!!!


the double-laced Barnies.



BCM eggs- they are a little darker in person than the photo shows.



The black Isbar cockerels are just STUNNING!


Blue Isbar pair


Cream Legbar eggs- the pullets are laying up a STORM!



Cream Legbars, of course!


Exchequer Leghorns. I have tried and tried to find a good source of these, had one but she fell through so these are just hatchery birds for now.


Jubilee Orpington Pullet!


Swedish Flower Hens


My pretty little splash Isbar pullet

She's my favorite I think.

I absolutely love your pictures, Rinda! Beautiful flock you have!

I only have them up in coop#1 but I got two eggs in there today in two different next boxes!

x2, wouldn't that be pretty painted on the front of a coop. If one could paint and draw that is.

I'm not that good I am afraid.
