Holm, those are some pretty silkies.

Thanks Banty! So far I am pretty proud of them even though I didn't breed or hatch them... Butbi think they are growing really good. We will see how they do at the fair and hopefully state fair this year! This is the oldest Cockerel.

They're in nice condition, too.

Is it just the photo, or does that cockerel have a slipped wing?

Yesterday I went to the feed store to place an order for some turkeys and they were no longer taking orders... So I ordered them from Hoovers for $5 something a piece instead of the $7.49 at the feedstore. Has anyone ever ordered from hoovers? I didn't have to pay for shipping for some reason? They should be here later today or tomorrow morning.

I am not seeing the slipped wing, on Ole's great grandson. I do see Ole's tail though!!!

What kind of turkeys?

I have ordered from Hoover's a couple times. They are pretty good, except at sexing.

I thought he did but I asked Minnie and she didn't think he did. His wing feathers are still growing though so maybe that's it
