The 4th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long

[CherokeeFlats]

Ooh! Ooh! Ooooh!!!! They have Lavender Orpingtons!!! AND Blue, Black, Splash Orpingtons!!!!! And BBS & Lavender Americanas!!!!!! *wishful sigh*

Oh I know... the list I could come up with would cost a fortune but I did get a yes on the Partridge Rocks.

Question: What does BBS mean??

Well just got back and luckily it was only gastritis, one shot, some pill and we got 144$ wrapped up. Came home and our pit bull mix is crying his hips are bothering him again, I gave him some Motrin and will watch him closely and probably have xrays done on Tuesday. The old man says we have too many pets and need to stop bringing them home. I almost think he is right, but sooner or later Zoe will want a boyfriend. But I think we can wait a little while on that one. OMGosh if someone would have video taped me trying to get that Pyr in the car, you guys would have laughed your butts off, one she's only been in the car two times prior to this time, I tried to trick her in one side shut the door fast and tried to run to the other side before she figured out that door was open, but no she made it before me, got her back in and as I was about to shut the door she escaped again I grabbed her hair ( lucky for me it is long and she doesn't get mad at that) she pulled me down in the snow leaving me wrestling her in the snow, snow down my shoes and down the back of my pants, finally got her in and started down the road, only to realize I left my phone and the vet address on the kitchen table (wasn't our normal vet, they only see small animals on Tuesday and Thursday) all and all she did well, she was very good at the vets walked in nicely and left nicely, and the old man was with me there and could lift her in the car. I really need to start getting her in the car more often. That was my day, how about yours

BBS means blue, black splash

Glad the pup is ok! You just never know sometimes. Bet the trip would have made a funny video! I'm sure you didn't think it funny at the time.

Meanwhile, I am SO jealous of you guys getting pretty birdies! What the heck, I'm getting 28 chicks in April. But I'm itching for some non-hatchery birds now! And so the chicken insanity continues.....

Quote: He's close to 10 years old. I think what happened was he likes to play frisbee and the BF took them out yesterday and he ran a little to hard. I feel so sorry for him, we've had them checked before but no x-rays, I think it is time to.

Man, this thread is like a new puppy. You can't leave it alone for even a little bit, or it gets away from you

My Icelandics are getting a little more frequent at laying. I sure hope they keep this up into March so that I can have a nice clutch for hatching! You watch, they'll all go on strike on the last day of February...... I'll get my eggs one way or another, even if I have to squeeze them like ketchup bottles!

Only kidding. I wouldn't do that to my babies.

BTW, I've got lots of eggs up here in Ontario. All hatchery mutts. I can't ship though.

 

[Shellz]

Yeah, great thread, but have to go after this post for the night! Ooooh, Icelandics! Too funny, ketchup bottles!

Beautiful eggs Sally!
