My soon to be silkie's eggs are on day 19!!!!! I am hoping to be able to share baby pics sooooon!

Decided to save bantam eggs for one of my broodies. The are from a pen with a silkie roo and two MF D'Uccle girls. I am hoping eventually to have silkied D'Uccles but this first go round I am just hoping for a mix of healthy boys and girls.

So happy I get to play along and so grateful to Ron for the digest! Thanks Happy Chooks for hosting the HAL. These are always such fun and upbeat threads!

Hopefully I will get another broody in time for the Cinco de Mayo HAL. I am a greedy woman!
You are most welcome! Sally and Mike are doing a bunch of work too!

@HappyChooks I sure hope it's one of each and will definitely let you know!

Since we're all talking about coffee, I'll share my absolute favorite way to drink it:
12 oz of your favorite coffee
1 Tbs. butter
1 Tbs. coconut oil
1-3 tsp. honey (leave out if you prefer no sweetener in your coffee)
1/4 tsp. vanilla

Throw it all in a blender, and blend for about 20-30 seconds. It will get foamy on top like a cappuccino. Mmmmm.

I would have never thought to get a tetanus shot for a chicken bite. My Buff Orpingtons always bite my fingers and peck at my shoes and clothes. I've had gloves on all winter dealing with them, but come warmer weather, I might end up with a bunch in freezer camp if they persist.
That sounds interesting, I just might have to try it!

I do not help them so if they pip the wrong end and do not get out then they were not meant to get out. One reason for this is the breeder I am hatching for does not want chicks like that.
I do not help chicks out either. I'm breeding for the strong as well. I have helped them out in the past, and every time I have ended up putting the chick down for one reason or another.

So cute! My doe's going to wait until the middle of tonight to kid, when it's 8 degrees and snowing. I just know it. Why? Because she's a goat. lol
