Cutie Pies!

Thanks I love baby barnies they are too cute. They are very easy to hatch they have no trouble coming out.

We should have chocolate (bantam) Orps in the summer. We are going to try and be very reasonable with prices as paying $30 a chick is extreme... Right now I want Jubilee Orps SO much but I refuse to pay $60+ for ONE chick!

I love my Orps as well the Choc is awesome especially a choc cuckoo now that I must have. I was gonna start a choc project with a little banty choc orp I have but I'm starting to see some LF become more available so I may just wait. I do have several cuckoo orps and might have a start on some lemon cuckoo orps. I got them as crele projects but they are missing some genetics e+ is what I need to complete them. Cuckoo orps are gorgeous anyway and still pricey so i'll hang on to them size and type is awesome from this batch.
