Whew!!! off to the city for one day and 80 posts, really With all the new folks on here I think we've raided most of the other threads!

No attempt to catch up so only this, broody, I let mine go except I mentioned before she got kicked off twice a day and extra snacks in the nest. Winter temps- here -20 F fairly common in mid to late winter, -30 possible and not all that rare, even hit below -40 without the windchill but not often thankfully.

I thought Silkies where a little silly looking, but I just saw a picture of a Polish in the calendar competition thread. @bamadude I think your next breed has been discovered.

I thought he said his DW had forced inspired him to get both Silkies and Polish.

Since I found this thread I've been in the top ten list of most active users for 10 days straight. I think I might use this site a bit too much...

Quote: I thought it was just the Silkies? Well, those better halves can be quite persuasive with their nagging inspiring suggestions.

Have you seen the frizzled Polish yet?

Yup, those are freaky enough as it is. I'm more into the landrace look. Although I must admit, my favorite among our flock is a Black Copper Marans, Wilma. How can you not like a face like this?

That kinda reminds me of that creature in the dark crystal.

Which, the Skeksis?

My hubby has been referring to half-feathered chicks by that name for years.

This thing, although a lot cuter and nicer looking.
