Wow, don't look at my computer for a few hours and come back to 38 posts!

Welcome to the Utah forum Mammahen, I think you are going to like it here. There are alot of fun people on this forum and I have learned a ton.

Speaking of learning alot --- Holy cow Birdman, what a cool site!

Thanks for letting us know about it. Now, off to explore the wonderful world of surplus.......

Sure, sure, I will believe this when I see it LOL

LOL...you will have to come over and see, oh wait..wouldn't that be a great picture? I could take a picture of them in the black garbage bags before I take them downstairs. no one would know I had taken them back out would they? Nah, I really am done with this! At least until the summer is over. I have the last little showgirls to come. They will all be muffed, bow ties. I candled, I have around 7 looking good. Hard to hatch!

I love it when that happens. When I saw that Sundance was from T-ville, I went

And welcome to Mamma Hen! (Sorry I missed it before - I'm spacy)


Woohoo! Go Maggie! My GLW is really starting to concern me. Her face is getting awfully red, and I don't have a nest box set up yet........eep! Better git busy!

Also, Cynthia, thank you for the offer. It's very sweet of you. I would love that little Exchequer if you're re-homing her (I've got -3 chickens, remember? Ha!

) I do think that I need to cut down on my griping here, though. I'm sure plenty of other people go through their share of hard stuff, too, and just never say anything about it.


Awww!


See, this is why I told my family I never want an incubator.

Oh, By The Way RED...I have an incubator for sell, you want to buy one??????!!

Cynthia - This is the color of the blue eggs from the black hen. All six are from same hen. The blue roo came from the same breeding line, so I'm hoping for blue egg genes. See how the bottom corner one is darker on the end? That's the spot of the good coloring I was telling you about, the spot of robin egg blue, but not ever the whole egg.

Same eggs in direct sunlight: Or not - its not gonna let me post that shot. Its on my member page if you want to compare. This is my last batch, unless I can bear to part with a bunch of babies and find a great deal on a line of larger built/orpy maybe looking blues. I've seen larger Lavs - what happens if you cross Lav and Blue?

Oh yeah, I see that blue spot you were talking about. That is blue! All of those are a nice blue. I'm loving all of those eggs. And, are those Welie eggs, or Maran? I'm bad, bad memory if you already told me that you have Marans? Those are pretty dark eggs!
My black Ameauracana, is getting red in the face, I am hoping she will lay an egg as blue as yours! How fun it must be to go collect eggs!
