Utah!

Merry Christmas Eve!
Thanks for all the lovely compliments on our granddaughter. She is precious indeed :)

Chiko, I think you have a boy there, same as the others say the neck hackles are to spindly for a girl. Maybe he is slower to mature. A lesbian hen? Nah...maybe a drag queen :) He might like to play dress up when you are not watching :p He is cute! And I love that BL Polish of yours, she is awesome!

Red, yes my japanese bantam was awesomely sweet--looked just like that girl Cynthia posted. "Chabo" is their nickname, very sweet but broody like crazy. Loved her a ton, if i get into bantams again, that is the top of the list for me :) My Delaware is starting to lay a little bit bigger eggs--I changed the x in front of her name lol. She has laid every single day since September, right about noon. Such a good girl!

Sundance, what a fun day you had! IPADS for your GRANDKIDS?? You win Grandma of the year award. That is awesome, they are lucky boys!

Cynthia, love all your pictures, those babies are so cute! Did you have a great family party? Is your house still standing? I know how the big family get togethers go, I have HALF (6) the kids you do and it takes me days to recover lol

Alright, these are kind of more for Whittni, just because I promised her pictures when I had the chance. This is the santa hat I bought off her a little bit ago. Unfortunately, my girls aren't nearly as good about holding still for pictures as hers are. At least, not the two I grabbed.



Trixie was none too happy with me for this. She pecked my hand to let me know it, too. I've got this picture on my desk at work, hehe.



Chelsea is cute, but she's slightly ADD about holding still. Oh well. She was a good girl, anyway.

DRAG QUEEN? :lau :lau :lau :D I BET HE IS xD hahahaha I can't stop laughing.
 
Just wanted to take a quick moment to say Merry Chistmas!

PS I apologize for not being more social. I work in the financial industry and this time of year is very busy. I hope to have a chance to catch up sometime in the near future. I did see that congrats are in order for a new grand daughter!!

Sundance, if you're giving out iPads, I want you to adopt me! It sounds like your holiday is going really well. Sorry about your injured chicken. Which one? Any idea how she did it?


LOL at the Santa hat pics, Red.

Good to see you again, Chiko.
 
My hen with the chicks has been doing the weirdest thing. She acts like she is trying to crow. I don't know if cause she is in the brooder and doesn't have a lot of room and is upset or if its a mom thing. Its really weird though.
 
Gary, is she puffing up like this when she does it? My EE mix, is acting weird! She sounds/acts like she is going broody. I hope not. When I go in, it sounds like a raptor yelling at me! Everytime, she's on the nest I get cussed out. I moved her off of the nest last evening onto a roost. She had laid an egg, sat on it the whole time we were gone for our party. When I put her on the post, this is what she did. I had the camera with me..took a shot at grumpy. Maybe because she was asleep? I am guessing your mama hen is cussing you out for being near her babies. They sure can make funny noises.

She would puff right up and make a cussing me out sound. Leghorns, broody? Ameraucanas
once in a while, but she just started laying! She did lay again today, and didn't stay on
the nest, thank goodness..but she is clucking when she walks around. I'm just waiting.

That hat turned out awesome!

Merry Christmas eve!
 
Merry white Christmas to all of you and our fine chickens.

My girls are not happy about the white stuff and are staying in the run so far, but they did ok all day yesterday in there while the blowing show plied up out side. So much for free range, but the did (all but 2) lay, so no complaints here.
