Utah!

[Cynthia12]

Sundance, are you guys posting these pictures on other sites here on BYC as well? There are geese sites! I know they are in different states, but someone from this area may be just going to the geese sites, and not here to the Utah thread because we talk chickens.

Shinx..I laughed. There are so many posts on here, it's hard to keep up with them all. I actually chuckled out loud and pictured this little kid running around with a real pretty red and black rooster, you know, it had to be a Welsummer. When I think of a pretty rooster, that pops into my mind. I have a friend whose little boy carries around their Silkie like a cat most of the day. She went downstairs the other day to see what he was up to. He was sitting in front of the t.v. eating dry cereal from a bag, and of course, sharing it with the chicken. I bet he would take that chicken camping! I think chickens are getting so popular as pets, that not so much negative can come from the city about them..too many people love them...as pets!

Well, off to Cal Ranch. Bet ya'll can't guess what I have to go get.

Gosh

I hate going into the remote wilderness of the cedar city area. I went to some leadership thing and I couldn't even go onto BYC but I'm so happy to be home and online.

Whittni, welcome back to (in)sanity!

Glad you had a safe outing.

Janet, I slapped a link up on FB to your site. I'm hoping it will help drive some traffic your way, either for adoptions or donations to help the geese.

Sphinx, I thought the rooster thing was pretty funny. I had to read it to my mom (who didn't think it was as funny as I did) but it made me laugh.

Cynthia, beware the turkeys

They're cute. This little one I have here is such a cuddler. He stretches his head up whenever he sees me, like he's asking to be held. When I pick him up, he wants to be right by my neck and head, where he makes this cute cooing noise while I pet him. My boyfriend said, "You're not spoiling that turkey, right?" Oh, heck no. I'm just giving him some luvs, haha

Did I miss the post of where we can send the money to help with the geese?

Also, anyone interested in a silkie roo? It is that one I posted about. I don't know if there is a correct term but I call it golden colored. I heard that you can take your roos to Wheeler Farm. True story?

Yes, I am chicken crazy. Sitting on Waikiki beach looking at this forum and worrying about the chickens at home because I heard about their first lightening storm and I wasn't there. Good thing my boys are good flock assistants!

Look what I found in the favorite nest box today! A blue egg! Cleo has started to lay. In the nest box, and it's a hard shell egg..I saw her eating oyster shell yesterday and thought, why are you eating that you silly girl, you aren't even laying yet! She is now!

Her egg is almost as big as the BO and SS...but not as big as Miss Piggy's! Hope
they stay this big then start getting bigger.

Got myself a red sex link to go with my lonesome batam, that I got to go with my lonesome showgirl, then she doesn't make it, so my bantam needed
someone. That poor baby made the most sad noise this morning..I have never heard that before. Off to Cal Ranch I went. I don't want any more bantams like that, so got my red sex link that didn't work out the last time I bought one there about a month and a half ago..it turned out to be a boy! In a pullet bin. Happens. This one better be a girl.

hey guys, I got a blue egg! It's so pretty. This is the chicken from sonew. The black Ameraucana. Big muff and puffy cheeks, the one that faked me out for a while. I almost gave her up thinking she was a he!

Thank you Red!!!!!!!! Every little bit of money helps!!!!!!! There are links to my paypal, the goose rescue thread, and even a website set up about these beautiful geese on my signature line.

Cynthia,

on your blue egg! Sure wish my girls would get with the program and get busy. But really, I can't complain. I just love having them around for company.

BluJems---I will get you the BCM pullet, let me know if you want the clean faced Ameraucana.....I do not know how that affects breeding, or how many chicks would acquire that trait...I am getting the project marans because I am not breeding, I only care about the eggs, they have colors coming out that are not to her standards.... She keeps her breeding group very uniform.

Cynthia, soooo jealous! I want that blue egg! haha that is very exciting! Nice size too.
My GSL is in the nest today, I have all these squatters, what is up? They are taking forever. We are over 20 weeks on many, some over 25......c'mon girls!

Sundance, I think I am going Wed night instead off Tue night to get the birds, just so you know...I forgot it was Pioneer Day tomorrow and my kids have stuff going on. Let me know when you want to meet, or if anybody is headed this way holler! I am hoping you will come up, I have not gotten to meet you yet! I love meeting new chicken friends.
