Thanks! I can only do color pencils, or water color pencils

Which ones are you calling guys? The splash?

You're welcome!

Oh, I was referring to Almond and Hawk, actually.

Goodness, Marshmallow sounds like the ultimate girl! You're so blessed to have her.

Come to think of it, Night does bring a Wyandotte bantam to mind. I've got a couple, and they have a very similar face shape.

Oh! Whew! and thanks!

Yes she really is the greatest, thanks

I saw a black Wyandotte bantam hen at a poultry show about 3 years ago. I offered the guy $50 for her but he wouldn't sell. Now I look at Night and think, "Close enough!"

I think Marshmallow lays the cutest eggs! They are so round, and shaped like small acorns.

One of the Cochin chicks crowed today, I already knew he was a boy.

Almond is getting better at crowing, it's starting to sound like a cock-a-doodle-do

Another one of the Cochin chicks crowed, and another one made rooster tidbit sounds.

 

[Alexandra33]

Awwwwww.....that's awesome!

So far, only Piranha, Shy Guy, Jack, Joel, and Cobra are crowing; still waiting on Ling, Barracuda, Viper, and Cupid.

Raspberry is lovely!

Is she a Partridge Cochin?

Kind of silly, I refer to the tibitting call as "burbling."

Yeah, I'm weird!

How old are your chicks?

Yes she is a partridge Cochin

She layed a really cute egg yesterday, it had speckles on it.

Hmmm....the youngest are 13 weeks, the middles are 14, and the oldest are 15.

How old are yours?
I love speckly ones! Every so often, one of the Easter Eggers (I'm thinking it's Jaylin) throws her usual green eggs, but with chocolate speckles. Chocolate mint flavored, yum!

Another question: do your little boys sound like squeaky toys when they crow? Pirahna and Joel, who are both d'Uccles, sure do.

Real tough and intimidating, you know.
