Bleh...I really want it but DH would be mad if I got it. He already told me we have 10 incubators out there in the coop!

I guess he knows more than I thought he did...LOL
I know I need to give it up and just enjoy my 10 girls and 2 roos but it's hard! Chicken Math and Chicken Addiction are REAL things!

Hello my name is Jessica and I'm a chicken addict. I DO know, however, that I probably won't hatch my own chickens' eggs next year, but will buy/rustle (

) some to put under a broody. I don't think I would end up loving the mutts my chickens would produce. I like all the breeds we have but I'd really only like pure bred chicks. That certainly won't happen if my Appenzeller Spitzhauben/EE x rooster mates with my GLW!

And have I told you guys I'm jealous of your meetup? I think Bothell is too far from me though; Anyone closer want to meet up?? I'd go as far south as Puyallup or Auburn/Fed. Way is alright too, and as far north as Renton; I could go east to Issaquah or Tiger Mountain or even North Bend. Anyone around those parts wanna meet up? I'm in Covington 98042

I'm in Olympia so could meet up n Puyallup depending on date time etc.

I agree - beautiful hen and adorable chick and momma photos!
This one would be beautiful framed and hung on a wall.

Nice work, Farmin Momma, and congrats on the chicks!

Thank you guys for all the very kind words regarding my pictures. Photography is one of my many passions! You should see some of the pics I took in Hawaii last year when we went there to get married.....Oh my gosh I have been married for a year on the 22nd of this month. Wow that went fast.

The last chick finaly hatched early this morning some time. Now all 14 chicks are hatched and healthy.

I have two SLW hens, the first I named Lacey (oh so original). The second, my broody has feathered legs. Also when I was naming her one of my favorite songs was on, "Fancy" by Reba M. So there it was her name is Fancy!

Can't remember who it was that posted a pic of the RIR rooster, but he is very handsome. I have one too, he is about 17wks and just started his sad pathetic crow.


I was wondering (if I can make it) would you guys mind if I stoped by for your meet up in Bothell?

thank you my roo just started crowing last week and my SLW are only 11wks

After having read people's posts about Coastal Farm Supply in Auburn, I went and think I have a new favorite place!

We could have a meeting there, shop for our chickens, and then go to someplace in the Supermall for a bite to eat or something.

I LOVE that place! I would love to meet up and do that, sounds perfect! And not terribly far from me either. I'm hoping my order of antibiotics comes in soon too, I have no idea how long it takes for the Denagard to arrive. Will call and maybe we can plan for something next week.

Brr, my house is too cold. I left all the windows open all night and now we're freezing, but I won't turn on the heater (like the kids have asked all morning long, LOL) because it'll get warm in the house later with the warm weather. I think it's only 64 upstairs right now, and at least 10 degrees cooler downstairs!

Sounds good. I have something for your family that I had planned to bring with me to the VF coop build, but didn't get to come over.
