Wheaton what? I have Blue Wheaton Marans and Ameraucana. The Marans won't be available for a while but I have 2 Blue Wheaton Ams. breeding age. Need to ask Cheryl if she wants one but both might be available. We aren't very close to you though.

Could you possibly post pics of the two BW Ameraucanas cockerals? When and if you have the time. I'll get an updated pic of my boy and post today. How friendly are these two that you have? If we do trade, do you think I'll have an issue when my daughter is out helping me? lol She loves her chickies, so gotta make sure that the boys that stay are friendly enough and know to back off. lol My Wheaton cockeral is super friendly, he's had alot of time being handled.

WOW I get home from work and I have to go back TEN pages to see what everyone is talking about today

So the topics are
(1) Spiders : they don't bother me but the DD and DW FREAK out if one gets on them

(2) Rats: I have only seen ONE rat in the four years I've lived here

We smelt something bad (dead) in the bath room. I cut a hole in the floor under the bathroom sink. and there was a big DEAD rat. he came up beside the water pipes. Now I have those sticky glue like traps beside ALL the pipes that come up into the house. have caught a few mice but NO rats. I put some mouse traps out in the barn last week. In the first THREE days I caught ELEVEN mice. In the last fout days I haven't caught any and NO signs of any

(3) selling eggs: I sell mine for $2.00 a doz. mine are a little on the small side. I sell only to friends

some have offered to pay more. But I said no. I get enough to cover my feed.

(4): Split chickens: ???

WA4-Hpoultrymom. Kim said she understood your explanation about the spliting and the genes thing (I doubt it) Ya lost me in the first sentence

All I know is if I pick up my white leghorn out of the nest box, there is a WHITE egg there

If I pick up my RIR out of the box, there is a BROWN egg there.
Thats ALL I need to know

(5) Kim going to the spa: Body scrub ? that don't sound fun . My wife gets a massage once a month . she buys those massage oils then gives me a massage once in a while.. a couple months ago she got her little bottle of oil and gave me a message. she picke up her bottle to leave and she started laughing. I said what ya
laughing at

. she said I picked up the bottle of SHAMPOO by mistake

I'll let DH know - "Babe, we gotta sell the house. I need more chickens." Yep, that sounds logical to me - just hope he understands!

If you get it to work, let me know how. I've been pushing DH to do this as well! And we are on 2.3 acres out in the country, but on a foo foo street with too big of a house. I wanna downsize the house, and upsize the land. And a big barn is a MUST!

My chickens are laying extra large to jumbo sized eggs.

I love a massage. I used to get one once a month or so. Wish I hadn't stopped.
