We are finally on our way home and I'm so happy I get to see my chooks and kitty tonight! Last set of pics to share!
Even the birdies here are adorable with their long legs and webbed feet, they walk like little fairies!

2 y/o William arranging shoes before he was able to take himself down to the water

6y/o John making sand castles at 7:30 last night

Last day at the beach yesterday

This rest lasted approximately 2 seconds, but charged him up for 3 more hours Gotta love 2s!

And last but not least, sweet 4y/o Jeanine playing quietly in the sand <3

Quote: I have always found that being blonde was a good explanation, or an even better excuse, for so many things in my life. So far I am praying that the grey hair is going to look like highlights for a few more years. I am thinking that I may get highlights again. I just need to find someone that will pick the hair through a cap for me. I haven't been able to convince DH to do it yet.

Yep I am responsible for getting the Rustler and crew safely back to the barn. It doesn't hurt, that I like driving real fast too.

I found that I can make up some fairly wild stories to explain things to. If we ever get stopped, I am going to go with the story about being a natural blond.

Believe it or not though, my main goal in life is to never be part of the lead story on the 5 o'clock news.

Quote: Thank you for the pictures of your gorgeous girls. I am happy that your back too. I had been thinking about you recently, and had been wondering about how the girls were doing.

So I got back on here to post pics of my three hatchery stock.... (but, man, this thread is movin' today!)

Here's my girls - the same three in my avatar. Sorry the pictures aren't very good. I took them this morning. They are 20 weeks old (I think, I lost count). They're not in the mood to pose for me. It seems whenever I come out with a camera, they dive into the bushes.

They are Reber Ranch babies...

Caunnie - my EE. Not laying yet...

Ignore the lousy corn. We were gone to Idaho & Yellowstone for 12 days during the hottest days - I'm about ready to pull it all out. It looks bad. But, I haven't pulled it out yet because the chickens love to play in it.



Drama - my Light Brahma. She probably won't lay for quite a few more months. She's still a young-un in the Brahma world. She might not lay until next Spring. She's not showing much in the way of turning red yet. And, her feathers are still coming in. She looks a ruffled mess quite often (but an adorable ruffled mess!

). She's so funny looking when she runs. You can't help but laugh! And, she's FINALLY learning to fly. She gets a little bit of air now!



Rhodie, my Rhode Island Red - who didn't want her picture taken to save her life! She is my only layer. She has laid 1 each day for the past 5 days. She's laid 8 total.




This is what you can expect from $2.50 birds from Reber Ranch. I'm happy with them. I'm sure they probably have quite a few flaws if compared to the SOP.

That Light Brahma looks great for a hatchery bird! Too cute! I miss my Brahmas...don't miss the feed bill...but I miss the Brahmas...
