Yep! Almost 3 months old.

I've been swamped and haven't seen you much. How's Crissy these days?

I had her euthanized a bit ago... She was declining rapidly, splints weren't working and she couldn't stand at all. She stopped eating much and started biting again. It was time.

new arrival this morning. Left over from last week's broody trio hatch. I guess it was a late contribution to the nest that i missed. Hope they will take it too lol

I have Paint Silkie babies, finally!

Good morning all!
Is the pond flooded yet? I think it's rained enough here.lol
I hope it stops in a bit. I really need to go to town today. I don't like driving or riding when it's raining. Just don't do well out in it at all these days. :/

I just don't like driving with others on the road when it's raining... :/
Pouring here too...

and could yours be that aleutian color you mentioned the other day??

Nope, this is Aleutian...

Took these at the Dixie Classic last Dec...

Oh dear, I'm so sorry to have brought it up. I feel bad for asking now but I'm sure you did all you could and knew the time had come.
