Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

[Tumbling K]

Morning, Phil, Berts, and all. Berts, wish I had a 'mega sponge' to send to all of Texas.

morning sour, thanks.

Morning Pond!

Phil are you going fishing this am?

Bert-be careful on the roads--turn around don't drown!

Sour....do you live in the USA?

someone has been reading the flashing signs too much off of 59.......lol

Sorry Bert....hope it ends soon....
No fishing today I've been up all night....to much pain to deal with.....morphine isn't helping today...

you and me both.......it's slowing down my projects. lol. I think I'm ready to add another project pen. Blue egg laying sex links!

TAAAAADAAAAA!!!!

lol, actually I'm really excited about the possibilities, with blue egg layers.

Ravyn or Walnut, a white leghorn hen, with a CLB or AM roo, give me light blue eggs? I think so, if I have understood what I've read, but would appreciate ya'll's take on it.(this isn't part of the blue egg laying project, but may be the project ofter.)

Ole Mare I hope you have a better day today too!

It is already headed that way -- I have the house to myself this morning and a little peace and quiet is always a welcome thing, lol.

to you, Phil, I hope that you find enough relief today to allow for some rest.

Ha, now there's an idea!

Well guess everyone is still sleeping....lucky bunch...

Nope - was up nice and early but had chores to do before I could even sit down long enough to hop on here and see what everyone was up to.

THAT is why I stick to just a few lovely places like the Pond

Exactly - there have been plenty of threads I have read, started to reply and then decided to back away slowly instead...........

I can't remember who was selling SBEL (super blue egg layers) which are a Leghorn cross, or sapphires, which were a leghorn/CLB cross.

Both are supposed to lay large numbers of pale blue eggs. Not sure how pale though.

 

[WVduckchick]

that's funny I think I see you everywhere?

Because you like me that much

Good morning WV....

Mornin Phil. I think I got in the shower just after that post, so I missed your Good Morning message.

WV---I think I am going to wait a few months before I buy a bator. So I'll take you up on that offer then...if that's ok.

I think I need slow down a lil.
Chicks are so exciting but I need to wait till the kids go back to school after the summer to take on a new project. We are going to have a busy summer and I really would probably sit at a bator 24/7 tie they hatched and neglect my humans!

That'll work.

And chickens do tend to cause us to neglect our humans. Just ask my husband.

(actually, no, don't! lol)

thanks. I think there may be alot of pretty egg colors I can produce using the white leghorns. Not to mention, super good egg production.

Ooooh, I think there were some on the 24 hour auction thread recently!

I'm gonna go look, thanks.



eta: oh, I could breed those F1's back to the blue egg layer, or green egg layer and possibly get darker colored eggs?

Yeah, sure. I've been up since 4:30 this morning after going to bed at 1:00 am. Just too keyed up to sleep. So I've been putzing around the house. Katie slept right through me picking up and dusting the living room - and she's sleeping on the floor in there!

Hi BertS - your idea is something that i am potentially considering, but using brown leghorns (can't seem to get WL) and Araucanas (rumpless) and i recall reading yesterday that the system you describe works.

And a cranky granny Blooie is even worse!
