Hope everything gets better soon.

Hope you and your family have a great Thanks Giving.

I was wondering if you have ever heard of this site called: Half.com It has games for really cheap. This is where I shop for my kids. Hope it helps you out a little.

I got some of your (or your daughters) jap eggs a while back. I got 1 chick out of them and he is just so handsome now. I had a hawk try to get my ducks then went after the pigeons but our runs are covered. But anyway the roos sounded off their alert and I had to go around calming everybody down and coaxing the girls out of hiding and that little jap roo was standing at attention all on alert and was just magnificant.

Just wanted to tell you how he's doing. He did his job today even though the hawk can't get to anybody the roos did their jobs. I'm so proud of my fellas.

I would like to get more of those eggs to try to get him a matching mate. He's got a barred oegb pullet right now for company. He's a black tailed buff. I guess thats what it's called. He sure is purdy.

Hey Marie, Did you candle the eggs i sent you?

I did a few nights ago. It was a bit early but most had veins starting. There where a few clears and one looked like it had an eyeball floating around.

I suppose that one is possessed or it's got a little alien in it.

No really, the smaller ones looked clear but I didn't take any out. I always wait till I see more development in the others before I toss what I think are clears. I've been wrong and dont want to toss any possible babies in the trash. I planned to candle again this weekend.

Did you get any greys out of yours? I have some in the grow pen that are looking like they're gonna be greys and I have a sizzle (frizzled) in the brooder that is looking to be another one. First time I got so many greys at one time.

Thats great. The last person that gave me an update said that all 9 of the eggs they got hatched. Thats a miracle out of shipped eggs. I made sure to give all the girls a treat. They got thanksgiving dinner delivered to each pen.

I was wondering if anybody could take a look at a thread about a sick pullet I have. She's intended to use in my sizzle breeding pen. A beautiful new color to add to the flock. She's been healthy all her 6 months of life then just today she came down sick and fast. I could use some advice. I may be doing all I can as it is but if I can do more I would like to know.
Here she is in her "hospital bed".
