Hey Bigzio, if you get some spare venison.. we could use some burger meat!!! YUM YUM.

Here are my new girls in QT right now.

And a cute pic of my cross beak pullet.. she is SOOO curious and so cute, eats like a tiny horse too.
Edited to add, I just got confirmation that there is a HIGH probability that Hawk is a Belgian Quail d'Anver bantam!!!
WOWOWOWOW

Another beautiful day just a little cooler. Well I have given up on one of my silkie bantys coming home ! She has been gone for almost a week and I don't figure she is coming back . She refused to go into the coop at night and I tried to find out where she was roosting but could never find her.

Dr.h sorry if the scraper didn't work out for you I always had great luck with them . You got a razor scraper with replaceable blades? Well good lluck it sounds like you have your work cut out for you.

Wichch sorry to hear of your health problems that sucks I know how you feel . I just had a ct scan and emg done on my right elbow and I find out Friday if they are goin to do surgery on my arm again. Good luck!

Chris,

Sorry to hear about your elbow issues!
Let me know..
OR any one else?!

Thanks Dr. H! I do like my new job, I could do away with the getting up at 5 AM though. I'm a night owl at heart.

Not much to report; somehow I managed to get some yogurt made night before last....... and I am working on my cake for the scholarship event at the University. Something with chocolate and Kaluha.....

Enjoy this beautiful day everyone!

Good Morning All! BL4 never had a cake cake with Kaluha in it sounds really good! cd no it was a 4" heavy duty ice scraper that I sharpened. Forgot about you saying a razor scraper, that would probably work better. But after draging in my compressor and trying various tools found that a stiff wire wheel on my heavy duty drill works the best for taking off the fiber then using my ice chisel works a lot better. Did as much yesterday that I had done in 15 hours before. Hope your elbow is going to be OK! Thanks for all your advise even if I don't remember to follow it.

WCc neat birds, that quail is really cute! Have a great one!

Hello all,

Our new order of chick are here!!!

They are soooo cute! I have never seen bantam chicks before and now I have 27 (I think, but will recount) assorted little bantam fuzz butts! I can't keep them all but it will be hard to get rid of some of them. Oh and we got SILKIES!! I have been trying to get one for my daughter for a long time and wasn't having much luck, or they were to expensive. So even if they are hatchery quality for only .99 you can't go wrong.

So now I will have a bunch of bantam roos and pullets available in a few weeks too. I'm becoming the crazy chicken raising lady. I can post pics if anyone on here wants to see them and help me guess on breeds and colors.

I would be interested in seeing the chicks!!

There is a small animal swap in Monroe WI.
I posted it here

Here is a link to my post with the pictures of the chicks for anyone that wants to see them or wants to help guess what they are.

Iwill be getting 5 california whites and 5 red sex links tomorrow for the monroe swap. Their owner doesn't have time to gr a combo of CA's ad RSL's = 10.
Does any one here want to buy 1 or 2 or more.
I am buying them from her at 4 apiece, so would sell them to WI BYC'ers for that much. They are young, some are still pullets, have small combs so have not matured yet or much.
Let me know and I can set any aside for you.
