Yeah. Especially when I thought I had a sick girl and realized if I lost one I'd only have three!

Whenever you want I'm game. Just as long as you take all the chicks!

So apparently my girl is fine. Went out yesterday and have no idea which one it even was.. And had all four eggs in the box.

Maybe she was just a lil gassy..

Here are two of my girls with the chicken saddles on. They finally got use to it, I think. Except, only got 5 eggs yesterday (out of 32 hens!) They either don't like the saddles or they don't like the new babies under the broody!

Hey can you pop in a few blues and a few black austrops, lets say 6 of each, how much will that cost?

you want 6 chicks from my australorps and 6 from my ameraucanas?

the issue there will be this, the only rooster I have is the ameraucana, so the australorps are gonna give us olive eggers. The blue ameraucana chicks, being a blue rooster and blue hens will have some potential to turn out splash, black or blue.

So let me know for sure you agree to take them and we'll hatch some for you.$6 each for the blues and $3 for the others sound fair? I paid $8 each for my blues and that breeder gets $40 a dozen for his eggs........which I think is crazy but if he gets it more power to him


@carcar - I'll take what ever chicks come from mine, yes.......what ever Kat doesn't buy

So, Stanley Roosterface seems to be recovering just fine. He's definitely putting on weight. And his energy is back. Blanche tried to escape the run and my knee jerk reaction was to put my foot out to stop her and hold her back, which obviously set her to sqwaking. Stanley didn't like that. He charged at me and tried to kick me, but he got a nice shove with my boot. Came at me again, but I hollered "Don't do it mister!". Stopped dead in his tracks and scurried back under the coop.

Rose had an empty crop 2 mornings in a row, so I released her to be back with her flock mates. All seems well in the chicken yard. While she was quarantined I figured out she was the ONLY one who's been laying eggs. Both the eggs that first day, were from her. I was wrong, Blanche is not laying despite the fact that she's definitely more developed than the 2 other ladies. I was convinced she'd go first. From the looks of things, IF does start, they're likely to be fertilized. I sometimes forget that she and Stanley were so sickly when they were babies that I have no idea if there's any long term effects to be discovered. She's definitely his favorite. Rose is somewhere in the middle development wise. It seems her pattern as of now is 2 eggs, every other day. While she was in the crate in the kitchen, the first day she laid one perfect egg and then a shell-less one. I assume because she was only eating yogurt that day. Either way, it's still kind of surreal that eggs are being made in my backyard. It was even more so today when I picked up the egg and it was still hot. So cool. In total, 5 eggs since the 21st. I'm assuming, for her that is a good thing? I sure hope the others start laying soon. It'll be just in time for the second dose of ivomec so we can have our 2nd 7 day withdrawal! Just our luck.

I guess good things come to those who wait, right?
