I got a little of everything in the turkey variety. I don't plan on making anymore though as they will be downsized and probably eliminated eventually. They have been fun for the last 8 years but I'm finding them to be too much for m e with all their noise. I still adore my big blue Tom though.

I love the sounds that Spazz makes. Finally integrated the quail chick with the other quail. So now Spazz and Ariel are in her old spot. Soon Ariel will get prepared for integration with the Ameracaunas. Spazz is going to miss her but that's why I ordered the eggs. Hopefully I have a good hatch rate from them. I'm going to nix the auto egg turner and do it by hand this go around. See if it makes a difference.....

Funniest thing just happened. A police officer showed up at my door wanting to know about my chickens. Why? Because he wanted to get some himself! So I spoke to him for about an hour, I showed him my coop, we talked, it was great.
That's awesome! I love enabling others! It's totally worth it! I know some of y'all dont, but nothing tastes better than chicken you raised yourself. (Only the excess roosters get harvested). And the entertainment is better than anything you can find on tv!

3 more days! :weee
Yay!!! I can't wait to see the babies!

So exciting. :celebrate

I'm just gonna hatch these 7 purchased muscovy duck eggs hopefully, than quit for the season. I candled the 2 eggs my oldest muscovy hen has been setting on that she laid. As I figured none are any good. I gave her 2 from the batch the other hen is setting on so there will be 2 moms hopefully. She has been determined and I wanted to give an old lady a chance.

Wondering if anyone else is getting that BYC is offline today? Sometimes I can see and sometimes I can't.
