The new girls must be sisters. They are identical to each other. So where are you at now? Just want to know just how far you actually are from me. Far enough away that I couldn't come get the girls I'm sure! ;) :lol:

Lots of good pictures. That dumb polish. Is it me or does it seem that all polish chickens are kinda dumb and crazy?

You sure have some pretty Nigerians. Did you say they are food or the kids will be?

ETA: I believe she lives in California, Marlow. lol That's not too far, eh?

Just on the other side of the country! :( Let me pack my bags and start heading that way! :lol: JK of course. Wish I could find a deal like that around here though.

They are sisters! And unfortunately they were impregnated by their triplet brother when they were about 7 months old. I have them now, and they are roughly between 1.5 and 2. They are awfully pretty. They won't be dog food. I promised the woman I got them from that they would not go for the dogs. She owns a large local boarding stable so I would like to keep that connection clean and happy :)

I am in Middletown California :)

I never wanted a polish, she was a freebie when I got the Cuckoo marans. I have since learned that they are exceptionally stupid. We did trim her crest because I was also told that it makes them "smarter" LOL

Or just less dumb. haha They really are not the brightest birds but they can be fun, just because they are so crazy.

I don't find it comical at all. Well maybe a little, mostly I feel bad for her because I really have no time for her idiosyncrasies. I just pull her out of whatever hole she chose for that day and toss her back in with the normal birds. I have been trying to give her away but everyone must be smarter than me:sick

I actually looked her up on FB months before we moved so I could start becoming familiar with the horse stuff up there. She just happen to mention she had these girls and was giving them away. I jumped! She also had a FAT donkey but man was he fat, he had to have a thyroid issues, it was fat on top of fat.

Goats got out.

Just the little ones. I had a weird feeling and went outside to look for them. My neighbor across the fence asked if I was missing two small brown goats. Of course I was...They were walking down the seasonal creek that flows between 4 properties. I ran down and scooped up one goat, they both made such a racket. The woman held one while I went back for the other, then I dragged them both back through the fence. They are SUCH DRAMA QUEENS!!!!!!! They hollered, and reared and threw themselves on the ground. I put them in the barn, and conveniently Drew got home from work and we continued our work on the fence. Hope our new set up works or I'm going to have to get rid of these little things for something bigger than can't squeeze through!
