New Birds Coming!



Look at one of the BEAUTIES I will be getting next weekend as long as the weather is nice (if not the weekend after)! This gorgeous hen is a standard blue Ameraucana! I'm also getting a Wyandotte hen, a Light Brahama hen, 3 EEs and a Road Island Red hen! They're coming from a pal of mine who I got my second stock of Coturnix hatching eggs from! I didn't realize how close we were to eachother, and he offered them to me so I just HAD to say yes! $25 for them all thats' a great deal! They will be apart of my "mixed-mutt-flock" that I'll hatch eggs from for fun and eating eggs. Also next weekend my first batch of chicks should start hatching (or atleast pipping), AND i'll be picking up somewhere around a dozen hatching white silkie eggs from another breeder!

The guy I was going to swap coturnix for bobwhites called me today. Instead of bobwhites it's going to be a trio of standard game chickens (he should be sending me pictures of them soon), annnd some mixed barred rock hatching eggs!!! WEEE!!!!

The golden comet and road island red hatching eggs I've been selling, the first two shipments got to their new "owners" by the second day! Only one egg was cracked in only the one package! WOOT! I send out my third one on monday to another Ny'er! :D

The snow is supposed to DUMP on us tonight starting around midnight...if it's pretty I'll snap some pics to add on here. :)

It's so nice having a lot of positive things coming my way this time of year being so cold and boring. :)
