Got the Ameraucana eggs & the Black Langshangs!

Ooh boy oh boy! 11 Ameraucana eggs in the bator as well as 7 black langshangs! This upcoming monday 6+ serama eggs are being shipped out (the swapper had a mishap that involved tripping while eggs were in her hands....lol) so she's collecting me more to send out on monday....and 6+ EE bantam eggs will be shipped out then as well from another swapper! :)

I have eggs due this sunday.... 6-8 of Henny Pennys (my coturnix hen) eggs, and 2 GC x GC crosses from my roo Wimpy Cowboy and whichever of my golden comet hens that are laying. I already have one of Wimpy Cowboys babies in the brooder his/her name is Critter. It looks just like a golden comet roo, except it's not a sexlink so it could easily be a hen :). I hope it's a hen! It's a cutie and very sweet and has a different body shape from my "pure" golden comets.

Toby my oldest golden comet chick (a roo ofcourse) is getting BIG! He's such a sweet boy too....I hope to have him replace Wimpy Cowboy. I love Wimpy Cowboy but he's an older roo and he's terrified of me, I'll probably keep him and let him free range with my other future free rangers. I haven't fully decided yet, but it's hard to decide when I don't have all the birds already.

Monday I send out $ for show quality Ameraucana black, blue and splash eggies from a breeder in washington state! :D They are beautiful birds! Then the week after $ for blue laced red wyandottes! My gosh I cannot wait!!!

My first Catawba Coturnix Quails finnally got shipped out, I consider those my offical birds from my OWN breedings....and they went for free to an FFA project! :) In Missouri I think? LOL! I wasn't able to send a lot but everyone I did send go there in great condition.....or one may have cracked I'm not sure she said none did but she only mentioned 7 and I am pretty sure I shippedout 8 lol oh well! Me and my brain!!!

Tomorrow I get to go with hubby to his rig for a few hours to watch him drill. I've always wanted to see them work because he tries to explain that stuff to me and I'm clueless it's like chinese to me....so it will be nice to actually SEE what "tripping pipe" means LOL! I'll be taking my camera :D

I'm getting some Marans x Buff Orpington crosses, some may be pure marans and pure orps too which will be neat and i requested any EEx marans crosses as well! :) They will be perfect in my future brown egg layer cross pen :D

After all of these eggs I AM DONE for a long while! I need to be lol! Or atleast I'm going to try to be! It's already going to be crazy hard because im going to need some extra brooders and brooder lamps! LOL!

Welp....nothing really more to ramble on about today :)
