She (I'm going with she unless proven otherwise) is a little cutie. The crested lady is a gold laced polish. Her poof is usually much larger, but she keeps dipping it in the water and then dragging it through the stall dry until it cakes on the end of each feather, weighing her head down. So, she go...

One of my broody silkies managed to hide a trio of eggs from me until they were too far along to swipe from her...

So here is the first day old hatched overnight on Thursday - rooster possibilities Mille Fleur D'uccle or White Crested Black Polish and (I think) the black silkie hen.

Ooh - they are lovely. I have had Mille Fleur D'Uccles for about 6 years and I have my first ever broody Mille as of Friday. Only one problem. I have a gorgeous Mille Fleur Roo, but as of a few weeks ago, I also have a BCWPolish Roo (that I thought was a pullet). So, I'm not sure what I will get (: ...

I tried it a few years ago but the graft didn't hold. The potato branch grew too quickly for the tomato stem.

I cut Poblanos into strips, blanch & freeze them. Since they usually go in recipes chopped fairy finely, th...

That explains the thickness. The egg white was really thick too - jello consistency.

Everyone looks good in the coop. Ate their oatmeal like wild things and fought for the spots beside the roosters up on the roost. Who ever dropped the fart isn't admitting it!!!!

I think that a quail egg is 2x as large! Lol. Boy, that was hard to crack! We had to get a knife & smash through! When I tried to crack in on the side of the plate, I thought that I had broken the plate! I did a double take when I saw it on the ground - thought that I had lost a button off of a shirt.
