Kathy's curse?

Post by baronrenfrew » Tue Nov 01, 2016 1:48 pm

What did I do to Kathy (WLLady) that she inflicts this upon me?

Another dark cornish says "trick or treat" at Halloween? Sheesh!

Then the goof runs outside looking for breakfast, so I scoop up the survivors (two alive, one dead, and two eggs not pipped suspect chilled at the wrong time). So I scoop em up and rush to the basement with my rickety brooder setup. Then go back for mama and set her up with the younguns.

all i can say is when i got the cornish they would NOT breed, i could not get viable eggs, or kids, so with a little bit of work.....see? it can be made better! clawton has some birds from me too and said he's got broody moms too! yay! whatever i did helped!!!!!

Look on the bright side--there's only two! So, three chickens in the basement for a few weeks. it COULD have been much worse (or better, depending on your perspective) --it could have been twelve!
