Finally sold my last Extra cockerel & I feel like I can breath!!!!
I always start feeling the pressure this time of year, because I don't want to be stuck all winter babysitting a bird I don't plan on keeping.
I "almost" kept a blue Showgirl cockerel with a nice looking head poof, but I don't have a female & an extra pen to keep him.
He is now the king on a 12 acre farm in Coburg.

BUT ~~~~~~ my Blue showgirl hen has laid 6 perfect eggs.
My last hatch had the cutest little Blue STRIPPER chick "MAGIC"
I'm collecting eggs but I "REALLY, REALLY, REALLY" do NOT need any more chicks.
Hubby might have a damn Heart attack.....IF I told him what I'm thinking (*O*)

Guess I should be happy with having only my little MAGIC
Just don't know how Anyone an resist hatching when this is the result!!!!!

Remember what Andy says "Resistance is futile"! Only 6 doesn't seem like many either?????

I must say these enablers are heartless and relentless.

If you hurry up and put those eggs in the incubator you can sell the hatched chicks at Mt. Forest

hmmmm NOT SURE if you all are trying to Help OR trying to see how cray I am?
Who the heck hatches chicks just so they can sell them before finding out which ones are Marvelous?

I had a heck of a time selling the last 5 cockerels....I'm afraid of getting stuck with extra cockerels over the winter!
PS - Sandy, that sounds like a plan "IF" I could part with Showgirl chicks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm in major LUV with them when they are cute...& not fighting.

Thanx everyone ~ "I think"
I have 7 eggs today ~ gawd give me strength (*o*)
