Those are darling babiez! They look sooo soft and snuggly!

I've gotta bunch of brug cuttings I can send you if you have some room.. I have some really pretty ones.. I'll Dmail ya..

clematis, this is just the first ones to bloom i have several colors of them to climb my awening scrolls. second plant to bloom gave me a nice dark blue flower today. the others no blooms yet.

i got mini rex and lionheads too but i'll have to try to get pics of them tomarrow. would love some brug cuttings shoot me a d-mail.

this is one of my iris's called tiger honey. this is the first it has bloomed for me. boy r they pretty and smell like icetea with honey,lol.

this is another tb iris and it's first bloom for me too but i can't think of the name of it. it smells like black jellybeans.

this is a no id tb iris but love the smell of it. it smells like grape popcycles, yummy!!

How cool is that!! Looks like Spring has really sprung there! Wow.. My Clematis is done.. I missed pic time..

But here is Snowbanks! This is year 3 and she finally blessed me with blooms! Very slow grower.. I have better than this to send anyway..:)

love the brug, the color is beautiful!! brug trees don't look like that here. u mostly see whites and yellows, never seen one so full looking and leafy before and that is the prettiest brug i have ever seen, just ellegant looking!!!

woot!! i did find some chickens to post i forgot i had cell pics so will upload some chook pics for yas too. love to see more pics of ur brugz!!! anyone else got garden pics and new babies to spoil show us ur pics too!!!

this is my polish who should start laying soon, i can't wait!!! i have 2 pairs of them some blue and some black and a white pullet.

Here is my favorite brug.. I grew it from seed. It's a double pink.. Yeah, you have some coming your way! :)

Here are the Seramas I hatched today.. (Just to stay with the poultry theme)

edited to add..

I scared them to death when I turned off the light.. they were all in flight in this pic.. Funny the white one has a good reverse.. LOL

here's a new showgirl pic, i think she might be fluffier than my lionheads,rotfl.

hey i got a question if u collect seeds from ur brug. u grow them r they the same as mother plant or do they not come true from seed? i have always wondered that and i have heard different replies. oh my r those darling!!! love the pic!!

Unless you control the pollination, nothing can be guaranteed to come true from seed.

Oh wow.. That is one big ball of fluff! How cute is that!!!

Brugs don't breed true.. They are not self fertile. I grew about 300 to get that lil double pink. I was addicted bad for a few years.. :) I have a really pretty double orange too.

Here is my orange seedling..

Here is a darling mini yellow/orange.. I call it ET.. I love her so much!!

Okay.. I'm sorry to hijack your thread.. I should have never uttered the word brug.. it's all your fault for the pretty bloom pics!!! This is Peanut.. a very nice breeder.. double pink.. I'm sending a cutting of this one..

I'll quit now..

oh my zz those r all just breath takeing, i love them!!! no worries at all i could talk gardens and chickens forever they r both my favorite hobbies. sides i asked for u and others to share pics in one of my posts above,lol u must of missed i asked that.

i haven't been able to be here much for many reasons so i'm enjoying all the pics!! i love when u all share pics so don't ever be sorry for a minute post away. i've been dredding the 17th and 22nd of this mth to come i have to take my hunter who is 7 to children's hospital in pittsburgh for more testing(sadated mri and erg), not sure if i told u before or not but he was born legally blind, partial color blind, with nystagmous and other eye problems. in a few mths he must go back to the pediatric eye specialist for follow up after tests. then we may have to take him for more testing after that for genetic testing in phili or youngstown ohio depending on the test results from children's. i'm very worried and scared for what may lay ahead and what else the new tests will show so u r helping me to keep my mind off that some and i really appreciate it.

this is one of my new lionhead does miss ashlyn don't think i showed u all her before yet.

Thank you Silkie.. I love brugs and chickens.. I love to take flower pics too.. I have a cheap camera, but they still come out pretty nice.
Yes, I know about Hunter, I didn't realize the appointment was getting so close. I know it's hard, I can't imagine being in your shoes. I know you have a huge burden to bear as far as fears, finances, future, etc... don't stress till you have to. Cross the bridge when you get there.. (easy for me to say) I've got some major stuff goin on too..
But really.. Nothing is gonna happen tonight.. So for now we can enjoy the fluffiest bunniez on the planet and beautiful bloom pics.. and crazy chickens.
Miss Ashlyn doesn't even look real.. that is the softest soft I've ever seen in a photo.

Love the rabbits but that lionhead is truly stunning. You have been dealt a very tuff hand, Silkie!! I promise you I will be praying for you and your son. I have really missed you. Haystack

This thread is just full of beautiful and adorable pictures.
Thanks for sharing them all.
Silkiechick hang in there. Life is full of trials and challenges and we learn and grow from them. It is always hardest when a child is involved. Hang in there and know you have an extended family here at DG.

Love the Silkie pictures and the bunnies too and of course the flowers just add a beautiful splash of color. My mother loved flowers and grew some of the most beautiful flowers. Our yard always looked like a flower garden.

Thought I'd throw this picture in the mix. I just love when babies are snuggled with their mommies snoozing. Just too cute. This is our Silkie Charcoal and one of her babies.

Silkiechick.. I just made up a package...LOL Get ready!

I love the rabbits! I miss mine, had to give them all away. love the brug too its a very unique looking plant. I've never heard of them before.

awe, thanks u guys we love our bunnies too! zz i haven't had time to answer u yet but will soon as i get the chance to, ur a doll thank you! so glad everyone likes the pics, i love to see when u all post pics too!!

well i'll be up early tomarrow to head to pittsburgh children's hospital for hunter's next test. i thought it was the sadated MRI first but tomarrow is the ERG test. so it will be a long day gotta leave here early and won't be home till night time by the time we get done. i'll keep u all posted how things go. please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. gotta run i'm still trying to get things ready for tomarrow for the trip plus stuff for the sitters for all the kid's who will be staying home too.
hugs,
silkie
