Remember Jadee

Remember Jadee the little silkie that I hatched out and raised her in a fish tank?I had such a hard time trying to get her into the silkie group she was afraid of them and didn`t know that she was a chicken,finallly we moved the fish tank out in the coop and she stayed in it for a few weeks untill she got used to the others,Well she layed her first egg this week.When I went out to check on them and get the eggs she was laying on top of smoke another silkie that has gone broody and there was her egg that she had just layed.Glad she turned out to be a girl.

And this is her white baby,she has 7 eggs under her and they started hatching last night,not suppose to start untill tomorow but I know silkies are sometimes early.She is a good mom so far.Its cold here so I put a heat lamp in with them.I just love baby chicks! Will post more as they hatch

Oh how wonderful, congrats Jadee and Green!

That looks like a blue! How cute!!! Great pictures!

Hope its a blue

WOW!!! Love the pic's. I agree with you Green, I love the babies, there is just something about the babies I can't resist. I also agree with ZZ's, that baby looks just like the blues I recently bought.

Last Sunday and Monday I hatched out six new seramas, five were from brown to buff colored but one was black. I sold the five but kept the black. ZZ's this is my very first solid black serama I have ever hatched, I'm really hoping she/he stays solid black. Also I only have three of my blue silkies left, two died. But the three are doing very well. If I get one hen out of the three I will be happy...Hay

Oh My Gosh haystack a Black Serama How wonderful! I dont blame you I would have kept it too! So sorry about the loss of your little Blues. :0(

I'll keep my fingers crossed for your lil black baby! Too bad about the silkies.. I think they are very prone to Merecks.

I love Silkies.. (even 1/2 silkie now) LOL

Chicks are so adorable!

Here is a picture of my new lil black Serama. This child is so hyper. I can't put she/he down and get a pic cause it won't sit still for one. It runs across the table the second you put it down. It paces and chrips without stopping unless I or Karen hold it. It's a spoiled pistol, no doubt...

That is an adorable kid!

Awww it sure is! Karen your a cutie pie too!

Hi Karen!!! So good to see you! :) Cute lil black baby! Feisty one too!

Hi Karen,Hay babies are so cute

Jadee has 6 so far,I thought she only had 7 eggs so one must have gotten layed in there before I got her closed in,will wait another day or so to see if they hatch.The little brown one must take after her,she looked like that when she was little.

Finally, a pic of the lovely Mrs. Hay! That little baby is spoiled LOL

Little Jadee with babies of her own, how cute!

You can see the partridge markings on the lil brown one. They are so cute! Love the pictures!

Love the picture

What color would she be?I thought blue but she has some brown in her

another

I don't know what color you'd call it, but those are excellent pic's. Your birds are beautiful, and talk about fluffy butts. WOW, I really love those pic's. Very talented photographer...i'd say. Spring, I think is going to finally arrive. It was snowing here yesterday but this morning it was forty two degrees and the sun is out and gorgeous today, I sure hope it lasts more than one day...LOL...Thanks for the pic's green...

Its 50 here right now,rain and cold tomorow.I took about 25 pics and those are the only ones that really come out good.
