Yes a pic on a solid would show the colors better.
I do love the naked necks!
I have some showgirl eggs coming in the mail. A gift from a friend!

No.. this is Catscan's hatch.. We gathered all the roos to put them in a bachelor pad so we wouldn't get attached... but naturally, I fell in love with this lil Turken. :)
I'm just tickled that they can go outside for a romp and play.. They run around and crash into eachother and do lil "poppin cock fights" and it's such a crack up to watch!

The Delawares that were hatched on Thanksgiving went outside for the first time the day before yesterday and they were so amazed they froze and stared at the ground for a few minutes.. that was funny too!! Then the next day they did the running flying poppin cock fights too.

Have I ever told you guyz how much I love chickens?

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Thank you Harmony. I'm a grinch this year. I rather sit with my chickens than fight the crowds and shop. Holidays are depressing when the kids are grown..

I've gotta get pics of the new babiez that I hatched. I named one Marie. She has to be a Sagittarius cause she is a traveler, she gets out and goes down the hall and doesn't care if anyone walks up.. Here is this TINY lil chick.. and a HUGE person walks up and she looks at you like.. "Yeah, you're in my way" LOL She is the cutest ever.. I'm scared to love her too much for fear something will happen to her.

This MIGHT be Marie.. but I can't remember.. She is much bigger now and easy to recognize.. Just open the door and the first one to fly out is Marie.. guaranteed..

I think you may have mentioned it (giggle)
I love the looks on their little chicky faces when they touch grass for the first time.
How are the ones from your hatch? Olive, do I hear him in the background? hehehe
So a bachelor pad? How cool, and a great idea. Its hard to get rid of them once you have been with them for so long.

Awww! is Marie a Barred Rock? She looks sweet!

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Sewin.. she is a Marans cross. I so love that frozen in time stance they get when they see something new.. I laugh so hard.. it's especially funny when the naked necks do it.. LOL

Olive is somewhere in the group.. For all I know, Marie could be Olive! I sure hope so.. but I had to give up trying to find Olive... there were 4 that were an exact match... Let's hope Marie is Olive, and she lays those pretty olive colored eggs she came out of.

Elbridge, NY(Zone 5a)

Oh that would be wonderful! She did have pretty egg coloring! Yes!
Marie Olive ZZ. What a name! hehehe
Oh the Marans have beautiful eggs anyway dont they?

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

These were purchased as good layers, so yeah.. I am hoping for some nice eggers here.. I don't care if they are as dark as the Marans are known for.. Just good eggs is fine with me.

Here is Krystal with Alvin.. Remember Alvin?

Is Krystal ready for the holidays? She is precious too!

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

Thank you.. Yes, Krystal is perched right in front of her gifts.. she stares at them just like the chickens stare at something new! LOL


I have several in the hatcher for Friday and Saturday.. I am not gettin my hopes up on this hatch.. there wasn't much movement..

Elbridge, NY(Zone 5a)

Really? I just put two eggs in the bator and my show girls should be here soon! Today would be good! Before Christmas.

Sounds like the temp is high in the bator? that's what I was told when mine came early...twice now, ain't it?

Lodi, CA(Zone 9b)

I'm not sure.. Catscan incubated these and the last ones.. I have one of her bators right now and it's at 99.5 and I didn't touch it.
