Woo hoo! I am having a great hatch! I have 4 of my very special silkies (mom is blue best of show, and hasn't laid for two years, because she is older, so I am very happy!) 5 rocks, 3 more black silkies from my black roo and blue/splash mammas, and 2 Ameraucanas! 1 more baby to go and I will...

Chipping away at my huge homework project that is due on Monday. This has been a 3 year assignment and it is crazy huge, so this weekend is major buckle down and finish time. Luckily I have my little silkie who has been unzipping for the last 5 hours keeping me company. She is right next to my...
