I can't stay away from my Cochins, even when it is really cold I go out to hang out with them. I've got my chicken's first 8 chicks in the garage, can't stay away from them.

MJ : While most of us are being bitten by the flu & stomach virus Bug, you have been bitten by the extreme cutesy tutesy Foo-Foo Bug................... will your DH be getting any brutish Man birds to add to your flock, just for fun LOL.

AL

I make no appologies! My chickens aren't cutesy, they are stylish. I deal with scarry critters all day at school and my chickens are the anti-venom. DH says no chickens for him, instead; a bass boat. A few Cochins equal a bass boat?, that must be chicken math.

Hey Al, I am thinking about borrowing my neighbors small round metal incubator, any suggestions on how to set it or run it??? How many times a day should I turn the eggs, assuming it doesn't have a turner! What temp should I try to hold it at? Do I need to worry about moisture? Thanks oh mghty incubator guru!!! LOL Lynn

MJ ............... That Rooster may be Foo Foo but he sure looks cool and kind of menacing looking at the same time, he has a great tinted sheen, very nice bird.

Lynn................ PM me and I will be glad to help if I can.

He belongs to Nocityboy. The only bird I have that might be show quality is my Partridge bantam hen (and maybe my Partridge roo)

- nice lacing and decent type
My Mille Fleurs are decent type but still a project and the Lavender/Self-blues have a long way to go.
