Yep they're fine.
Then she stood in the middle of the coop and "brawwcawcaww" as loud as she could, stopped to consider the acoustics, then came back out satisfied.

Such a cutie, I wonder what color you will be?

Between you, @BY Bob , @Ponypoor and @RebeccaBoyd - you are really tempting me!!!

I do not need polish. I do not need silkies.

Repeat after me: I do not need Polish, I do not need Silkies!

I really can't keep them with my larger birds - I have too many to not worry that someone will bully the littler ones...so: "I do not need Polish, I do not need Silkies!!!"

Darn they are so cute and cuddly though!

Alright.

"You need Polish. You need Silkies."

Alright.

"You need Polish. You need Silkies."

Autocorrect made me say that.

Silkie hens, make the big girls their minions!

You DO need Silkies. I guess while your at it you might as well get a Polish as well. Eventually you can have Polkies....which you most definitely need.

Clyde who is all black is bigger than Georgie who has that grizzled reddish neck feathers.

I had thought that Clyde would be a frizzle but seems she isn’t. So who’s baby is she? Who knows.

Please be girls!

I have a suspicion that 5 of my 6 silkies will end up looking somewhat similar to Georgie. Georgie is partridge.

My bbq went very well. The steaks were perfect. I also bbqd ears of corn baked potatoes beans , smoked sausages with sesame seed buns. Steamed squash, Macaroni salad and ice cold watermelon for dessert.
Exquisite meal, if I do say so myself. And my friend was very pleased with the results. Yes I was outside using the new bbq. (In 106f heat )

All Tucked In

The ramp worked so well I missed them going to bed tonight.

Glynda has the chicks tonight. Last night Lady Featherington had them I assume because Glynda was wet. Nice to have a spare mum when something goes wrong.

Good to know I was tired of calling her that grizzly girl- people started thinking I kept bears!

In that case you also do not need OEGB bantams

Gosh they are so cute though!
