Wow Finnie, pet-types really do do their job well!

Thanks for that Finnie. I warned my bro if any do hatch then they will be really ugly so he wouldn't want to peep.

How many chicks are there altogether?

Yeah, seems like it's going toooo well. I'm not sure she came out yesterday as it was colder than usual and just sat in there looking puffy and being fed by Skye. I do actually have a picture of some eggs but camera went bust on me. She came out once this morning at 7:00.

That's okay. Pity, they looked like nice birds. Have the tests come through yet?

I know!! I wonder if she will lay more?

Thanks for pics Finnie. You're having a blizzard?!!! It's 35 degrees here!

Agreed. Marigold was a window bird, too. lol

You should put a warning, sensitive people, DO NOT ENTER! Pics of deceased birds!

Yeah strange though. I think the lady gave it to me knowing it was a mutant, but she didn't know I collect strange animals. I have a smart sheep that followed me half way to school one day (it's a pet) and likes tomatoes and strawberries, then there's Ree-ject another chicken with half a beack and half an eye a kind of pet magpie that follows me around for revenge and Boof (deceased) who loved cuddles and crawling up my sleeve and now a mutant chicken!!!

Don't think you're going to get away with not posting pics Finnie!!!

Recently I saw an add in the paper for bantam chicks. Well we rang up and asked for three. I bought the last silky chick there and bro got a chick called Little Dude. The last one was a frizzle and eventually we named it TTChickadee (trantrum thrower chickadee) because it throws tantrums every time somebody picks it up. Any we got home safely with the chicks and I named mine Oddball. When I lifted Oddball up I noticed it had a deformed foot. It can walk quite easily. So I checked his feet. Chooks are supposed to have 8 toes altogether but Oddball has 11!!! Little mutant chicken. He gets around quite easily. I do have a picture but the camera chucked a hissy on me.

I'm not much help but I suppose they could be split.

We're lucky here. There's a wildlife santuary that picks up any of my injured animals. They had a magpie that lost most of its feathers, had bleeding along with a fratured wing. It has been released now and made a full recovery. I don't take wildlife to the vet.

Awww. Cute! Are you breeding him?

Oh. I hope none of the other birds have the same thing.

FIVE EGGS!!!!

Grrr. It was a cold day today and she wouldn't get off her eggs, so i couldn't see if there was an extra little egg.

I used to have that problem until I changed the dishes.

Join the club. Welcome! PS good luck finding a bird.

okay, what does a feather cyst look like normally?

okay, another one due today, maybe.

Thanks, I do know about candling, but I'm not allowed to.

No I'm not thinking she has stopped. Mum and Dad don't think she will lay more.

Sorry I'll try to get a good one.
