Chickengirl- I'm tickled to death you stopped by my place! My little ones are Silkies- I've always wanted some, and this year my local feed store had three left, so I bought them all. I also have Aracaunas, and my big rooster Hamburger stays with them. (I did a post on him back in Feb- you have to see his picture.) I also have a bunch of banties (bantams) of all different breeds. I love seeing pictures of your chickens- please keep posting them! You've got some great blogs going on- you must be one busy chick! P.S.- Sorry to hear about your ducks- thankfully everybody is o.k.!
Your blog is very cool! We got a pair of Silkie mutts two years ago, but sadly, they were both taken by hawks. But we got two more white Silkie chicks for free last year, and they turned out to be a gorgeous Silkie pair! (My photo is a pic of them.) We have an Americauna hen, and about 30 Ameraucana chicks. I'll check out the picture! I love banties. We have Old English bantams, which are surprisingly sweet, but I'd like to start raising different kinds of bantams. I will post as many pics as possible! And thank you very much for visiting.

I love chickens and have plenty of them. It all started in 2006, when I started the 4-H Chick-Chain project and received 28 chicks. We continue adding to our mess of birds each year. We received 44 little chicks in the mail in late March of 2008 and also hatched chicks for the first time, and those little babies are now grown hens. This past year we bought some different breeds from the Co-op, along with 4 ducklings. Our chicken breeds consist of Polish, Cochins, RIRs, Ameraucanas, many many Silkies, and lots of other fun breeds. We have six ducks, who go all about the backyard like a gang. Our total amount of poultry is currently around 40.

They look so safe and cozy sitting there! Those nasty dogs better not come around again.
Yeah, they were pretty comfortable while they were in 'rehabilitation'. We let them out today, and tehy liked swimming a lot!
