You all are making me very hungry!
I ordered Black Australorps (8 pullets & 1 roo) and 4 Ameraucana pullets. I flipped a few-one distinctly stuck out one leg and so far the others kept theirs pulled in. I lost track of who I checked-one of the Ameraucanas nestled down in my hand and promptly fell asleep! How can you put them down when they do that?!
Commanders Jordan, Josh, and Moxon have PIPS!! Updates here!
please explain the leggy thing
Sandy you can't put them down when they do that.. it's like your paralyzed and can't move! Isn't it cute!!? I love it when they want a warm place and snuggle down and conk out.
edited to add link to leggy thing..

Harmony - great tip about pretending to be a hen with your fingernail. I am going to keep that one tucked in my chicken book on a post-it note to remember it!
Saanansandy - adorable chickies! Great pictures - such fun to see them all enjoying their new home.
Commander Jordan - the leggy thing is Harmony's chick flipping method and I am sure she will explain it better than I!
And thanks all, for making me want cookies.

Start reading where Harmony chimes in...
Sorry i was on the antique forum talkin about snuff box's
Flipping if it's right leg out it's hen it will be automatic she will stick it right out there sometimes hens will stick out the left
Roos both legs strait out.
I just got back from bringing my Dad to the drs. All I could think about was those little fuzzballs at home!! As soon as I got home I ran up here to see how they are! Happy as can be! Totally unaware that mom was even there!

Hey all, I posted a new thread with an egg turning question. Pleeeeez....go take a look!
New baby serama from this morning. Flipping indicates possible hen. Presently nameless. Working on that!
and here "she" is with her sibling, demonstrating the phrase "two birds in the hand..."
(I didn't have the heart to tell her that wasn't the way the phrase goes - she's just a widdle biddy chickie wickie...)
Cdr Moxon... time for a new thread... and I want to hear about the new goats.. Have I missed something somewhere???
The Gen.
Aye aye General! New thread here! All Commanders and ground crews report to new thread. General's orders. Over.

I'm a little behind ladies, but CONGRATULATIONS ON ALL THE NEW BABIES! They are just so cute I could pet them on the screen!
My Seramas are a week old today (well Blondie is!) That little runt is a HELLION in the incubator.
I think your big yogurt cup is a good idea catscan, as I have a few babies from Silkie that are due over the weekend!
Early bedtime for me tonight. Getting the "CRUD" that's going around.
Have a great night :)
