Yea, I'm kind of obsessed... Admitting it is the first step but I don't need recovery πππ
Unboxing Fuller's Silkies eggs. I am so grateful and filled with joy, love and hope. Thank you for such kind words and this amazing sentiment! This is why you are good to your silkie sisters, they help cheer you up when you are down.
Thank you Catherine Fuller at Fuller's Silkies and Kyleigh Gaulke ! You both have such beautiful souls and I am blessed to have you both in my life and thinking of me through some difficult times.
Btw, I'm so sorry for the shaking, I'm standing up against the cupboard in my chick room and it's hard to hold the phone, stand and balance myself and open the box lol.
Did anyone else get one of these adorable silkies from Walmart??
This little gal was the last one at our Walmart and because of my back being shot my wonderful husband decided to get it for me! β€οΈ

I swear this is my favorite part of breeding silkies. Blow drying their super soft silky feathers β€οΈ
Not to mention Johnson and Johnson baby wash makes them smell good and even softer! What does everyone else use to wash their feathered babies?
I absolutely love my Bear. He is the sweetest and cutest little rooster. He reminds me of my Ash, oh how I miss him, but nevertheless, I have Fawkes, Ashes baby now to continue his bloodline.
Back to the subject here, Bear. I get back from picking up 3 beautiful silkies ( will post pics here shortly) and I get to witness the most adorable thing in the whole wide world. My bear crowed for the first time!!
Make sure you turn your audio up here folks. Isn't that the cutest little silkie crow you have ever heard!! I didn't think I could love this silkie any more than I already do.
Misty's First Baby Chick!
I'm always excited about babies!!! Every hatch is honestly like Christmas!
I have a ton of black right now though. I'm like a sea of black. Who loves some black silkies??
I did hatch a few whites but they will be head back as growouts for now.
I plan on taking some pics later today and posting them for our available chicks.

It's Turkey Tuesday!!! π¦π¦
Let's talk turkey! β€οΈ
Edward, the turkey you see here is a heritage Bronze Turkey. He is considered a heritage breed because his lineage dates back to the 1700s when his ancestors were considered wild turkeys.
Bronze turkeys get their name from the bronze colored metallic sheen on their feathers. They are much tamer than wild turkeys and are good protectors of their flock.
The weight for a young Tom, like Edward can be as much as 25 pounds. This young man, is about a year old now and is close to that himself. Bronze turkeys are great pets as well as being raised for food. They are a great dual purpose turkey. Have you considered adding a turkey to your flock? π¦π
Did you know we breed turkey here? Edward has fathered many turkey poults and will for years to come. π£π€π₯

No more hand mixing my chicken feed! I am so excited about this. I've been wanting something to help save my back from bending over and holding the can a certain way, etc when mixing my feed together. This auger has absolutely saved me!
