Vicki - Posted on main thread, but here's another pic. Never be afraid of a scar. It just means that you were stronger than something that tried to hurt you.

| Oh, I'm so sorry about the chicks, Toni. John knows how to cheer you up though, except for stealing the bunny! Gotta not get emotional about processing the birds. Hard to do, and I would think harder for you since you're such a good care taker. |

| I'm sorry you lost chicks. As for processing. You are more humane, and thankful for the meal they provide. A small town has no secrets except itself |

| *sigh* my favorite chicken, that absolutely beautiful white Easter Egger, had been rejected by the entire flock and ended up dying from hypothermia today. I found her about an hour too late. I tried to revive her, but too late. Never be afraid of a scar. It just means that you were stronger than something that tried to hurt you.

On for a few minutes. Drove way too freaking much this weekend... went to Colorado springs on Friday and today (sunday). On our way home from the springs, was supposed to stop at a TSC or Big R... but we didn't. Too tired. Called Bomgaard's and they said that they had a special baby in stock.. a Prairie Bluebell. It's a "new" bird that Kay's only big blue eggs. But I was so tired I didn't want to drive all the way to Brighton.. like 31miles away. Figured that I could get them on Saturday after my dental appt. Made it up there Saturday afternoon.... and they were sold out of everything! A waste of a trip... but I did get 4 Easter egger chicks from TSC. Today, Sunday, was back in the springs, but got back to town by 3pm. Got the dogs & drove up north after calling all the stores in a 50 mile radius of home. Ended up going up to Lafayette... picked up 2 Lavender orps, then down to Broomfield and picked up 2 Starfire green Eggers and 2 Light brahmas. Go have a bunch of babies! My brooder is full!

| Toni, Seeing your baby chicks did me a world of good, but I'm so sorry you lost your favorite one. A small town has no secrets except itself |

| I need to take pictures but I got my original 4 that I started with this year (2 buffs, 2 rirs) outside. They were way overgrown for my indoor brooder.. they were NOT enthusiastic about going out but oh well! Never be afraid of a scar.

| Unfortunately, leghorns are known to be extremely flighty birds. They're the ones that factory eggs come from (they produce the big white eggs) and so breeding them has been targetting egg production, not friendliness or looks. They're great foragers and *do* lay massive white eggs. All I have a brown & green/blue layers as I sold the one leghorn I had. She was actually pretty friendly, so I decided to try it again.. let's see if I can actually raise a friendly leghorn. I did so, with bells on. I got 2 of them and have been handling them daily. And they're ridiculously friendly now. I was handling one of the larger girls 2 days ago and one of the leghorns got jealous that I wasn't paying attention to *her* and flew up onto my arm! https://photos.app.goo.gl/bUiKQYLnqX99WWQQA Never be afraid of a scar.
