    They hatched!!!!! (DUW!!!)
    Dakota, my gold-laced Cochin went extremely broody on me, so I let her set some of my Silkie bantam eggs - look what hatched!! Two little black Silkies!

    Here's she is being a good surrogate mom...

    Eggs from some of my standard girls, including a nice double-yolker from one of my Turkens:

    Some of the "mostly growns" - these girls should start laying in July or August...
    "Powder" - a Speckled Sussex

    "Wendy," the Salmon Faverolle, and a yet-unnamed silver laced Wyandotte
    http://bloodpythons.com/chooks/wendy1.jpg

    One of the Australorps, both silver laced Wyandottes, and a Barnevelder (the brown one, back right). Still in the naming process on some of these girls. :) You can also kind of see "Marzipan" hiding in the trees (back left), she's a lightXdark Brahma cross.

    And because I'm also a sucker for ornamental birds...
    "Puck" - a gold-laced Sebright bantam. These are tiny, males are 26 oz at maturity.

    One of 2 gold-laced Polish that I recently acquired...they are SO goofy!

    They are super cute little ones, and I love the eggs. Now all of a sudden I feel like having a chocolate bunny. :aww:
