My wife and I went to Tractor Supply and saw their chicks and couldn't resist bring home a dozen Silver Laced Wyandottes. I really enjoy raising them up to laying age. I'm trying to find some Magpie ducks at some of the local stores. I guess if I can't find them I'll order them from a hatchery. I'm looking for some geese or even gooslings. I think theirs nothing prettier than a flock of chickens grazing through a lush, green pasture. I need to get some guineas so that my guinea/beagle will realize his true identity. Well that's another story. Monday, March 7, 2011

ReplyDeleteYou will love the Wyandottes... they make beautiful hens and wonderful layers.
Yes John, the magpie is an original welsh breed and I think one of the most beautiful breeds.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I just want a simple blog about the way my family lives here in central WV.
Paula, I too love the baby chicks, Easter time is tough on me because I want to buy every chick or duck I see.
Oh, they are so adorable. Chicks are so cute.
