the babies!

here’s a pic of the babies i took a few days ago.. they are growing so fast!  Mr Nibbles loves to cuddle with them, and they are finally used to him and they hop all over him all day long, picking bugs off his fur and snuggling with him at nite. 

Babies-small

have more eggs in the incubator, candled em yesterday and most of them seem to be fertile and making babies.. have 14 aracauna eggs i ordered from ebay in there this time.. i love aracauna chickens.. they are just the sweetest birds! and of course, they lay beautiful pastel colored eggs *smile*.  I love Delaware chickens also, had a few in texas and one especially was such a pet! she’d sit on my lap every morning and eat her ‘snacks’ from me then she’d come in the house and eat cockroaches.. lol.  and she was housebroke, never pooped on the floor! i want some more of the delaware breed, they lay awesome huge brown eggs.  hopefully, i’ll get a rooster from the delawares or the aracuanas and can replace Freckles.  He’s gotten sooooo mean, even tho i clipped his spurs.. he still attacks kids and people constantly and it’s very annoying.

On a personal note, thank you daughter for the Mother’s Day phone calls! I love you!! I was zonked out asleep when u called, which is why i didn’t answer the phone, but i sure appreciate ur calling sweetie!!!!  I was in shock all week and I was so proud of you! Love you always, “Mom”.

Have a great week!
