Ok so if you read the last entry you know that I have six new chickens :D I have a pair of bantam cochins which are REALLY pretty...here they are. Kelly, these guys are named Beauty and Beast :D Love it! This is the male These pictures don't even do them justice. They look even better in real life. This guys is SO nice and just a sweet heart. He was getting a little ruffed up by the female so I put them in seperate cages for now. We had to travel over an hour each way to get them and he sat on my lap all the way home...his butt was in a plasitc bag tho ;) Boy did I get some funny looks. Then I lost my phone in the parking lot there and we had to go all the way back to pick it up! UGH!
Here is Beauty...she is just beautiful! And I think she will get better...she is 5-6 months old now and I KNOW she will be nice to her boyfriend soon :D
And here are my silkies! I finally got silkies! :D
I have a dark blue and three white/splash
And here is what the other hens think of the silkies: On the top row we have (from left to right) Olivia, Violet, Zoe, Bell and Nala and on the bottom row we have Izzy, and Lacey. If we are in the garage they will always come in there and spend time with us.
And here is what we seeing in our garage a few days ago! I forgot to post these. This bigger snake was carring a small snake. UGH They left VERY fast out of my garage. They only eat grass...so no worry for the chickens at least.

The baby silkies are soooo cute!!! I can see why you love them so much :) The snakes....OMG, I would have been running and screaming, NOT snapping pictures!!! LOL!
Love & Pooh Hugs,

WOW I HAVE missed a lot over the weekend! I miss Beast so much. I love Buck Buck, but Beast was my first. I am so happy you named them this. They are just so pretty! She is probably just putting him in his place early before he gets overzealous..lol. YOU HAVE SILKIES! YAY! They are just adorable! Look at those babies! Congratulations...you crazy chicken lady! LOL. Ohhhh what are those? Garter snakes? Weird to see those two together like that, maybe they were mating? Garter snakes are cool, they arent aggressive like that Black Racer baby I found. Okay, I am going on down below to see what else you have been up to! :) Love ya bunches! Kelly
They are so shiny & pretty! I had to laugh at the plastic bag on his butt. The babies are so cute, I can see how they steal your heart and I like the other girls looking down at them. I am not fond of snakes...nope! I won't kill them but I don't like them.

I hate snakes... grass eaters or whatever. YUCK. Now your babies are cuties.
Take care and Hugs, Chrissie
