recent events

Got done with our first full event last night!  We did okay...about as bad as we expected...Started up a blog for the business, so y'all can take a look at that... it is:  http://heidishomedecor.blogspot.com/
We were planning on moving out in August, but that is not going to happen any more...stupid being practical about money!  :(
Our last month for our chickens has been pretty poor...we had a dog or something get 2 of the year olds, and one of the other year (or something) olds died the other day.  We think she was older than the guy said she was, and she was sick, having trouble breathing and stuff for several days before...Its too bad. But I guess it happens. 
Our 16 chicks that we got back on May 13th are doing very well!  We think we only have 2 or 3 roosters out of all of them, which are pretty darn good odds!  And they are so cute!!!!  And getting sooo big!!  :)  I love them so much!  We think we have a couple of sebrights (we thought they were d'uccles before, but they're starting to look like sebrights instead).  We have one silver-laced cochin...I've decided to name her abby, she's so cute and so soft!  We think that we also have a couple of mottled cochins, but they're not quite what the pictures depict them as, so maybe not, but they are really friendly and are kinda weird, but I'm starting to really like them!  We also have a 2 dark cornish chicks...I'm torn about those, I really like their coloring, but I hate the body structure.  I still need to take some pictures of them and post them.  They're so cool!
Henny and one of the brownies decided that they're gonna set on their eggs...I keep pulling the eggs out, but they've got it in their heads that they're brooding...plus we don't have any mature roosters, so its pointless..silly girls!!
