The New Chicken Chronicles

BIG NEWS!!!!

Those guinea eggs are now guinea keets! Here are some pictures. Dad standing close by and ever protective Mom.

I have been outside (MAN is it humid) putting up metal posts and stringing the black netting on the posts to give them a safe place. I am afraid the emus may stomp the babies if they see them running about.

They are SO CUTE!!!

You can see in the last picture one is dry and one is wet...so some are still hatching. :)

  Are these what people call guinies? lol That is what we called them in Kansas and still do. My grandma had a bunch of them. One day about 10 years ago I heard all this commotion outside.  I went out and I had about 25 of them on my roof!!  I have no idea where they came from. At first I thought geese were outside. They did not leave my roof until they felt like leaving. Really strange. lol Babies are cute. Janie

  OK, you can tell I am back reading journals now...sorry!  But what I want to say about your picture is...I only thought you had waited long enough from your last picture that you hair had grown and you had lightened it.  I would never have guessed that 10 years had passed!  Go girl!
