Spotted Chickens , More Eggs, & A Plan

 Spotted chickens seem meant for me don't you think ? After all I have spotted sheep, spotted ducks, and a blog called Spot on Cedar Pond ! These are my new chickens, Paint Silkies. They are immature half-grown chicks,  and I am pretty excited about them.
My hens are finally laying more eggs . Next month I can begin to expect lambs , order my new chicks, and begin thinking about..... well, check out some of my goals for my poultry here* and tell me what you think !

Big smile from me - I enjoyed reading about your passion for the chickens and ducks.
Spotted chickens are therefore quite appropriate to join the rest of your spotted group.

Spotted chickens seem a perfect fit for you, Kathy. It sounds like you have your work cut out for you with the plans you've made. :)

I think you hit the jackpot with the spotted chickens. (Golly, they are so cute) Perfect for the spotted crew. You just amaze me Kathy at all you accomplish. I am amazed you ever have time to sit for a cuppa tea...

wow, where have I been? I didn't realize you had so many chicks, doves, geese etc. in addition to all your other spotted critters! I can't imagine shoveling all that stuff but I bet it does wonders for the gardens. I like your list...best wishes.
