They just seem like they'd be a very entertaining chicken. I kind of wish you were getting a salmon favril (sp?). They just seem like they’d be a very entertaining chicken.

Chickens! I know I want an Ameraucana or similar for the pretty eggs. I am yet undecided on others, though. I'm tempted by a Silky because they are such silly things- animated feather boas! (And we don't really need a lot of egg production.) The Welsummers look interesting, though... And thanks for this link- I'd thought I pretty much had to give up chickens for now because ain't no way I need 25! but if they can ship 3... hmm. As far as sending the chick one wants packed with random male chicks... I'm both amused and a bit appalled, although I guess it makes total sense in a practical sense. And if one had the room one could maybe raise them for meat... Ooo! Chickens!

I was guessing that chickens were in the offing when I saw your links list post. Keen!
