State Fair

So we decided not to take Sugar to the state fair this year because we just didn't think she would like be stuck in a cage for so long. But we wished we would have. About the time the fair started she went broody, so she just sits in her coop all day long, and when we went to the fair, there was not one other silkie. We were so sad, that and the deep fried twinkie was the only reason I even went. Oh well, maybe next year.

Our friend from Clinton that we met at the Davis County Fair did have several birds at the fair and he won first place, so it was cool that someone we know won, even if it wasn't us.

Chunky's gone :(


So we lost one of our little chicks Monday. Chunky, our white one died. We came home from work on Monday and she was sick, and we just couldn't get her better. Casan definitely tried her hardest to nurse and love that little chick back to health, but she couldn't make it. Thanks to everyone who helped us out while we were trying. Kristie came over and brought us some supplies, and Uncle Jerry gave us good advice from Kansas. Thanks.
