I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wanted to throw in the towel on paint silkie chickens. However, I also love them sooo much. The frustration is real but I know I’ll never be able to give up on them.

I am completely obsessed with this chunky black silkie chick.
This will be my first year producing my own lone from my black pen. As I've paired my black c**k from BBT exotics over my own black hens. I'm excited for this hatch season.

Just a couple paint chicks. I’ve hatched over 30 chicks and plan to be very picky on keepers.

Yesterday was a beautiful day at 69 degrees and full sun. Today is wet and muddy at 62 degrees. This means we are in the thick of fools spring as we are soon to drop back to a high of 33.
My girls aren’t paying no mind and laying like crazy.
I need a few warm days so that I can power wash the main barn and continue with the plans for building.
What does everyone else use to clean dust from barns?

This handsome ugly c**kerel creeping into my heart like a bandit.
First ever non bearded but boy is he a cutie. Desperately needs a grooming.

I’ve been spending a lot of time lately thinking about my own personal goals with my silkies this year.
One of my biggest goals with my paint pen is to work on bigger spots.
This photo was taken today during a water check and this little herb reminds me of how far I’ve come.

What are some goals you all hope to achieve this year?
Is there anything the chicken community can help with?

Hot Topic
I just want to take a moment to say, it’s okay. It’s ok to not know it all or always get it right, it’s ok if your vision didn’t turn out right the first time or even the 100th time. It’s okay if your vision doesn’t fit everyone else’s vision or if you don’t do things the same ways others do them.

If we all spent less time feeling like we were in a race or a competition then we can learn from one another. If you aren’t learning then you aren’t growing and nobody wants to just stand still.

Take the time to think about your own goals and never forget to have fun and enjoy what you are doing. We only get one life to live. Live it your way!

The temperature is 8 degrees here and it has been snowing continuously. Nonetheless, my girls remain unaffected as they continue to produce their valuable output.
