Welcome to the world, baby dinosaur!

Yesterday, my hatch-a-thon began. Yay! It's been a while since I've had some lil' babies. I want to say I was especially excited for this hatch because it's been so long-- but I'm ALWAYS SUPER EXCITED to hatch baby chicks. It's also messy, stressful & at times a bit terrifying. Behold-- the miracle of life! 

Today & tomorrow will be an exciting day for us here at KMC. I've got my Catdance Silkies & Shaynas Silkies pipping & zipping. I am thrilled that 2013 is going to be full of fun & fluffy chicks. Lot's of hard work, but totally worth it.  Carla B. and Elena have a full clutch in the broody box, so I predict they will have some peeps under them this morning. 

Last night my first 2 chicks hatched. Both Paints. Love those polka dots! But I got a surprise on the second one.....

. . . . Everyone please rise & give a big welcoming round of applause. . . . . . . .


It's a SHOWGIRL!! Thats right, a bare necked American Paint Silkie. She will have a puffy crest & body, but a bare neck with a little "bow tie" of feathers in front. 
    I've hatched one showgirl before, a while ago, but this little chick looks like a baby dinosaur. Kinda super cute.
