I’m sure that many of you have heard the various things children want for Christmas. But, have you ever heard a child tell Santa, “I want a chicken for Christmas?” Usually, it’s the latest hand-held game, doll, puppy or kitten, but not a chicken.
I’m so happy that I’m a crazy chicken lady who just decided to hatch some chicks after the main hatching season was over. I had lost most of my Polish hens to either a fox or creatures that fly, so I wanted to hatch some. I also wanted a few more white Silkies, so I incubated a few of them. There were some bluish and smaller eggs, and I was curious to see who was laying those. So, I also incubated them. I had beautiful white Silkies, Self blue d’uccles mixed with cochin, hatch in October. I also incubated Polish and a few miscellaneous eggs that I knew would be banty, but I wasn’t sure what kind. This batch hatched right before Thanksgiving.

Born October 27th, 2011 |
Yesterday when I got home from work, I found a message on my phone left by someone who had obtained a few chicks from me earlier in the year. When I returned the call, I started to tell the woman about the variety of chicks I had. She was pleasantly surprised that I had any … and was especially delighted when I said I had white Silkies.
“Oh, white Silkies!” she said. “That’s just what my son wants. He even brought out a book and showed us a picture of one.”

About 1 month old |
I told her they were about 2-months-old and nicely fluffing out. The white Silkie hen was also sitting on a few eggs at this point, which I expected to hatch around Christmas. So I told her I would be fine with parting with a couple of the older ones.
I also added that I had some red ribbon, which I could make into a big bow for the chick or chicks. She asked how late she could pick it up, and I told her she could come on Christmas Eve if she wanted, so it would be a lovely surprise for her son.
Now, I think I’m as excited as the parents about giving the little boy this special gift. I have been very pleased with how lovely the Silkies look.

Currently, they are with the Polish and the mix. |
I would love to see the look on the little boy’s face when he receives this chick or chicks. The parents haven’t decided if they want to get one or two. What a delightful and special gift. I’m so happy I was crazy enough to hatch out a few chicks for myself … or I wouldn’t have this opportunity.
Happy Hatching and Happy Holidays. Chickens are a joy year round.

Hello i am Mark Rebecca am from United Kingdom I am so happy to let the whole word know how this powerful spell caster saved my marriage. Everything was going down the drain as my husband can not stop cheating on me with other women. It became used to always heating on me. I tried to make him stop, but I couldn’t help the situation, the more I tried, the harder it becomes. At times we will fight and go apart for some months and we will come back again just because of our kids. One day a friend told me about this spell caster who helped her too, his name is Dr. ONIHA, she said he uses white magic spells to solve spiritual problems. I decided to give it a try, I contacted him and he told me it will take just 2 to 3 days and I will see great changes in my husband. He actually cast a spell, believe me after 2 to 3 days of the spell, my husband was confessing different names of woman he has slept with. He begged for forgiveness and never to try it again. From that day till now, my mind is at rest. My husband dislike every other women on earth except me. And am so happy to have him for myself alone. The spell caster’s contact is: onihaspiritualtemple@yahoo.com
Hi My name is “BEKAR JOE” just want to share my experience with the world on how i got my love back and saved my marriage.because i really love SONNIA so much that i can not even do without. I was married for 15years with lilian and 2kids and we lived happily until things started getting ugly and we had fights and arguments almost every time… it got worse at a point that she filed for divorce… I tried my best to make her change her mind & stay with me cause i loved her with all my heart and didn’t want to loose her but everything just didn’t work out… she moved out of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce… I pleaded and tried everything but still nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster who eventually helped me out… I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice… He did special prayers and used roots and herbs… Within 7 days she called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma she had cost me, moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy with us. I have introduced him to a lot of couples with problems across the world and they have had good news… Just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there need’s it… You can email him via (Ultimatespellcast@yahoo.com or ultimatespellcast@gmail.com) Don’t give up just yet, the different between “Ordinary” & “Extra-Ordinary” is the “Extra” so make extra effort to save your marriage/relationship if it’s truly worth it.call him +2348156885231
Am really pleased with Dr. EKPEN TEMPLE on ekpentemple@gmail.com services. I am one of those people that forbid
magicians to help me with my problem, but I reached the point where I knew that I needed some spiritual help about
my relationship and I’m so glad I found so many blogs and websites talking about Dr. EKPEN TEMPLE powerful love
spell. I never in a million years thought I would be writing a testimony like this, but when I nearly lost the love
of my life in one of our stupid petty fights. I thought I had lost everything until Dr. EKPEN TEMPLE showed up. He
performed a very good love spell for me. I don’t know how he did it, but all I know is that the love spell worked
and we are happily back together without any after effect.
I will always be grateful for Dr. EKPEN TEMPLE kindness, sympathy, and extension of services to me and to others in
a real time of need. Thank you Dr. EKPEN TEMPLE. contact him on ekpentemple@gmail.com or call +2348187789495

My name is Jessica Ruiz from Florida I have to give this miraculous testimony, which is so unbelievable until now. I had a problem with my Ex husband 2years ago, which lead to our break up. when he broke up with me, I was not my self again, i felt so empty inside me, my love and financial situation became worst, until a close friend of mine Lucy told me about a spell caster who helped her in the same problem too his name is Dr Shiva at hinduspelltemple@yahoo .com . I email Dr Shiva the spell caster and i told him my problem and i did what he asked of me, to cut the long story short. Before i knew what was happening my husband gave me a call and told me that he was coming back to me in just 2days and was so happy to have him back to me. We have two kids together and we are happy with ourselves. Thanks to Dr Shiva hinduspelltemple@yahoo .com for saving my relationship and for also saving others own too. continue your good work, If you are interested to contact him and testify this blessings like me, the great spell caster email address is hinduspelltemple@yahoo .com you are the best among all the spell caster online I hope you see my testimonies and also pray for my family too.

Need a spell caster?then think of oral he is real reliable and he does what he promise you.I know all this because he helped with my marriage problem.For security reason i will not live my name here but i can tell you all he did to help me.Me and my family live in the US military base here in America,my wife is a solider and i love it that she is and i support.But being a solider means she is half my wife and fully the U.S army.before her three tour we were so in love and we had a kid son who we both love him.It all changed after her two tour in Iraq and Afghanistan,i noticed the distance her second tour she stopped call at first i thought maybe she was part of an accident but i found out that she was OK in Afghanistan.She explained that she always on patrol.It got ugly on the third. I guess in the last two tours she found herself a new lover and then totally forgetting me and our boy.I can not say i did not notice because she always has to be some where instead of with me,coming up with some silly excuse not to be with me that is ( have sex ) and her entire behavior told me all i needed to know. i did my research and i had a hint that it was her squad lieutenant.I had know evidence so a could not take the matter to any body.It killed me to seeing this happen i was going suicidal.What hurt me the most was she going home knowing that i suspect she infidelity,she kept lying to me over and over again.The power of positive thinking helped me a lot.I thought that maybe i can find in the help on the internet with the people who had being in the same problem with him.I found a lot of ways but nor worked except oral spell.At that time five month ago i was so confused that i could do anything to get my wife back so i contacted oral with his email address i saw in some comment on the internet at (oralshrine@gmail.com).I laid down my problem to him and told him the entire story and he even confirmed my hint was right, how he did i do not know but he was right because my wife told me later after the spell was made effective.oralshrine cast a spell on them both do not know what he did but it seem he made them both forget they ever crossed path romantically speaking like they never know each other expect there official relationship that is squad leader and solider.I owe my life to oral what he did saved my marriage.I can tell you this because i have tried and it worked for me.Your case also have a solution with oral contact him with his email( oralshrine@gmail.com) if you are out there passing through any of this problems listed below:
1) If you want your ex gay.
(2) if you always have bad dreams.
(3) You want to be promoted in your office.

My name is Rose Smith from united states of america. I never believed in love spells or magic until i met this spell caster once when i went to Africa in February this year on a business summit. I meant a man who’s name is DR.MADURAI he is really powerful and could help cast spells to bring back one’s gone, lost, misbehaving lover and magic money spell or spell for a good job or luck spell .I’m now happy & a living testimony cos the man i had wanted to marry left me 3 weeks before our wedding and my life was upside down cos our relationship has been on for 3years. I really loved him, but his mother was against us and he had no good paying job. So when i met this spell caster, i told him what happened and explained the situation of things to him. At first i was undecided, skeptical and doubtful, but i just gave it a try. And in 7 days when i returned to Canada, my boyfriend (now husband) called me by himself and came to me apologizing that everything had been settled with his mom and family and he got a new job interview so we should get married. I didn’t believe it cos the spell caster only asked for my name and my boyfriends name and all i wanted him to do. Well we are happily married now and we are expecting our little kid, and my husband also got the new job and our lives became much better. His email is maduraitemple@yahoo.com
