If that bird is only 2 weeks old, i would hate to see it when it is fully grown

, are you sure it is not an ostrich. What do you feed it on as it is bigger than our 2 week old goslings :shock: - let me guess not a small scoop full, but a bucket full of crumbs

Hubby was thinking of a couple of Brahma's from early on, to raise and 'enjoy'.. not like him to actually WANT an animal!

You're not supposed to say Awwwww, Aggy, WE ARE!!!!!!

Awwwwwwwwww, aren't they gorgeous? more little babies to sit on your head and shoulders!!!!!

They are sooo beautiful when they are tiny, when they are big too, but I love them best when they are small.
