Hi All!!
Just got back from Ohio Nationals. My red boy won 1st and best variety.
We also had the local Fox 6 news here to film our coop for a story on backyard hens in Milwaukee. Should be on the news in the next week or so.
Dr. H-- beautiful birds!~

Welcome Raiquee, you are pretty close to my area. Like you, I was very sick with my pregnancies... with Hyperemesis gravidarum. Spent almost 3 months in the hospital with a PICC line during my 2nd pregnancy. I was also on ondansetron for nausea (and also compazine, reglan & a few...
Hi All! I was at the Beaver Dam Show this weekend, 7 first places and a few Best of Variety & Reserve of Variety wins. Lots of very nice people there and intriguing pigeons especially. My friend and I also found several great Runners for sale- usually we see many drakes but there were quite a...
Lots of eggs this morning- my silkies are laying like crazy. Thank g-d as my QGF decided to have an epileptic fit and jump to 106 degrees, killing my eggs in the 'bator. grrrrrrrrrr.
Hi Gothchick- it's always exciting getting birds in the mail... though my PO isn't always as excited as I am...
Sorry I have been AWOL, it's been a-crazy here.

I THOUGHT I saw you there! I should have said hi but I felt like a dork if it wasn't you. I was in the waterfall building a lot because my friend had a bazillion geese and ducks entered. I love your runner ducks- they are beautiful...
I'm so sorry I missed the get-together. We got as far as Madison and after my husband went in to see his patient, he came out white as a sheet, sweaty and running a fever. So I made him drive back to Milwaukee. I am now sick as heck too.
Had BigBadCryBaby over a couple days ago for coffee and to view the chicken houses & runs. It was really nice to see you BBCB!
Looks like I will make it to the meet this weekend, not sure if I'll be there right at noon since it's a 3 hour drive, but I'll do my very best!
BBCB- Glad to see you back- we missed you guys at the party this weekend but we had a great turnout- Brianna even came with her whole family. Jerry Lee is adorable- that is a fantastic pic!
Congrats on the new chicks Buck Creek!
Building another run on the coop and it's almost finished. I...
Annaire- Those are gorgeous birds and great pics of them!
Fordmommy- Glad the party went well! Whooot!
SuzyQ- A southern WI meetup would be bananas- I would def. go!
We have a big memorial day bash tommorow and my MIL is coming in on her broomstick...er... on a plane this afternoon. Should be...
BuckCreek- Those pics are majestic looking. Gorgeous birds!
Terri- I love the goats. I've been wanting to get a pair so I have been avidly reading and learning about them.
Dr. Ha- Yum on the black raspberries. Those are my favorites and unfortunately with all the clay in our soil, they don't...
Hi all!
Lots of silkie chicks hatching here- getting a new incubator really helped! Decided to add on yet ANOTHER run area to my existing runs. Wish me luck in the hot weather.
Great pics of the coop and buckeyes!
So babylady4 is slapping rumps and Terri O is showering with her client.
Fordmommy- congrats on finishing painting--- it's a chore-- and the new truck. We buy used too.
Bigzio- What did you plant in your garden? And I'll take some of that bass too! Can't wait to see your pics of the coop...
Dr. Haha- Glad to hear that dad's doing better! Have racoons ever got into your chickens? That is one of my fears because we do have coons in the area and they can be nasty little buggers.
Terri- I'll take some of that Rhubarb Torte too! Yum
FordMommy Glad you spent some time with a fellow...
TO-- hope your hands feel better.
Fordmommy those ducks are AWESOME!
Cedar- Happy Birthday to your twin girls!
Dr. Haha I hope your dad feels better.
Bigzio- Glad to hear the Javas are awesome.
Nice weekend- weather was great and can't complain!
