    I'm looking forward to the one in NYS. Can't wait. One is all I can handle. Plus I'm afraid of Sharks and Snipers.

    2014 New York Chickenstock

    Moved the eggs from the one hen who hatched the five to another hen and she hatched another one. Black. Moved it to the first hen and hope all goes well even though it's two day behind. She seems to have taken it. Found a broken egg under the second hen. Washed the remaining eggs but tossed...

    Baby chicks can get through too. I wish I could afford to cover the lower section of my runs with hardware cloth. Five EE's hatched out yesterday. Two lav and three black.

    It's nice to walk the grounds after eating at Pumpkin Hill. I love the duck pond and garden. NY needs more gardens.

    Lavender Festival coming up in July. Oh and if you've not been, there is a good place to eat, called "Pumpkin Hill" in Aurora. We then like to walk through McKenzie Childs and wish we had money to afford it. They have a beautiful gate I'd like but at $1,000 it's out of my range by about...

    Well I candled and pulled a lot of eggs out of the side coop. They were no good. Don't know why and I suspect there are a few more. I may just pull them all and say to heck with it. These stupid hens. I have no idea why there not doing good. They are fertile. At least some of them have to be...

    How are those other two chickens doing? Everyone else- I put water in the hoop cool and closed it up with the sitting hens. Another egg broke and stank and the hen got up leaving a Marans egg that I tossed as it felt bad. While I put another nest bucket in and there was a hen in it...

    It's not that they're particularly bad, but they're too far from the standard. Too they don't lay very long. My hens are nearing 4 or 5 and still laying. They are a prolific in the short term but are good over the long haul. I find that if you're intend to get attached to your birds you...

    Never mind. I don't care for hatchery birds. Plus they get their chicks from Mt. Healthy, who just got written up for salmonella. Sorry.

    No but if you have a decent rooster I'll give you one in exchange for their eggs. Got a pic of your boy.

    241.97 miles/ 5 hours. Might be a bit too far. Lately we make our decisions on whether we can fly south to see the grandkids for the same amount of money spent. If I can fly to Houston for about the same money, I choose Houston. Last trip was $303 round trip. I'm sure you understand.

    How far are you from me. I have plenty and need to make room for the new stuff.

    2014 New York Chickenstock

    Well you will need to give us basic address to measure how far. Also might be nice to give some sights to see or places to visit. If we come I'd like to make it a two or three day affair.

    Glass, dropped them off to me and I can not say how grateful I am to both of you. I missed everyone but was there in spirit. I have no doubt Tab and Travis were great hosts. all around.

    I still have that rooster. Mr. Mean Gene. I am sorry he's not going. He is a nice big guy. It's a shame he's mean. I traded away a bunch of young ones for hay. Kept a B. Maran roo, a Del roo and a B. Maran pullet. She's not coming to the picnic she's picking up a milk goat in Skaneateles...
