We kind of ended up being called Shark Snipers :)    But we all have some breed of very beautiful great lines birds out of all the competition.  droolin.gif

 

We try to get together once a year and swap eggs, chickens, stories, supplies, food and what ever else comes up through out the year. 

 

All are welcome as we are very friendly people and enjoy spending time with like minded folks! wee.gif


Dreaming already here......smile.png

 

Also wondering, why is it a "Sharkie" chickenstock?

Oh!  Just noticed the update on the first page.  Excited to see someone is selling Wheaton/blue Wheaton Ameraucana eggs.  This place could be dangerous! tongue.png
