[CANADIANGAMES]

HEY THERE BUCK FROM ONTARIO,

BEEN ON HERE A FEW TIMES FOR 'TIPS AND TRICKS' TO RAISE BETTER FOWL, I RAISE ASILS, BOSTON ROUNDHEADS, AND A COUPLE OTHER CROSSES, LOOKING TO FIND FOLKS WITH SOME GOOD HEALTHY HENS, TO INCREASE FLOCK SIZE, I HAVE A GAME HEN (THE REST DIDN'T MAKE THE WINTER), SO I HAVE (3) STAGS THAT NEED HENS (4-5 EACH) ,

SO IF YOUR NEAR THE BORDER OF CANADA OR ALREADY RAISE FOWL ON THIS SIDE OF THE FENCE, LET ME KNOW WHATS AVAILABLE!!

I CAUGHT YOUR "INCUBATOR FEVER" LAST YEAR , HATCHED, SILKIES FOR BROOD HENS, ASILS, BLACK GAME HENS, BRHXRIR (NEAT COLORING BY THE WAY, MY BRH ROOSTER GOT MY OLD RIR HEN BEFORE SHE PASTED AWAY, AND I WAS ABLE TO HATCH THE SINGLE EGG, SHE WILL BE CROSSED BACK TO BRH ROOSTER, I ALSO HAVE THIS UNIDENTIFIED GAME HEN , THAT SOMEONE I HOPE CAN HELP DETERMINE HER BREED, SHES FROM THE STATES AND WAS CALLED A (HEMSLEY LINE GAME HEN?)

Unfortunately I replied to the BYC instead of directly to you. Being a newbiein this forum. Anyway, I am here in Highway 48, am a tenant with chickens. I have a friend, JOHN DEMPSEY, you lives in 2411 Totem Ranch Road, North of Highway 416. He might be able to help you with hens. It's been awhile since I've been to his place. He used to have a gasoline station near his place. Good luck.
