Hi,
I am new to the forum and I am from the south central part of Iowa. I raise Old English Bantam Turkens, Lemon Blues, and Fawns. I also have Sultans.

Welcome brighty! I hope you aren't in the storm path tonight, looks ugly down there!

Gregg, you may want to see if you can get some pens at Avoca?
Kari; only silly answers!

No it's in Fredericksburg. An hour away from me. I may go, though tomorrow I am picking up our babies so not sure I should try to get anymore anytime soon. Hehehe.

Hope everyone got through the evening safely. Was nasty up here late afternoon, black clouds rolled in like pulling a blanket over your head. We got heavy rain and wind but no tornado. A few spotted in surrounding counties. Very sudden and fast storms with great strength. Had basement all prepared in case. Got so dark the chickens roosted at 4:30 in the afternoon!
Had to get the neighbor lady away from her lawnmower, she had no clue there were any warnings out!
Can't get in the garden now, still too muddy!
