We were going to drive to a breeder's place south of RapidCity to possibly pick up a nice trio, but don't know what is going on now that hubby's company has mostly pulled out of the area and he's been laid off. Hubby is saying that we may need to wait until next year, but if we cannot make the drive, we may be able to arrange a relative to pick up, if they decide to drive. The delay would mostly be due to lack of time...we have an 8x10 shed that we can use for housing, but the floor needs repair or replacing...not just flooring, but the frame for the floor, so will probably need an extra guy or two to help the tractor guy. I have no problem with hatcheries, but am hoping to have a knowledgeable breeder to pick my trio, in hopes of having a better chance to produce good 4-H (etc) show prospects. Also wanted a broody line.
With as cold and windy as this area is, I starting looking at Orloffs, too.
