***OKIES in the BYC III ***

[margaret8]

Hey BYC Okies!!!

After 7 long, featherless years... I'm getting back in the chicken business!!  I finally got moved back out to the country, & immediately began planning. Lol. It won't be until spring before I get my girls, but I wanted to get back on the board & get acquainted with all the newcomers! (Newcomers, as in people I have met in the past 7 years. Lol!)


Does anyone know if Cement still has an auction?

Do you want guineas?

I'm a newcomer, and I had to look up where cement was!

Ironsights, are you new to Oklahoma!? Lol jk. It is very small, my dad's family is from there. I used to attend the auction every month, it was a great turnout!

margaret8, thank you for the offer but we will pass on the guineas for now. Lol

How old are the large Cochins when they lay?

Spring hatched girls will begin laying in the fall and summer hatched will not lay until the following spring....so 7 - 10 months. Occasionally a summer hatched bird will go broody before she actually lays her first egg.

I'm late to the party but, Mustang OK here guys.

Poco Pollo, thanks for the info! I've been told that Apache has a good auction now, maybe Cement merged with it. I'm close to the Chickasha area (go Fightin' Chicks! Lol, yes that's really their mascot), so the auctions you mentioned are pretty far for me.

Been in OK since 2001 but don't get around much.

Ironsights, its really not much to see. One old street with old buildings. Although they do have a gas station, a pharmacy, a fire department, & a museum. Which is more than what Purdy has these days! Lol

There is an auction in Blanchard and an auction in Newcastle. I'm not sure when the next one is though.
