We had a tree we bought after thanksgiving, and it lasted six months after Christmas, and it probably would have kept going if the wind didn't knock it over, because, after Christmas, we kept it in the stand with water outside near the pond!

But it is fun I have 2 great rooster so any others will go to auction

Speaking of auction, I picked up a young dehydrated weal liege fighter at coal creek auction. Any idea who has those in Lewis/Thurston county?

Do they go to an auction for meat?

We have 8 roosters, plus two more possible cockerels...
And we have 4 of the 8 in bachelor pads!

25!
four gold laced wyandottes
four cuckoo Marans (one rooster)
five easter eggers
eight barred rocks
two black sex links
two Buff Orpingtons (Buffo and Buffy)

My first fifteen from a hatchery came with seven cockerels instead of the two I ordered, so I got the EEs, BRs, BOs and sexlinks to even the odds until I let some roosters go because I was really attached to them. A friend took three, we made stew out of one, someone on here took the most beautiful blue Andalusian in, my favorite OE grew up into an aggressive jerk and went to freezer camp. So now we have 24 pullets and one rooster. Seven are laying although I think an EE or two much have started. Some of the BRs are getting close. these photos are a few weeks old.
