I think Barry would sooner grow wings than hire someone^^; He likes to get things done with a minimal crew at the best of times lol. Besides, all of us here have raised chickens, and I dont mind telling someone 'I dont know' on a tough question :P
The Iowa Blues came in on Friday the 13th, were hatched on wednesday the 11th. This is true with all of our friday arrivals, as far as I know. We got those from Privett hatchery, I believe.
Actually, there was a mix up on the Iowa Blues... was yours a light yellow or a dark blue? We had it mixed up with the blue sumatras originally.... I still have like 3 or 4 of the actual Iowa's left. Hopefully it'll get worked out!
Regarding Rory, he moved to the Sacramento area.
Kmoran, 25 hens...
Hey, things are great, moving about 700 birds a week and having none of the health or overcrowding problems from last year~ Rory left for california in september, so no more resident chicken expert, unfortunately.
