    Has or have any of you heard of "Acres" magazine? Wondering if this would be a good place for an article on Iowa Blues?

    I can certainly help you out with freezer storage space Kari. I could rent it out to you or maybe work out a trade arrangement. I have lots of zucchini (summer squash) that need a good home! :)

    Glad you are enjoying the birds, they seem very happy! I just set a couple more Buff eggs for the folks I emailed you about. I also set 2 duck eggs. It will be fun having baby ducks.

    Received my premium check today from the State Fair and to my surprise, I did have the Champion and Reserve in the light duck category! It just is not a class they give an award for or someone made a mistake? Happy anyway! So Kari, you and I should hold our heads high this year! Woo Hoo!!!!

    Very happy to have found them such a good home. I know you will fall in love with those Buff Brahma pullets. They are little sweethearts even though a bit tough to rodeo in a long pen! And if you ever want to have some of your own chicks, I can rent you a roo for a weekend!

    If you are able to attend the Iowa City show, if your Silver pullet stays small. I would love to have her, or trade her. I am looking for a Silver runt for demos, and one that will fit in with my bantam single girls club!
