I just love these birds! I took some pictures a while ago, & thought I'd share them. I got some eggs from Cloverleaf Farm & they hatched the first of March. They are almost 7 months old & are some kind of "eye candy". Thanks again, Clover!
OOPS, Wrong end!
I have a flock of 15 Red Shouldered Yokohamas up for sale. I have been raising these birds for 5 years, culling for the best colors. There are new breeds that I want to raise, so these are up for sale. These are non-flighty, calm birds that make the BEST yard-art! The father of my roos had a 4'...
Thursday, I was pondering on the idea of having pure white Homing Pigeons. Friday, I looked on the internet & just about everyone was sold out. Today, I saw on Craigslist, some for sale in northern Arkansas. I am now the proud owner of 11 pair of white breeders. They are gorgeous. DW went to a...
We had to put our old man Boston Terrier down this week. He had a great 14 years with us! He went EVERYWHERE with me & hung out the window of the truck to threaten every vehicle that we passed. He would chase the 4 wheelers out of his territory. He was KING over all of the other dogs, no matter...
Just heard on the news that they are prossessinging them to be freed as of right now. I thought they were scapegoats from the beginning! It's so sad such young boys had they're freedom taken from them, & now they have to face a new world as grown men.
....... or anybody that knows anything...... about Peafowl genetics. I have a 4y.o.Purple Blackshoulder male & 3 1y.o. Purple females. I'm pretty sure I'll get all Purple chicks, but will they be Purples, Purple Blackshoulder, or both? All's I know about Peafowl, is....... they're pretty!

DW finally put me some pictures of her artwork on here, cause I'm too "puter illiterate". Let's see some more of y'alls artwork!
This is a consigned series that she painted in Tucson about 25 years ago.
Some pencil, & wax pencil drawings
And some paintings
Let's see some of yours!
I raised 1 boy & 3 girl Purples from eggs to 1 1/2 years old. I went out to feed this morning & my male was dead under the roost, like he had a heart attack or something. DW & I were really bummed out! Then...... my cousin called me trying to buy a rare gun of mine. He just happened to...
We have survived the tornadoes, but I'm not sure if the rain will take our sanity, or what's left of it, away! In the last week we've had about 14". The barn flooded & I lost 5 chicks I hatched from Cloverleaf Farms. Luckily I still have 31 of the beauties left. I dug a...
Some unforseen circumstances have arose, & I must be leaving BYC for a while. I have met some very special people on here.I will miss you dearly, especially farmboy, sourland, & Em. Thank you for putting up with my schenanigans. Maybe someday, The Knight will return. Thank you all!
If you were stranded on a desert island & had 1 person stranded with you, who would it be? After serious thought, believe it or not, it wouldn't be the opposite sex. It would be The Professor from Gilligans Island. He can invent anything we'd need. Maybe I could trade him in later?
I opened my loft for the first time yesterday to let my 5 that were born here fly. One never left, one came back in about an hour, one in about 5 hours, one today, 24 hours later, & one never showed back up yet. It was like watching the dog on the movie "Funny Farm", once in a while, we'd see...
There are some things in this world that I think need changed. For example,
#1 I think Policemen that are hired & paid by OUR tax dollars should be required to be fit enough to chase criminals. Some of the boys on the force here can barely hold their weight up, let alone, run!
#2 I think...
My wife is in LOVE with Blue Cochins. I am looking for about 1/2 dozen good quality eggs from Splash & Black, or Blue. Anybody have some spares? These will be her FIRST very own personal birds to spoil, so I'm looking for the BEST for her! She deserves it! If you have any, please PM me on the...
My wife LOVES the Blue Cochins, but I know nothing about them. Are they a Self Blue? I mean, will all chicks born be blue? If so, who has some SHOW QUALITY eggs for sale? I would like to surprise wife with about a dozen eggs.
What's your favorite made-up, or real word, & what does it mean. If possible, use it in a sentence.
Mine.... Discombobulated, - confused.
Trying to figure out chicken math keeps me discombobulated.
What is your favorite saying?
Mine is....... Tighter than a bulls (butt) during fly...
