    Thank you for the pointers and I'll probably take you up on that Bo. I'm a newbie at this and would love to learn more. Right now they are only a couple weeks old so I'll give them a little more time and get some good pictures of them. Thank you! Carol Ann

    All of these problems that Dutchbunny is having is making me a little scared to even go to Carolina ChickenStock this weekend. What do y'all suggest about looking for birds to add to a flock at an event like this? Would you suggest not buying anything at all? What precautions should I take...
