    ***OKIES in the BYC III ***

    Quote: A Hearty second to Sooner's comment. I couldn't make the event due to prior commitments but I was there in spirit for what that is worth. I know Coral did all she could do and from what I have read, aside from a few glitches, the event went well. I have helped organize five POOPS...

    NE Oklahoma Chicken Stock - Let's Plan!

    I won't be able to stay long at NEOCS, but I am certainly looking forward to it! Thank you Poco Pollo and everyone else who has worked so hard to make this the success I'm sure it will be. I look forward to seeing old friends and making new friends tomorrow at N.E.O.C.S. in Muskogee!

    Hi all. I have been helping one of Jack's sisters (her name was Laura) since May 13 - first in the hospital and then with her at her home under hospice care. She died peacefully at home Tuesday night. Lynn, three of the eggs I got from you hatched. I got one Ameraucana, one Brown Leghorn...

    I would like some more too, Bill - I have had a couple from the suckers that finally sprouted from the cane, but maybe the root sections will take better - that variegated cane is so pretty - would be a good green wall where I am planting it!

    Am posting so I can find my place the next time I get on - and a note to myself to start catching up on p.3092. I have spent the past couple of weeks with a friend who has cancer - she was in the hospital for many days and just went home to be on hospice care last weekend. My thoughts and...

    Ha - I don't know Bill, from some of the stories I've heard about you - you've been gnashed!

    I hope he makes it too - I'm glad you got him off the fence - you did good!

    It was great to see you and your family too, Greybear/Lynn! Now after wishing these broody hens would just "get over it" I'm praying they stick with it since they'll have fertilized eggs to sit on. Thanks so much for showing me all your chickens - you have a great setup and some beautiful...

    Greybear - I just read your post about overdoing it a bit yesterday - take care of yourself, Friend. I'll see you in a bit. (I'm going to pick up eggs for the broody at Greybear's!)

    NanaKat - since you are working so hard and being so productive (wow!), I think I need to slack off a little bit more to keep the universe balanced...

    I need to go back and edit my post to confess to the "internet guinea photo" I submitted - it is something called a "helmeted Guinea fowl" Here is info on the photo and I will also edit my original post: Caption: Helmeted Guineafowl (Numida meleagris) close-up showing its brightly-colored...

    I agree about the broodiness of this breed. They are beautiful, docile, consistent layers...except when they're broody.

    Someone with first-hand experience will know better, but my folks always stole the keets from any "open range" hatches as they appeared and put them in a brooder of some sort. I just changed the bedding in the keet hutch I'm keeping the 16 week-old guinea keets in (thanks jcatblum/Christina &...

    I put the cane I got from Elwood in the ground a week ago Sunday and I haven't checked to see if there is new growth on it yet... How did you plant yours, Kass? I cut mine into 8-12 inch pieces, dug a 3" trench and planted it with the stem laying horizontally on the bottom of the trench. I've...

    I have already set a screen window over the top of the hutch just for this purpose - thanks for the reminder!

    RetiredArmyWife - I'm glad I'm not the only one! I won't be able to keep the chicks from my planned broody experiment since there are rules about how many chickens we're allowed in the city limits and I am already more than full up on clucks. I am really just tired of trying to break broody...
