Nope not in Madison, i live in Clarke . Cochin, banty, silkie, frizzels, and I have a large variety of mutts !! What do you have for chickens and have you heard or been to the Exotic Animal Sale ?

Hey, how you Ioweigians doing?? Any other sales or swaps around other than Burlington? I am 50 miles south of Des Moines.
