All this talk about forgetfulness reminds me that I was once told that as you age your memory is one of the first things to go and I can't remember what the other things were.
Chickenstock is finally mere hours away. I've loaded a couple of tables, two cages, two small dog carriers, waterers, a box with paper plate & napkins, and Granny's walker. After dark I'll take the two 5 week old bantam blue orpingtons and load them. In the morning I've got in put a childs...
If you've known her for 10 years you should be able to guess her size. Buy her a new pair of panties, gift wrap them and give them to her. Tell her you thought she might need a new pair since the ones she had on yesterday got wadded up so bad. It will either make her mad (no big deal) or it...
Things didn't go as planned this week so I've been outside since 6am hanging wet chickens up to dry. I've got my fingers crossed that the rain holds off.
Mcbeers, I have several pvc feeders that after much trial and error finally work great. I used 3" PVC 1- 36", 1- 8", 1- cap 1- 90 el, 1-3" inspection cap. I marked the center line of the 8" pipe and drilled 2- 1 1/2 dia holes so that the edge of holes are 1" from ends of pipe. Cut out the...
I bet you didn't think it would ever get here, yet we are now almost there. Eleven more days. I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone again, meeting all the new people, and checking out all the birds that everyone is bringing. Last year I brought birds and went home without any more...

Sorry that you won't be able to make it and don't worry about your illegal birds cuz there won't be a peep out of us. Of course we're liable to send your husband home with some.
The days are finally winding down and Chickenstock will soon be upon us. This year should be are biggest yet. Besure to check out the other threads linked to in my signature line.
Chickenstock is rapidly approaching and I think it's shaping up to be the best one ever. While it's not necessary to sign up it is helpful to have an idea of who is coming. Each year I have been amazing at the quanity and variety of food that we have. Be sure to check the pot luck thread to...
Shabbychick, welcome and I'm glad you will be joining us at Chickenstock. Where is Michigan are you located? At least hold up your hand and point with the other.
I really like the look of my vorwerks and hopefully I will be able to bring some fertile eggs and chicks to Chickenstock. Vorwerks have to be one of the more striking bantams breeds. I really enjoy watching how a chick with a dark body and gold head transitions into a bird with a gold body and...
Good to see how many folks have indicated their intent to come. Now the rest of you get your names on here. Your not being listed just might be why some others haven't signed up yet. Don't forget about the buy/sell/trade thread and the pot luck thread. Looking forward to seeing all of you at...
I have sent Silly Chicken a pm and we will soon have a link to her thread so a simple click will allow you to find out what people need and what birds you are going to find impossible to resist buying.
