    What I really like is how soft they are! For like a week afterwards, I am always hugging them. People - please find me at the show! I will be wearing my navy blue collared Sussex County Poultry Fanciers shirt, jeans, and my black cowboy boots. I also have a rainbow rooster pin. (My...

    Well, guess what?! I won't be showing ANY birds, because my vet told me that the cause of this diarrhea that the girls have been suffering is from up to four parasites, and he's not sure of the treatment for so many at once. So, since I don't want to possibly infect anyone else's birds, mine...

    Items for the ticket auction can be dropped off Friday night during coop-in, or Saturday morning, the earlier the better. You could be as late as 11am, although that doesn't leave the ladies much time to set up. I got my little box of goodies all ready! I also have some stuff coming for the...

    NJ - Sussex County Poultry Fanciers Annual Spring Show

    I won't have a good idea of the number of entries until the end of next week. They'll have to know then, since they need to set up the cages. When the judging occurs depends on the number of entries, and to a degree, the quality of the winners of the classes and on Champion Row. I've seen...

    Quote: Loki, it is usually best to get there by 10am. Judging starts at 9am, but the exhibitors are still running around settling stuff after the rush of the morning. from 10-2, it's usually pretty relaxing, with lots of people you can talk to. Just make sure to stay out of the aisle the...

    Thank you, my lady, for taking care of this gentleman!! Yes, pullorum testing is required for all shows in NJ, and pretty much every other state I've been to. Unfortunately, I can never find the right number, but you can call the USDA's veterinary Services @ 609-259-5260. They can give you...

    Yes, well, remember I am weak and insane. The desperate need for some LF favs overtook my common sense. I was counting on a 50% hatch rate, which would leave me eight, and half of those being boys, which would leave me four girls, which is what I want.

    Woman, you may be going home with a couple - I checked my eggs tonight (two separate batches of eight) for days ten and twelve, and all sixteen are fertile! I was not planning on this. What happened to the 50% hatch rate from mailed eggs? You're gonna NEED some LF favs.

    Everyone - exhibiting or not - please try to remember our ticket auction as you do your spring cleaning or as you're out shopping over the next few weeks. New or barely used items are always appreciated. They do not have to be chicken-related (even though those are my favorite.) Marshall's...

    We love the Delmarva Show! What a great hall with the bright lights and the wide aisles. I picked up a very nice JG pullet there - I may show her at ours. This time, we discovered the casino buffet - yum! Then on the way home, a great trip to TSC - as my friend Steve and I are frequently the...
