Okay, so I just posted in this thread:

How does one say in a nice way that the drinking water is way too dirty?

I’m not sure there is a nice way, if people want to be offended they’ll find a way.

Those are some nasty crowded living conditions.

Was that red tub the drinking water?!? Are geese as nasty as ducks? I change my ducks drinking water twice a day but it is ALWAYS nasty. I know some people say they only change the kiddie pools every couple of days, I change my small swimming area (large low rubbermaid type bin) daily. That looked almost soupy though if it was the red one.

Yes, overcrowded was what I was thinking too.

OMG, don't want to be mean, but that water does look like an outhouse.

How long does the certification usually take? I'm so excited!! You have GOT to link the page here as soon as it's up! You don't have a full plate or anything! Holy cow!

Totally realized I never answered your question!
We have our paperwork all ready to go, we just have to mail it to J.C. Essler. It will probably take a day to get to him but then we'll be ready to go.

As far as the page, as soon as I have it done I will link it to here, probably in our signature.

Honestly, I just figured that the length of the certification process must be a no brainer amongst chicken people so you assumed I knew.

Honestly I had no idea how long it would take but my mother was able to talk to him and get everything sorted out over the phone. Much easier than guesswork and looking all over the internet for the answer.
