I have two light sussex and one mystery chick--it was supposed to be a White Rosecomb Dorking but it is BLUE with a black spot on it's head, a single comb and no extra toes...I think the lady also raises blue clean legged Marans?? Of course, no answer when I emailed her...the two LS are mostly feathered and should be fine...the younger one I'm not sure about but it might be okay in the sun...(with some shade). It's much cooler at our house and the older ones have a light on them at night but the younger ones are just with a 52watt regular bulb...

Your chicks sound cute! I was asking how you were going to keep little ones warm on the trip in the car. =}

Oh I see...I thought you meant once we get there & have to sit outside all day...that's what I'm worried about. The car will probably be 80 anyway because I'm always freezing.

Yeah and I've called and emailed this woman again and I'm just waiting to hear back. She's really flakey and I'm not a fan.

Umm...I have an Orloff, Light Sussex, Muscovies and Sebastopols on that ad--I'm assuming you're talking about the Orloff? Yes, he's for sale and so are the others, too.

Thanks for the offer on those by the way...but I have to pass...my husband told me the other night that he's NOT finishing my small coop before winter so all of my chicks will have to squeeze in with other birds until then (mixed breeds!)

so I have to sell even more than I'd planned on earlier...I have one single comb white Dorking I'll be bringing too because it doesn't make sense for me to just have one...

Here are the official directions I got from the fairgrounds people. I looked at a map for Starbucks and it looks pretty accurate. Take the Canyon Rd exit, follow Canyon Rd through town; when you hit the light at University Ave, turn right. Go through 2 lights, in front of the college, past a bowling alley, at 9th st go right, then you will see the North parking lot. Across the street is a Starbucks and a Dairy Queen and gas station nearby. If you have trouble just look up Starbucks in Ellensburg on Mapquest.

Hope to see you all there. I will be bringing some of my smaller birds so that we have some birds there.
