Hi All,
Sienna Ranch sounds nice. FYI the local Marans people are having a get-together on March 31st, so I don't know if that matters to anyone but me when choosing a date for a picnic. I can always picnic hop...!
Hope everyone is well. I was on vacation, then of course work pays you back for having fun...
Updates from Healdsburg...My Splash Marans are back from the Land of Molt (similar to the Land of OZ, but scarier!) and so I have hatching eggs if anyone is intersted! Got a 1st place in the Stockton show with them, too! Both Wheaten AM's that I kept from my last March Blehm chick order are also done molting, and look spectacular! I'll have to post a photo...of them in their new nesting boxes! Yippee!! (Thanks to Judy and Cheryl's helping hands!) Making a new pen for meat birds and BOYs. Any comments on what to get for meat bird chicks?
I have about 4 hatches I want to do NOW and no stinkin' broody hens this year at all! Last year I couldn't PAY my cochins not to go broody... (OK, bribe with treats, I mean.) GRRR... I can't believe I'm thinking of doing chicks...what a pain. Here, broody broody... Here, broody broody....
Cheers!
Dawn
