calling any one from missouri

[jellybellyx6]

What breed of eggs do you have? I would drive up to warsaw area and we should have some if not all of our pens up in a month provided it ever stops raining.

Since we seem to be doing intros....

I'm a few miles south of Jefferson City, and I've got EEs, Barred Rocks, and Production Reds. One kid has d'Uccles, and the other has polish bantams. I'm about to try incubating some d'uccle eggs, so we may have more d'uccles in a month. The polish aren't old enough to lay eggs yet.

hey all, I may have found an organic grain mill to supply those of us wanting corn/soy/gmo free grains to make our own feed. Has anyone else heard of this place in Missouri? http://www.pleasanthillgrain.com/buy_oat_groats_hulled_dehulled_whole_organic_oats.aspx
I'd be happy to split the cost if anyone else in or near SW Mo wants to purchase with me-- I don't have any particular feed recipe yet, but I'm seriously looking at the oat groats, red wheat, chia seeds, rye, millet, amaranth...

"thedragonlady" on the buff orpington thread has a recipe, I think it is 3 parts oats, 3 parts scratch, and one part calf manna, soaks the entire mixture overnight.....contact her by private message to see if my memory is still working.

I have a mixture of hens right now 4 Wellsummer, 2 Jersey giants, 2 Red sexlinks, 1 black austrolorp (that i am hoping is just hiding from me right it is more of a pet than anything) just got my son a speckled maran and we have 10, 2 month old barnyard bantams. Oh and we cannot forget about Fabio our big roo. He is beautiful. Love my birds.

Unlike everyone else. I am on the northern border of Mo. About dead center in the state. Which sucks for me cuz I am around nobody or any swaps. 3-5 hr drive for a swap wouldn't even pay unless I could sell like 40 birds at least. Just to cover gas. And most Auction houses that used to sell poultry locally stopped or shut down.

Got invited to a swap this coming weekend but 5 hr drive can't justify it. Thats 1 way.

BTW I am between Bethany and Kirksville, middle of nowhere.

In Springfield. I have seven hens and wanting to add a flock of meat chickens now.
