i'll be there to pick up a EE pullet and i hope to get out of there with just that one!

but... if anyone else has started pullets or hens already laying i would be interested in checking them out.

Wendy tell Mr W, I have a stunning Black doe ( she is a tweener, she has some gold tipping,) Not show quality but the Loin and shoulders are to die for, and she isnt finished growing yet.
and then there is a HUGE Lt Grey Buck ( he has some french lop in him, I didnt do it) built to last and comfortable as a well worn rocking chair, young too but no papers, The Black Doe does have papers though.

Dave:
Qant to volunteer to have the surgerys they are talking about LOL. kidding, I wouldnt wish any of them on my worst enemy let alone a good friend.

EveryOne ," Thanks There is a lot to think abot and a lot to fuss over, I will get throgh it, the hardest part is parting with my rabbits, they have been part of my arm for 20 years and letting go isnt going to be easy.
Thank god I dont have to lug a 20 lb chicken to a show table or a 10 lb bantam LOl.

Whooo Hooo!!! I have baby chicks!!! I bought a broody hen at the Milford swap a couple Months ago with the intentions of putting some Call Duck eggs under her. Shortly after I got her The Call went broody and hatch a baby. I went out to the barn when I got home from work and heard little peeps. I looked over at the broody hen and saw three tiny heads sticking out from under her wings. I'm sure it's no big deal to most of you but it's the first time I ever had a chicken hatch eggs and I am so excited. Boy are they cute, all different colors. I'm picking up 14 more chicks at the swap Saturday. I'm glad I have a 30X40 barn.
