Hey welcome Kansas Kid. Always great to have another member.
Anyone having raccoon problems this time of year?

 

[Kansaseq]

YES! Been having terrible problems this year. I've lost way too many to the little ring-tailed devils. I cought one in the act, saved 2 hens and got off several shots, but it was dark, and I was shooting up into a tree. I didn't get him

Well there not gonna have one until July as Kramer Farms has already said but it is not very big at all. The last time there were only 9 or 10 venders all together and they come and go throughout the morning. (usually register about 7:30 and starts at 8 or so) And they are held at the fairgrounds next to the poultry pins. The only thing going on this weekend is a showmanship clinic tomorrow.

Yep, that's why I'm going to Columbus. I'll ask about it while I'm there since they host it. Closest swap I've heard of to me. Thinking about going to the next Yates Center one too.

Spent today catching, testing and tagging.

The clinic was a lot of fun. We learned tons. The speaker was great and the facilities and hosts were really nice. I'm really glad we went. Completely forgot to ask about the swap though.

Ah well, it was a good day.
