Hey Laughingdog...I live in Talbott

I am in your backdoor.

There is a lady on this thread who hatches and sells button quails I believe..go back about page 3. Her name is poultrylady. I believe she said she had 150 for $1 each but they where going fast. But I am sure she will have more. You could PM her too.

I have a corkscrew willows. They start super super easy if you want some to start. They are quick growers too. The limbs are contorted into corkscrews! I use to sell the dickens out of them when I had my greenhouse. They are not seen often. I live 1.2 miles from exit 4...in fact use to do billing for OD.

I could always meet your hubby with the cuttings..just PM and let me know if you would like some!

Yes, I would love some cuttings. I will let you know next time we are down there. He is gone till sat but might come in at night so...

I was lucky with this cold no real fever. Now it is mostly sinus and chest stuff. Just going to let chickens out made me tired. I have to get to walgreens to get some advil I am out. Just trying to get the get up and go to go.

Just PM me a day or so before you are coming to get them and I will have then ready. I like them cause they are unusual and even in the winter they are really nice to look at.

Been too that auction was not impressed at all. Flea market was just as bad too. Too many selling animals that were sick or had bugs like mite and lice. ICK I ran away. Sorry I can not handle over crowed condidtions on animals. Many people were selling off to lesson amounts but still had cages too small for number in them. I rather go to person place and see for myself how animals are kept before buying. That way I know what I might be getting myself into disease or bug wise. Yes, i do expect to bring something back if I buy from another chicken person. That is a given no matter what because of changing conditions and places. But there are some thing one can just naturally avoid like mite, lice and certain diseases. At a public auction it is not that easy.

How come noone told me there was a new thread for East Tennesseans? I was wondering why the Tennessee thread was so dead! Roane County (Oliver Springs) here, I've downsized to 30 chickens and have babies in the bator

Robo, baby chicks are supposed to be at LC Feeds soon right? Do you remember what day? I'm going to "need feed" that day
