Same here. Everyone would rather go to Maine for the long weekend instead of being dragged to a poultry show. Otherwise I'd love to go with you.

If you do go take lots of pics!

My hubby sometimes goes and sometimes I leave him at home..More fun for me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Alot of good friends and company. Boy, so when I drive 8 hours to a show, I must be nuts. Iknew I was a little nuts LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL! I think those of us on these forums are at least a little nuts! The good news is that at last count we were not alone !!!!

Happy New Year my Faver-olle people.

yeah, i seem to have more fun when dh isn't with me at the swaps! i haven't gone to a show to see what they are like and i'm afraid that i might come back home with a car full of birds!!!

i have too many project ideas and unfortunately most of the eggs i bought to help those projects get going are candling clear

but the 8 LF salmon eggs and 2 of my own are showing that they are growing well so far! here's hoping for at least 10 little chickies by next weekend!

I can only speak from my experience but have noticed that some bantam favs become intimidated with some LF of other breeds, so would watch and feel them to make sure they keep good weight. elliz

Well, I sold a couple of chicks that at SIX WEEKS looked all the world like girls, and they were boys, and then there were two who turned WHITE out of my salmon pair! I found I had to wait until about four weeks to see a great deal of the black on the boys come in.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

First winter snowstorm ~ 20* out ~ and the girls and I (and DH!) are soooo burrowed in.

The chickie girls have fresh water, food, birdseed, and freeze dried mealworm treats. Will be moving to my BIG chair with my little girlie dogs, cup o tea and book ~ THE DIRTY LIFE ~ by Kristin Kimball. Great reading! Oh....and nice fire going in the fireplace!

Stay warm!

I read that - it was good, although it gave me some concerns about my desire to be a farmer. Plus, she married a farmer - what will I do? I need to get me one of those, I think, before I really get started.

My favorite is Confessions of a Counterfeit Farm Girl. I was laughing out loud! Still have to read her sequel.
