Congrats. Good luck on the poultry show. We do about a dozen fall fairs. Great way to meet others involved with chickens.

46 chickens?? Yikes!

How in the world do you get all of those birds ready??

The flowers are gorgeous!

Well good luck, I'll be sure to check back for your update! I'm thinking about taking a few (a few, not 46...

) to our local fair but I haven't decided yet...but it's not for another month, so I have time to make up my mind!

thank you! lol, well it's definately not that easy to get them all ready, it's very time consumeing and i think they bath me worse than i do them at bath time.

7 of us showed we brought home anywhere from 1st through 4th place and did really good. i'm not for sure how many of who got what cuz alot of tags the chooks ate, rotfl. some r missing from people pulling them off. so saturday night when we get all our ribbons and premiums i'll let u know the full results. i do know we placed for every class we entered though and should be for premiums about $150-$200 at my guess from what i could tell depite the tags all messed up on so many.

i found my other rechargables so i'll take as many pics tomarrow as i can. i have added alot of new pics of the ones at the fair from yesterday to my website but still have more to upload. so u can see who we took up.
