Cool, I was not sure how far it goes, I guess that proves Nebraska is part of the Midwest! lol


There is somewhere I was and I do not recall where but all "soft drinks" were called "coke"..

What flavor coke do you want?   Blew my mind and I will be darn if I can remember where that was.

In Arkansas it's all "coke". But recently we've been invaded by " furners" that say " pop" or "soda" and even "soft drink". I don't know where soft drink comes in, them coke sure can get you though when you belch and it goes through your nose.

What I mean by "furners" is simply Yankees that come here, and done that ain't yanks but talk like 'em.

I always thought yuppies were suburbanites that wore matching workout outfits....

I currently have a very nice white bresse rooster out with my flocks of white bresse, ayam cemani, svart honas, crested cream legbars, polish and polish crosses, cemani/bresse cross and easter eggers. I'm only hatching out the brown/tan eggs until I put my nice ayam cemani or one of my svarts outside, hatch some fibro sbel layers then work on hatching more svart honas and ayam cemani until I get an unrelated new white bresse line. Oh and I covet frizzles. Plus I only have the 1 orpington, so she needs friends. Chicken math!!

Not to digress on the soda/pop/coke/pepsi hoolabaloo going on.

this was 12 weeks ago.. 9 more cx meaties plus 18 misc roosters gotta go soon!!

Funny you should mention that. I was wondering why they do not teach English (American Version) down south.... When I am south of the Mason Dixon my most normal response to a "locals" questions or statement is "Huh? What did you say?" Followed by "Huh< say that again, slower."

Question
I've seen waddles(a mythical cx known for his giant size, turns out he's not mythical I've seen him and he is a monster of a bird...) well my cx have seemingly stopped growing and arnt half his size is there a chance I'm doing something wrong or they arnt cx? I have them on layer fead now sometimes mixed with chick starter due to they are still less then 20 weeks and they are in a pen outside..

These were taken a week ago.. Tails are always up now so I'm assuming they are happy or atleast content
