Very well said. Even knowing I'll probably never show, I still want to get the best quality I can find. I've thought about trying to find chicks, like I am with the Ams I'm getting, but I haven't had any luck finding any quality breeders that ship chicks. But I haven't exhausted all resources in the search either.

There ya go... my best advice right now... keep looking... if you can spare the $ to try more eggs, then go ahead *if you want to* and do that while you're looking for better... you might find better later, or you might get lucky with the eggs... but don't stop looking and do not settle for less than what you want and will be happy with...

Great advice. Thank you.

Wind has been howling here all afternoon, and my hair is full of static. Driving me nuts!

Got the Barnies delivered to their owner, who was thrilled with the hatch. She wants me to do another batch, maybe in a month or so.

Need to go back and catch up on the posts one of these days.

Awesome for shipped. Glad she was pleased. Repeat customers are good! Congrats.

So my quotes got deleted.

Phil, you don't need to just shoot 7.62 when you know somebody who works at the factory...

And WV, I hate to see you throwing all those Lavs back to the hens. Hmm. And I would love that bator.

One of the next handguns I get, I want a Springfield XDS.

Hubby has an XD and my son has an XDS. Definitely a good bucket list addition

I hope it feels better than you think it will....
Good thing it's national static Kling day!!!!
The only .22 I have left is a revolver..... But my favorite is my Taurus Judge.....

There's one on my bucket list - the Judge. Just haven't taken the plunge in that one yet, but always look at them.

Yeah... but... I NEED that...

Um... I can see you using one of those, for sure.

Ummm... bull hockey???

It's not about showing, or laying eggs, or even specifically quality... it's about what YOU want... if you just want pretty egg layers, get pretty egg layers... if you want a specific breed, get that breed... if you want top quality, SOP, get those... and if you want a specific breeders line, then go with them...

It all depends on what you want out of it and what you are willing (and able) to put into it... just don't ever spend money that you aren't willing to lose on hatching eggs... otherwise, go with chicks or starter birds... in the end, YOU need to be happy with what you have...

Excellent advice! Wish I had read it before I ever started with birds. But I think I've gotten lucky without knowing it beforehand.

I'm just happy to have 2 empty pens... and I still have Marans...

Messy here too, I got an obstacle course I should charge people to run...

Dang!! Take care of yourself! Hot soak in epsom salts... I got some with eucalyptus and works wonders...

Were you chasing Cricket? You're a lot younger than me so I'm hoping and praying your worst pain is over .

I hope it feels better than you think it will....

Good morning everyone

Thanks Rav, Oz & Phil. I did everything possible for my back last night & I think I got lucky. It isn't any worse this morning. Whew!

Good morning lovely ladies (and you dudes when you show up)!

Glad you made it safe, Bert. Sorry to hear you got more rain while the folks downstream are still trying to dry out.

We've been drier than normal this year. Hoping for a little rain this weekend.

this system came in from our west.

if I wouldn't have been driving in the dark, the light show would have been enjoyable to watch.....cloud to cloud lightning, and then lots of ground strikes too.....

Blech! I hate driving in bad weather. Glad you're safe!

thanks, just a couple of near misses.........


saw the remnants of a pretty bad accident.......three cars had 4 of the 6 lanes blocked, and no emergency vehicles on the scene yet......

slowed and spoke to one of the drivers and every one was ok, just waiting on tow trucks, and the po-po......
