I am off to the SoCal Chicken Meet-Up in Norco.

I wonder if it is anonymous and has a 12 step program?

i just need to find geese still laying by then.

if not i will switch to chukar and pheasant and do the geese next season.

Mrs Oz has decided we should go for a pen of every table bird we can get.
,
I will be looking for Ostrich, Rhea, Emu, Cassawary are out - they are too darn mean and dangerous.

I still cant get her to buy off on rabbits.

rabbits are the rats of the Philippines
so it's like her saying 'let's raise rats for the table" .....YUCK

I brought home the creme legbar roo from HixSix for Hillflowerranch. I am waiting to hear when I should deliver so i gave him some feed and water. My room mate called me from my room because a rooster was in his bedroom.

i think i need a different box lol
