Getting the flock out of here - a diary of a crazy chicken man

[scottcaddy]

Need a vacation after that vacation

Random question, do you know anyone in Cali (Sacramento area) that has unusually colored Silkies? To quote "light gray/blue, buff, splash, red, chocolate and and whatever other "unofficial/non-breed-standard" colors they come in".

Not Oz, but I know somebody who has different silkies. Do you need some walking dust-mops?

A friend out that way is Silkie obsessed

I'll stick to 'normal' chickens.

Nice job, Oz. What's the total on shipped birds now, Oz?

We have shipped around 600 birds all up.

There are over a hundred and fifty paid for that need shipping

We are consistently hatching over 120 birds per week at the moment but 9 birds are broody.

We have Guinea, local duck and chicken eggs keeping them amused.

I just got back to USA. It was hard leaving my family.

I had to take the morning flight as that was all that was available for the milage ticket. It means getting to the airport at 0500 and then trying to force yourself to sleep during the day.

I ended up watching 5 movies on the plane

I left feeling pretty confident that things will go OK for the next month or so.

Pig 4 is due tomorrow. The other 2 will be next weekend.

Unfortunately I transfered the photos to a flash drive but then washed it in the laundry. I will try and get some replacement pics sent this week.

Mrs Oz will be here in a few days.

Flash drives can usually just be wped with a moist rag, Oz. No need for the big guns.

600 birds is quite impressive.
