Hello from Nova Scotia, Canada

I traveled to Nova Scotia for the first time this summer, and fell in love with it up there. Everyone is so friendly, and my dog loved it because it seems like everyone loves dogs. She felt like a rock star!
 
hello from Colorado! Enjoy the chickies!

My Dad's actually over there right now for a fall colors tour. I guess we have quite a bit of family over there... the Burgess family. As part of the tour they're visiting the Bed and Breakfast that use to be my Great x 3 Grandfather's house.
Lots of history over there!

Yes, it is beautiful here! I can't imagine living anywhere else! If you went through eastern Nova Scotia, you were probably pretty close to where I live. :)

Hi there! Welcome to BYC. It's the best place ever to learn about chickens and get answers to any of your questions. I'm from outside of Oxford, so only about 45 minutes from Onslow. I have four silkie/cochin crosses right now too. They are buff coloured and ADORABLE. Gorgeous feathering. I'm looking to get some cochins myself. I'll let you know if I found anything for you.

That would be great, I thought I had some more lined up but they ended up being silkies crossed with bantam cochins and I wanted ones crossed with standards. I am starting to think the first four I got are crossed with bantam cochins as well as they seem too small for 10 weeks old. Oh well, it is fun having them here even if they are not what I wanted.

Spent a lot of time in Oxford growing up, my father's family founded the town, Thompson's, and have a lot of family there.

Looking forward to going to Petitcodiac this weekend to the show they are holding and hoping to find some silkies and standard cochins or standard brahams or orphingtons if I can't find any cochins.

Look forward to learning more about birds here and meeting some of the locals and seeing their birds.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that mine are Silkie and bantam cochin crosses. My sister married into the Thompson family. I'm pretty sure I would know all your family!! I'd like to go to Petitcodiac this weekend too, but not sure if I can get away.
