Eggs were easier than the chickens, probably. If the eggs weren't there, they may have wanted chicken dinner.

Thats too bad Steph. Bella looked very pretty, with a nice shape as well. Did she and P get along?
Going to Hutchinson this weekend for a swap meet that I was just reminded of. Gonna take David. Maybe if the starts sell, I won't have to take them to WI next weekend.

Hey, can someone help me? I saw a hen at a county fair in Minnesota the other day, but it wasn't identified. It was a standard size beautiful solid gray/blue color. I sure did like the look of that hen. Would like to add a few to my fall pullet order. Anyone have an idea of what it might have been?

Anybody out there in my area of the state that might have a few pullet chicks to spare? I need to expand my flock to have more eggs to sell next year. I like Buff Orps the best, but also have Red sex-links and Copper Marans.

Anyone live in Waverly? Looking at buying a home there and wanted to find out if chickens are allowed? land is over 2 acres and zoned R-1. Have been told can have any kind of animal on the land. Would also like to have a couple goats.

I wanted to go there once so I could also go hike in the caves - stupid bats got sick though and blew that plan. BOOOO!

I think we will stick to Waverly.

Bats... sick...? What the heck? Are you okay?

 

[pbjmaker]

They have a hiking trail that goes into some caves in Maquokets but earlier this year they had to close all the caves because the bats are carrying a fungus and they don't want it to spread from the area.
