Heritage Days at Lake Storey....my brother in law and his wife do the Rendez Vous there and in the surrounding states. It really is a great time.

Yes, I know where Brimfield is. Formerly known as Charleston in Peoria County and has Jubiliee College doesn't it? Not that far from here. Was great hearing from peeps in the area.

Hello! I'm from central IL too! Pretty darned close to you folks in Weldon and Decatur. I'm east of Wapella and I don't have a flock yet but am reading up and learning before I jump into it. I do have my breeds chosen though, Ameraucana, Plymouth Rock, and Rhode Island for sure and maybe Marens and Orpingtons too. Maybe next year I'll be herding chickens!

Hello fellow Illinois Chicken Lovers! I'm fairly new to the frum and just wanted to say hello.

Is anyone close to Belleville or Fairview Heights, Il?
