The kid in this pic is mine, do you have any pics of him whacking it?

shelley! that is hilarious! Fr. Chuck is gonna give you a silly slap!

you's crazy girl!

these little button quail are nutty! they are doing great after their little voyage though! no stress it seems at all! your little boxes for them seemed to really help. good plan on your part for sure.

When is Crystal going to be picking them up? I'm glad they are doing okay, the guys that I brought home with me were glad to be back in their tote!!

I just wanted to say HEy to everbody.. I m still talking about the meet up to anyone who will listen./.. Shelly the Buttons are doing great I converted one of my brooders into a button cage with lots of hideys and dust bath and they LOVE it ... Plus i put it in my room so i can watch them and hear there sweet lil coos all night... They are doing great and really loving their new digs... They are a hoot to watch as they run out and then zip back in then out then in then out ........ and finnaly decide its safe ...

They are too fun ... Also the JUmbos are doing great and seem to like there cage can't wait til they start laying... I am still amazed at how calm they are.. Not one death shot to the roof of the cage yet " keeps fingers crossed they never do"

I started my eggs two nights ago so far so good .. My apartment management would probably lose it if they knew I was hatching chickens , turkeys, and guineas in my closet but oh well

... What they dont know cant hurt me..

We had such a good time and cant wait til next year...

Good to hear that everyone is doing well! I would be more worried about the buttons bonking their heads, the jumbos are too fat

Plus they are the most calm birds I've seen. Most of my quail are calm, the worst ones are the red-goldens and cinnamons. They freak out everytime I go near them!

Yeah, I remember hearing that as well! Oh, now where is my copy of that derned map!??

 

[miss_jayne]

the map was right on the invitation. it said we did NOT have to bring a dish to pass and that our kids could all bring their sleeping bags.

Oh YES, I remember now! Sweet!

I dont have kids at home, however, I DO have a grandson close...and he is a " sweet only child" of 9 yrs old.

Columbus is only a hop, skip, and a jump from me...maybe 40 minutes!??
