Give me an idea of what you might be interested in, and maybe I could pick some up for you? If you want, that is. I'm always interested in buying, I just don't have any place to keep more right now! Plus I am wanting to get some pure breeds, and the ones I want are never at the auction.

I dont know? I am always looking to add to my colors of my cochins and silkies. They always have different stuff. I bought my first cochins there and that has been it. When I get to go I will be sure to tell so I can meet whomever might be going.

I'll go with you...If you go out 80/Parkway I'm on the way or if you go a different way then I can go to your house and we could go from there. I've never been yet.
So are you working much this week?

Hi Cindy!! Tell Layne that Cris misses him! Poor little guy, he so wants someone to play with!

We were on our way back home the other night and out of the blue Layne says, "Ya know that was a good little kid...". While we were on the porch talking that day Layne was giving Cris piggy back rides up and down the hallway...He said he accidentally dropped him once and was like "so sorry you okay?' And Cris says, "Ya I'm tough".

Yeah, that sounds like Cris!

They will not have another auction until the 2nd week of January. And I will be working Friday nights until the 2nd week of February. But I may try to go to London on Tuesdays? Wanna go?

I have been working on what and how I want my chickens. I just found out what I thought was partridge are just mixed cochins. I have blacks, splash, and a single red hen. I was told that I can keep my blacks and splashes together and get both colors from my black roo. So I guess I need to get rid of some roos.
I will keep my blacks and splash together.
Get me a red roo to go with my red hen.
Get rid of the trio that I thought was partridge.
I want to find some Columbian and Silver Laced. I guess that would have to be seperate to throw the right color?

Now I need to think of my silkies. I have several white of both sexes. A brown which I think is a hen. And a couple of red sizzles. Hmm what do I not have and what has to be kept seperate to throw the color right?? Any ideas?

I usually leave for the London flea market as soon as I drop my girl off to school. Like 7:30am. The earlier you get their the better your choices. If it is cold it is a waiste of time to go though. It is all outside and no one comes out. I will let you know when I go.

I have not heard of a 'brown' silkie, so either it is a light red or a buff. Depending on that, you could probably put them together. Since the red sizzles are most likely silkie/cochin mixes anyway (think that's how those are made) you could probably put the red cochin in with them also. And yes, you can put blacks and splashes together. If you have a splash roo, that one would be your best bet. You would get blue, black, and splash chicks from a splash roo, depending on what color the hen is. I think it works: splash roo X Splash hen= 100% splash chicks; splash roo X black hen= 50% blue and 50% black chicks; Splash roo X blue hen (which I know you don't have, but for future reference)=25% splash, 25% black, 50% blue. Not 100% sure though, I'm still somewhat confused on the blues!

heya all - just a quick hey - took a nap after I dropped Jon off at work. I somehow slept on my wrist and now I have a pinched nerve in my right wrist, and my pinky is stiff and it hurts all the way up my hand - makes it hard to type.

The roads were really good this morning, I hope they are as good when I have to take him back in january. I took the parkway to 65, cause I wasn't sure if I'd have ice or not. I got there in an hour and a half - so it is longer drive, but faster on time.

My dog Lily (who has been adam's dog, too, for years before he moved out) saw him get out of the truck and lost her freaking mind

She was whining and "talking" to him and jumping up on him - Lily never jumps on people.

phone rang, got to run a minute.

What a chicken! It didn't even rain last night, did it? It sure didn't look it! Poor Lily, I bet she was beside herself with joy! She will be a wreck when he goes back!

ok, back, it was mom, wondering if adam made it down ok.

I swear she calls me just to see if there's any drama going on - the woman needs a hobby. I don't have that much drama in my life, so if I'm tired or something, she asks if I am feeling down or if I am depressed - hell no! I'm just tired and don't feel like having the same conversation every day for a week!! she needs to call me less.

She talks and talks and talks, then she stops for ONE second and before I can take a breath to answer, she asks why I'm not saying anything - am I mad at her???!!! Sheesh. She is so insecure - it drives me nuts. This is one reason (one of the main reasons) I moved to Kentucky. It was worse when I lived within driving distance of her.

I don't know what hubby is watching out there, but I can hear Moses yelling at the Israelites

It isn't the Charlton Heston thing, it's some other bible movie.
