Pam, Did I understand right, or misunderstand, are you selling your Marsh Daisy's? If you are and don't have a buyer can you PM me? I love the Marsh Daisy, they are my favorite breed...I have been on a three year search to add to my flock......I lost six MD over the summer......I would trade in 1/2 my flock for just MD's

Nice! I wish I could afford one but on a single income with three kids and paying for nursing school there is no way I can. I have considered trying to make one but I'm not sure I can pull it off not to mention not sure if I want to deal with the extra roos

On FaceBook I agree completely, I keep it for family emergencies. But ill check it out, ill get with campingshaws to see what she can help me with. As for the Auction Houses, I about feel off the bench when they picked up a few hens to sell as a trio and fluid drained from their mouths. Walking around the cages, I saw crusty eyes, nasal discharge, ect... I bought a few that day, kept them in the garage 200 feet away from my coops for a month before I let them near my pens. I ended up having  to medicate  all of  them with in the first week. Truthfully they did not known what they were selling, pullets were listed as cockerels. I came out ahead. I keep meds on hand at all time  The sellers are the ones who lost out. I am about to have all my birds test for the NPIP. Ill wait until he comes out to post them, I have sold my Lav and Blk Orpngton,  the owners are just waiting like me for the test results., then off to their new home in Texas.

Waiting for a test? I got my test results the day they were tested. It did take a while to get the certificate. Pam

Hey i totally understand! I didnt think i would ever have one either, but i found mine on craigslist. I did intend to have hubby build one, before i found that one. The way chicken math has kicked in, it looks like he still might The extra roos Are hard to deal with, for alot of people, and learning incubation isnt easy either! I book learned how to process poultry, as part of my raising chickens. Ive proccessed 7 of the extra roos that i raised, so far

But hey: your in Nursing school? Thats tough! You can play with chicks an incubatin after you finish getting your awesome carreer is on track!

Look for used ones. I think Turks was used she got an excellent deal.
