This is Monique Gerald form Greenwell Springs, La again. (Just north of Baton Rouge) I just wanted to tell everyone hello again. I also enjoy reading and learning about my chickens. I work in a dentist office, and the people I work with think I'm crazy for having chickens. I tell them they are crazy for living in the city!! It's nice to have positive people at BYC I can relate to!!!

Hey there!!!!!!

I enjoy living in the country with all of my critters. They call me Ellie Mae Clampett and I respond to the name with pride. Nothing wrong with owning and loving chickens and other animals. I say they are jealous.

Hi! I saw Costa Rica on your info. I went summer before last and loved it. Such a friendly country and super pro-american. What's your connection?

She hatched a couple of poults in a bush in the front yard. They were waiting for me when I returned home from work. She was teaching them how to eat grass. It was sooo cute to see them doing what she was doing.

I'm in love! Beautiful birds!

Now here comes the question... How big are turkey eggs? Could they be hatched in a chicken egg turner? Or would I need to get different rails for the turner?

Rainy morning here - so I won't be moving my birds around like I had planned. Instead, the dogs will get trims & baths! I have to finish up my handout & notes on the backyard chicken workshops I'll be doing on Saturday. Look for some new members to our La-yers group, because I definitely will be telling them about us!

Hey Julie, this guy came by the store yesterday (visiting family here - he was from Austin) & said a friend's family owns the largest strawberry farm in Hammond and they also have a winery --- thought about your batch of strawberry wine -- I foresee yet another business adventure for you!

Thanks. The turkey eggs are a little larger than chicken eggs but they should be able to fit. You may have to place them in every other hole. You would have to test it out to see if that would work.

Raining here as well. Strawberry farm? Heaven. Another business adventure? Uh, I don't think so. I'm drowning over here now. I may end up consuming all of my product before the customers could buy it.

Yeah its wetter'n a swamp bog here too in the great hills of northern Vernon parish. I think I shall go on ahead and order my lilly pad and bullfrog seeds early and have them on hand for next growing season, Lord only knows I can't grow any chicken feed in this mess. I did get 150 hills(3 seeds/hill) planted yesterday before the toad strangler hit early this mornin. Looks like I will try to plant my popcorn seeds later on in May if I can get them in them and probly "punkins" and beet seeds an what ever other stuffs that mature in early fall IDK?

That reminds me of the Blue Bell ice cream slogan "We eat all we can, the sell the rest" Julie

Good mornin all

PS Sandy I am a busy person in the afternoons here(have lots of mouths to tend to at beddy-bye time) I will see if I can get time this evening to visit and pick up those birds?
