Hey Mike, I'm close but chances are I won't be around. I still spending quite a bit of time with hubby at his apartment in Texas getting everything put in place.

Also, next week I will be making a trip to pick up five adult Sebastopol geese that were GIVEN to me.

These geese were bought as goslings directly from Dave Holderread's "show quality" lines. I am thrilled to be getting these geese. The five consists of two pairs and one extra male.

WOW -- lucky you!!

Kuntrygirl your keets are gorgeous - congrats on ALL of your babies! & I agree w/you about the heat, bet we're going to have another scorcher this year. I run out early in the morning & late in the evening & in between I'm "hibernating" inside under the AC!!

I let my main laying flock out to free range this evening & they had such a nice time -- I took pics that I'll try & get downloaded & posted tomorrow.

Well I could be real nice and collect eggs for you while I am close

And could be really be nice and help out with the new geese causing space problems

Hope ya'll are doing good and safe over there. I am going down to pick up a bunch of woodies

Thought I could bring a few cuties or swap a few with ya'll.

Well CRUMB! I just realized I am breaking out in poison ivy in several places!

please send me healing vibes!
or else I'll be in my Dr's office Tues morning for a shot.

My Wellie eggs are SO beautiful-- I hang over the 'bator & wish they would hurry up & hatch!!!! one more week to go.....

Had to share a pic of Eagle & his ladies - let my main flock out to forage yesterday evening. It was so peaceful & nice just sitting there watching them (and probably where I picked up the poison ivy too). I caught this neat shot of him crowing-

Hope everybody has a nice Memorial Day. We fly the American flag all year round, we put it at half staff this morning & will raise it at noon. My husband is a Vietnam vet & my Dad a Korean vet. Thanks to all that served & remembering those who gave their lives for us today.

That looks like a proud rooster!! I like my roosters, all of them. Unfortunately, I only need 2 and I have 10. As soon as my smashed finger heals, its stew time!

It's been a while since I've been able to read up on everyones posts. I've been getting the site ready for my coop!

I'm so excited! Just got to move a few more plants. Then I get to go to Lowe's and get my supplies.

Anyway, just wanted to drop in and say hi.

Don't know what I was thinking. I completely forgot to ask the question that I wanted to.

Anyway, the site where I want to put my coop has alot of poison ivy, any idea how to get rid of this before I build my coop. I'm highly allergic to the stuff and I would rather not have to mess with it everyday when I go to be with my chickens.

My mom use to use roundup, but it always came back.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Use the round up and when it all dies and drys burn it
