Promised my sister that I would post this photo of Bill and I sharing a nice moment on Easter. My sister lurks as she has time and secretly, she is very addicted to my chickens and what's really funny is..she thinks that Bill is her bird. How's that work...Bill lives here, I take care of him and all she does is come over a few times a year and talks to him through the fence. Everyone say howdy to my lurking sister.....Hi Karla!!!!

well here it is.......me and my boy

I hear ya on that...I've felt that way several times when I had tried eggs from people before the set up I have now. Downright depressing. hopefully you will be able to find a great deal on a sportsman!

Debbi & Vicki,
I think alot of us go through this. I too, have spent alot of money on shipped eggs with too few chicks to show for it. I do believe in the end when we have some chickens on the ground that we would in no other way be able to have we will be glad. I just keep trying while the season is here in hopes that I will be so happy for it when the "no eggs available" time comes along.....LOL. I am going to be hatching alot more of my own eggs though. I do so much better with them but first you have to get the breeds & quality that you want going good for you.
