I'll look for you, I called in sick today, so I can do some holiday "research"
BTW, I have ordered stuff from Europe on a last ditch effort, and so far, no complaints, the credit card companies do the exchange, which usually comes up more than I expected, but I get what I wanted, in a reasonable amount of time.

It is almost $100 with the conversion.

BTW: You need to have a talk with those Floozy wandering Del girls I have around here..........little coop jumpers, but I love themto pieces.

Floozy has imprinted on them all..... all hatches and eggs from here!

This is an all toooooooo familiar scene around here, a Del up on the tight wire just trying to figure out which coop they want to jump into.....imagine that!

We must be sharing the weather today. 63 right now with a heavy mist falling. Supposed to have storms this afternoon, which the rain is welcomed, but the wind not so much.

I've always wondered why my roos weren't laying.

Everyone is freeloading here in NY. I have One BCM girl laying, and like a dummy, I keep saying "just one more", and put it in the bator.
I should save them up a row at a time, but stoopid here is living up to her name.
So now, every day or so, I hear peeping, and get a fuzzy butt soon afterwards.
Holding off on pics, because you have seen my capabilities with the camera.

Morning Debbi and Stoo!!!
