Love the pics!

These are my girls:
This girl, Kiwi, my Dellie is the one keeping me up at night. The pic doesn't show the red color of her face quite like it is in person. Right now she's the only one that doesn't lighten up from day to day.

Persimmon, my meal maker is likely to be the second layer.

Apricot my brahma.

Olive, brahma.

Christine9- All your chickens are so pretty. It looks like they are getting close to maturity, so hopefully eggs soon! I love their names!

They are all so pretty, I need some of those EE's too, I love blue eggs...!!! So far they have the bluest I've seen!!! Gotta get me some of those...... Susie Q

I'm so disappointed. The person we were supposed to meet for the bantam olive egger eggs didn't work. I don't know if they didn't show or we just missed them. They didn't even tell me the next day what happened. :/
I have to come back to UT next month and I'll be in AZ next week and CA the next so maybe I can find some eggs somewhere. Wonder if they would let me carry them on the plane.

Why do yo travel so much? Maybe you can order those hatching eggs. I've had great luck with the bigger hatcheries. some of the smaller ones too and they can ship them to be there when you get back? I know it's frustrating when someone your meeting doesn't show, it's just plain rude especially if they didn't give you a call. Maybe you don't need those eggs? I just can't be rude to anyone. I just don't believe in it... Rudeness comes back to haunt you and bite you in the butt every time..... Or it could be that they're the bottom .00001% of the world that doesn't have a cell phone?
I could be wrong?

I travel for work. I can go months without traveling then times like this I have been gone at least 2 days a week for the last 3 weeks. I'd rather not do hatchery eggs or shipped eggs for that matter. I gotta be able to find something in one of those states! I have 3 people local to me that I'm going to get eggs from but I'd really like to find some bantam egger eggs!

I'm like you, I can't be rude! Maybe they don't have a cell phone since they never gave me their #. But why not an explanation the next day? I emailed and said maybe next time I'm in town we can try again... no response! Forget them! I'll have to find someone else.

I agree no response means if your buying from them apparently they don't care about your money. If your in business, even if it's just a hobby, what a great way to loose a sale! How folks can do that I don't know, it's beyond me. There are very few jobs here since several major employers closed down so I work at home making crafts, raising chickens for eggs and selling it all at our local farmers market. I have 2 health food stores that want eggs this spring so I'm expanding my coop. I've tried putting stuff on Etsy but my stuff never seems to sell there.... I'll post a few pics of my crafts, maybe I'm not doing something right somewhere.

A quilt I made for my daughter Abby A Bonsai Tree I did



a doll house I made. What do you think?

 

[trsturself]

Wow what a great doll house!

 

[craftiekids]

It looks much more impressive in person but I got liked all over but no buyers ever. I listed it for 4 months. I had it up for $250 and my mo-in-law finally got it from me for her friend but would only give me $100 for it. I made several others for friends and my mo-in-law had to have one for her store and it had to be black and white. I even put real lace curtains. The front door opens/closes, mini imitation flowers on the porch. I had used vintage print paper for the walls. I had the pattern for a kit doll house and cut it all out and painted the white house with black hearts for the trim inside and out. I even used real wood shingles and stained them. I even put the shingles in a real "staggered pattern". I'm a girl, but a genuine carpenters kid. I have more power tools than my husband has and it's really strange for him. So glad you liked the photos, I do this stuff all the time but don't have a clue where to market any of it.... you should see some of my cedar bird houses. My twin girls are always my inspiration, they ask for it, I can't buy it so I make it! Thanks for the great words! Susie Q
