Ok the first two words I saw was "Opa" and "died". My stomach just dropped to my feet. I am glad that everything is ok and thank you for the update. We were all wondering where our Opa-wan Chickenobi was.

I once grabbed a glass of wine and sat at my computer hoping to do a little gaming. I didn't even get the glass up to my lips before the whole thing dumped on my laptop. I feel ya Opa!

yeah, Ive wondered too. Glad to hear he's okay and not DEAD. WOw that would have been a heart stopped for me as well. glad someone "knows" him outside of BYC so they could let ua all know.

Is it just me or did the humidity just suddenly rise by about eleventy-hundred points? Yeesh! I'm glowing.

Stacykins -- so sorry about your neighbor.

Wynetee -- Thanks for the update. I hope he can have his computer back up and running soon.

Opa I hope both you and your computer feel better soon

Wynette- Thanks for the Opa update. I was wondering where he has been.
Chikkaboomboom- Please come back. I like to read everyone's opinions.
Mom2- Good luck with the new neighbors. Maybe they are ok and were just trying to clean up their space and don't even realize how it has impacted you. Perhaps they can be allies- sounds like you could use some there.
RaZ- Cool worm pics.

I am glad to know that Opa is ok. Feel better soon Opa! Those summer colds can be downright misreable!

Welcome to the new members, even the ones that don't live here

We are more than happy to have you join our wonderful group!

If anyone is interested, I have two Barred Rock cockerals from Kathyinmo's stock, looking for a good home or stewpot. These are very nice heritage birds from E.B. Thompson's line. I just don't need 19 roosters

Free of course!

Hi and

to thread. I saw your page, I too have rocks and reds. Only 2 of each. Also 2 Brahmas, 2 ducks, had 2 Jersey Giants, now only 1

and 5 buff Chanteclers, only 2 of those are hens. Not all are laying yet. Looking for homes for chante roos...hate the thot of freezer camp but if I must, I must.

Thank you, and I am so sorry about your loss. I had 7 chickens die this summer

Oh and I updated my page. So you are more than welcome to look if you'd like!!!!!

As much as it sucks, freezer camp is definitely the reality of surplus roos. I can't believe there is another roo D: I was hoping you'd have 3 girls. I wonder if the sex split was exactly 50/50 and the chante that didn't make it, Dawn, was a girl? She certainly was dainty.

I know I have excess araucana roos that don't meet the standards I want (tailed, not tufted, etc.) so they'll be going to freezer camp when they get older.

My new Fav Bantams...

They are so sweet and fit in with the rest of my flock so easily. Today was the first time I was able to get Mr. Fluffers to eat out of my hand. Rosie and Buffy are a little skittish yet about eating from me, but will come almost to touching distance and wait for bread, cucumbers, whatever the treat lady brings... LOL

Very pretty Nova! Before long they will start running up to you and demanding your attention. heh heh

Today I went into the coop and yelled "Blueberry!". Everyone came running and there was a wild mashup at the coop door

poor Blueberry desperately trying to push her little fluffy butt through the crowd. She got to me though

One of my BR's pecked me in the rear end....I am thinking she was a little jealous. Ha!

I am in desperate need of egg cartons. I put out a APB on my company's internal swap board today so hopefully there will be free cartons in my near future.
