Raspberry & Kimmie, welcome to the Michigan thread. With the exception of this grumpy old rooster, all the folks on this thread are extremely friendly and helpful. I know you will enjoy yourselves here. Be sure to click on the Chickenstock link in my signature line. It it the gateway to all the pertinent information about what has become a wonderful gathering of chicken affectionados. Lots of nice people who won't look at you funny when you start talking poultry. Also a excellent place to set and get a wide variety of birds.


The only real problem I've had with the editor while posting is the inability to get the text size to stay on the size I've selected and the occasional post that decides to vanish into cyber space just before I am ready to post. Plus for some strange reason it only does this on a post of considerable length in which I have just typed something profound.

I've noticed quite a few folks are very pleased with ability to change text color and use it frequently. I have found that some colors are very difficult for my old eyes to discern.

Ooh, Chickenstock! That sounds like loads of fun, and very helpful since we will be house hunting by then :] Thanks!!

I also NEVER go downtown anymore since I retired from GM, but had to go to Southgate the other day

YOU WERE THAT CLOSE TO ME AND DIDNT TELL ME AND WE COULD HAVE DONE LUNCH AND YOU DIDNT TELL ME AND I COULD HAVE STRETCHED OUT MY HAND AND TOUCHED YOUR CAR you were so close??????

I think I'd like to be 30 years younger but I can't remember what for.

Aw, thank you :]

I searched for your first post, cant find it...just where is "very southeast Mi"??? Everyone but RaZ lives about an hour from me. Perhaps you and I are closer?


Okay, I feel like a stalker- having Chickmates post and then this one...or desperate..lol.

Well I guess I'll try this again. Its already 37 degrees and more than a little damp outside. Not a particularly good looking morning but since I am here to face it it is a good day.

thank you wingless and Olive for the info, I signed up for the poultry classes. If any one would like to meet at my house I am in Belding or maybe a car pool lot near the expressway at Lowell or Ionia, we could car pool and get lost together

There's also a Small Flock Poultry Workshop and Pullorum Certification Workshop.

Raz thanks for the info. signed the petition,

Hi I live in the middle of Michigan "Gateway to the North" or so they say, actually I live near Harrison 1/2 off the road on a private trail. I don't have any chickens yet but will this spring. I can't wait, I always wanted some.

welcome Kimmie

have fun choosing chicken breeds, there are a lot of neat breeds on this post and many people sell chicks, they are soo much fun..

No one is up and about so I think I'll just go back to bed.

good morning Opa, been up for a couple hrs, had to catch up on posts and check out all the info sent in here last night. We have some heavy fog going on in our area, glad I didn't have to drive in it this AM,lots of snow has melted so the flock will be happy to get at the grass
