WHEW! Finally home and settled in! Had a great time meeting everyone. Hopefulle there will be a show over on this side of the state soon! With only 1 duck, I'd have brought both Lucky and Spike! ...Here is Griz (bit of a name change) I cut some of the dreadlocks out of his mane, and now he is snoozing in his crate. Thanks Em, for him. Thanks Miss Lydia for the eggs! And thanks for being a bunch of kick a$$ peeps!

Finally.....home, all the birds are put away, hubby's in the jacuzzi, and Sandy gets to sit for a moment with a cup of coffee

What a wonderful day at the show!!! It was so cool to meet all my BYC neighbors...I'm afraid if I name them, I may leave someone out... Neeley~~so good to see you again
Miss Lydia~~great to finally talk to you in person; sure wish you'd have found some new birds to take home. I never did make it to the parking lot to see what was for sale

Matt~~always good to see you, and THANK YOU for setting up the BYC event !!
gavinandallison~~you'll are just as nice in person as you are on the phone (which is not a bit surprising)...thanks oodles for the wonderful egg basket (now all the future Silkies will be safe) and the apron (gosh, I love that color)
greenskeeper~~really enjoyed talking with you, your mom, and your wife....haven't forgotten about your niece

LCorps & Rebel Yell~~wish we could have had more time to talk....I love talking Silkes....nice to know Pappa is going to such a good home
Nadine~~thanks for understanding about Pretty Girl...heck, your so close, I'll just deliver her

Em~~what can I say?? you'll are a wild & crazy bunch

I always enjoy spending time with Tonya, Kevin, & Cheyenne (who is NOT a little girl )
And though they don't come on BYC~~always good to see Cheryl & Becky


Know I'm leaving someone out, but I'll have to blame it on my 4 hrs of sleep...and age.
I've never talked so much at a show before, and still did not get to talk to everyone enough....theres always Unifor in 3 weeks !!


I suppose a thanks should go to Brian and the Friendship Poultry Club for hosting such a nice event~~thanks

Time for a nap

Told you I'd leave someone out!! lisser~~melissa~~I knew I was right about you--thankful Nate and the little black pullet have a home with you. You're going to give me some competition at the future shows, aren't you??? Stay in touch

BC where did you have your dh at the whole time? never did get to meet him. you deserve a good rest.. thats alot of work.. and at your age too

I'm planning on coming to the next one and hopefully I'll get to meet some of you next go around. My wife found out today she was allergic to ducks so we had to bow out before the picture

. Will there be another BYC pic next time? I'll probably have to come without the wife and just the kids but that will be ok. Looking forward to the next one and doggone it I'm gonna find my camera charger!

YES! I told my husband that too..."Wasn't this supposed to be RELAXING?"


BC, We were being CALM!

I think you are just judging us based on my husbands egg buying prowess.

Really enjoyed meeting everyone. Can't wait until tomorrow when I can go outside and get some pictures of all my new guys and sit and watch them awhile. I was just too tired today. I set up the ground pen we bought to quarantine them, gave everybody some food and water and took a NAP!

ETA: Griz looks like a NEW dog! SO GLAD he found a great home.

Unfortunately I missed the picture today.

I got there right at 11AM when everyone was set for the picture. I only meet few BYC fellow members and I only bought one hen. By the time I got there, was not much left. I was hopping to find one Silver Seabright hen and one Mille Fleur D'Uccle or D'anver hen or pullet, but I was not very lucky this time. Can anyone tell me if there where any seabrights or mille fleur for sale? I will try my luck again on the 5th and this time I'll make sure to be there early. I'm hoping then to meet more of you.
