Ny-chicken-lover chickenstock '17

[Chicken girl 15]

Anyone interested in a white leghorn rooster? I will see if I can get a decent picture of him if anyone is interested otherwise he'll be destined to freezer camp.

I am planning on coming. I'm sure that my little sidekick (DD) will be with me. May try to convince my cousin to come. She is a recent convert and is addicted already! She lives in NNY and with 2 young ones it may be to hard for her to make the long trip, but I know she would love to meet you all. 

I don't think I will have any Flemish Giant rabbits. My doe passed last month and I don't know when I will find a good doe to replace her.
I will have Magpie eggs and possibly some ducklings if anyone is interested. My chickens are a hodge podge of eye candy so unless you want my mutts I don't think that I will bring any eggs, but I have a few spare roosters that I could save from freezer camp. 

May be looking for a silkie or two and what ever else peeks my interest. More likely some LF. I seemed to hatch only roosters last year. 

Oh I have been making these bags this year. I will have to get a picture of them. They are simple book bags with chicken fabric of course. May have some other hand made things late.

let your cousin know it is family oriented I have 5 of my own and several other members bring their little ones.

Just want to say that I will most likely have some silkies for chickenstock. The ones that I just hatched all look the same:/. We will keep a few but not all. So far I have 9 with 2 more pipped and 3 not. They look black or dark blue. The parents are all different "solid" colors and splash. I will post pics as they grow out.

Due in Friday or Saturday is another order of hatchery special birds. No clue what will be included but I know all small fowl and water fowl are going to be available unless I get welsh harlequin or runner ducks.

I have 3 EE boys I can hold if anyone needs them for breeding. They are pretty and good boys I just got snuffled into buying 7 "pullets " that turned into only 3.

so it turns out that all but 1 of my EE are boys so they are no longer available. They have moved to the coop in the freezer. Turns out EE boys are evil.

They are! I have found EE boys are the worst teenage rapist jerks.

I WILL be coming to this May event - but due to other issues/things happening - I MAY be having one similar at my place on July 29th ... In Brandon Vermont - any interest here in coming to a picknic day here as well ?

There will also be some horse people at this - so it is more a farmstock day and I'll have a speaker here on some homestead subject ....

Hey, I hope I'm invited to yours!

Yep - everybody here is - and it is near my birthday so will be wrapped up with that - since the last 2 years something happened to take our family attention and I haven't got to celebrate them ... this will be the big 50 for me - so it is 3 years' worth of birthday's in one.
