Forgot to mention that DH saw a fox under our pole barn last night. He didn't have the gun with him. I need to go count ducks. I think a female was missing yesterday. And the other is sitting on eggs again. Momma duck was around babies in tow. She's the smartest one we have.

I vaguely remember meeting "everyone" that I met that day... lol, I am not trying to be rude. I love all of my BYC friends and acquaintances, it's just hard to put faces to names, and whom belongs to whom. And I chalk some of the forgetfulness to me being nervous, excited and a bit overwhelmed... I got a lot of chicken info (maybe overload), went to pick up one chick... came home with four... I brought my whole family then my husband got called to go back to work. My eldest daughter, Kaitie stayed with me and drove me home.
I remember more clearly Metella & Pyxis only because I spent hours with them...
I do hope to get to know everyone better.

GramaChick: we met I think I purchased plants from you, Comfrey was one... I was the woman with the little semi-blind cocker spaniel.


this is me... as you can see I hate pics... they always come out like mug shots and Ridley

Morning all. So glad the weather has cooled off some. My plants are going crazy. Blackberries are setting fruit again, tomatoes are loaded as are the cucumbers. My daughters garden is just crazy so we will be canning and pickling lots.

Looks about time to process the roosters. Those boys are starting to get on my nerves. Getting on my pullets nerves as well. Funny how quiet quad standoffish they get when their father comes by the run and just stands there staring at them. The Duke certainly lives up to his namesake!

Hoping to hear good news tomorrow on a new job. Say a prayer please.

I had a good time at nuttys. Looking forward to the spring chickenstock if it's not too far away. I hope to have silkies for sale by then as well as reds. Always a work in progress. The silkie chick's I have now are showing lots of promise as they grow. As long as the bear stays away, I should have some nice birds.

Have to finish some baby stuff crochet wise then back to the afghans. So many things I want to make. Going to teach my mother when we go down to visit. She wants to learn. Thinking of making some small things and posting them locally to see if they sell. Worth a try anyways.

Glad to see everyone's birds are doing well. Today is number 2 daughters birthday so I am taking her out for lunch. Have a good day everyone!

Glad she's doing well! Yes, they do not sit still for pictures. Getting good pictures of them is like pulling teeth, I swear. I'm happy to hear she's nice and friendly. People keep telling me their cemanis are skittish and unfriendly. I keep telling them they're not raising them right, lol! Here's the best picture I've been able to get of my GFF pullets so far.

Pyxis ... here is a pick of your sweet girl. I was feeding her, her favorite treat to get her to stand still.

Caught this guy this morning...wasn't the fox that I wanted, but a day with one less predator to worry about is a good day.


Pharm..I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Hope that you get it.

Pharm my prayers are with you.

My missing duck reappered this morning. I think she is sitting on a hidden nest. DH isn't liking having broody ducks again, but they failed horribly at it this spring. I don't think it hurts to let them try again.

Pharm my positive thoughts going out to you. I hope that this job is the one for you.

Next spring I might like to get a silkie or two from you... ssssh, don't tell my husband.

Do you have any Splash? and maybe some blackberry starts too, if you are willing of course.

LuvMyChicks1491, how you going to serve that coon?

LuvMyChicks1491, how you going to serve that coon?

Poached with a side of watercrest salad...or perhaps Coon Fricassee with a side of collard greens...Oh I know how about Coon Gumbo..

No for real the only way that I would try it is if you didn't tell me what I was eating...A friend of mine comes and gets them and brings me back the empty trap.
