Fantastic time...my DD and I learned a lot

Now I need a class on building a chicken plucker!!

I am going to get the book for dh so he can build me one (along with a coop!). Has your dd recovered yet? She looked pretty tired. I told my cheeps what I did when I got home. They gave me the stink eye. I dont think they appreciated my fyi!!! lol

Oh, that would be fun. Maybe my house in the summer. I have a pole barn if it rains. Lets see what we can do as we get closer to the WARM weather. Poor DH will go bonkers with LOTS of chicken talk!

I am 5 minutes from the end of the Northway and I-90.

I'll bring potato salad . Who's bringing Deviled eggs?

I really do think it would be fun. I am going away the beginning of July. I'll have to check into "family plans" How many prople would want to have a day to chat and hang out? Here or anywhere?

There is a Chickenstock already planned for the summer. I don't remember off hand when, but if you look for the thread on Chickenstocks, it is there.

It's on June 25 - I just decided I will be in Florida visiting my sister.

Maybe another time then.

I stopped in near the end, because I had to work today. Giving Sammy's friend the whole farmland experience..... LOL! It was all over by 2:15. I heard eggs went pretty well, but not what I could sell them for here. Call ducks did too. I'm keeping my eyes open for some fancy pigeons for Noah. We like the frillbacks. They had a lot of pigeons early in the day. Mostly rabbits & roosters at the end of the auction.

I have 1 Ameraucana chick out!

ETA: Dawn just called me -- the next auction is next weekend, so they don't run into Easter weekend. I'm going to go to work early so I can make the next one.

there was some really fancy fantails earlier in auction. they were bright bright blue. never seen ones that blue before. you know what the color is called?

No, I don't. But I'll look them up. Noah spends a lot of time at the fair helping to care for the pigeons & really wants some fancy ones. I have to figure out what kind of housing they need.

Here's the link to the Chickenstock: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=439952 It sounds like a really good time & it's about 2.5 hours from here.

Yes, she was very tired, but she is a trooper, I am proud of how hard she worked

. She says she is ready for our meaties to be processed.

I would like to meet some of you in the Albany area. Live near Middleburgh (Schoharie County) and work in Albany.

So excited, the local feed store has bantam chicks and will be ordering more. Plus ducks and other LF for a couple of months.

I'll come to an albany swap..! I'd love to rehome my d'uccle pullets to a nice home and I am sure by the time we do it I'll have others. All the other swaps/chickenstocks are too far away for me to haul birds.! Or if it's a just a party, that's ok too.

Live near glens falls, work in Latham.
