So Greenfire Farms is one of, if not the original, breeder to bring them in. Straight run is $29 per bird. Did I mention I got 2 girls out of 7 hatchlings! My luck with roosters is awful.
They also have 55 Flowery Hen which is $29 per hen cause they auto sex. Really almost anything "flowered" or "speckled" could be added in.
I like the Orloff too. $19 straight run. They have beards. :p
Well get you some bearded ladies then, that is a whole different kind of fun.:lau

Hmm, what else.

I said their family doesn't talk, and that she needs to talk to her son. That they don't talk about anything real and deep, only about stupid shit like who is on Dancing With the Stars and because of that her son doesn't know how to communicate.

That he can't talk about his dead son because he doesn't know how to talk, and he is full of pain and he will never heal. That I know when he is sad and thinking about him, but he won't--because he can't, because of the way he was raised--communicate, that none of them talk about their feelings or about stuff that matters, and that it is a tragedy.

I told her that I love her son so much I would throw myself in front of a frigging train for him. But I love myself too, and that I am a good and worthy person who deserves a hell of a lot more than what she's gotten from them for the last 9 years, and that I was done.

I told her that I don't celebrate Christmas. I don't like Christmas. That not everybody celebrates Christmas (his family TOTALLY doesn't get that). That it is insensitive to insist that people have to participate in something that they were not raised with, that they have asked repeatedly to not buy me presents, that I don't like the hypocrisy and expense and stress and environmental waste that to me is Christmas.

I told her I am fine with Joe spending the holidays with his family, but that I prefer to be alone, because I like being by myself and I don't need to be around all that noise and people and commotion. And that they respectfully accept that. In fact, I might go to a yoga retreat for Christmas (that she could not believe. But I am quite serious. And honestly, that is the only Christmas present that I want).

And I basically said, if I ever see another family picture with Joe's ex in it, that I would wipe my ass with it, and set it on fire.

Because I am WORTHY, betches! :highfive:
That last part...i'm so proud.:hit
 
PS: We don't do Christmas either.

We haven't done it in 15 years.
We do Christmas, but it is more about getting my immediate family together than big parties and whatnot. We've been pretty stingy about Christmas prep since we got married. My DH and FIL are very "humbug" about the whole decorating thing. Last year my SIL decided to decorate the 4ft table top tree we pulled out of the attic of my in-laws old house so the Milk Drinker could look at it. She set it up so the ornaments were tied on and all we had to do was pull it out of the sheet we wrapped it in and straighten out a few branches. Next year, after we get our new house, I want a REAL Chirstmas tree. I think we'll get something live from a nursery that we can plant in as a hedge between our house and the neighbors. We'll do that for a few years until we get the hedge planted.
