Consider it yours, the shirts were 9.00 each & an extra dollar per X so that would make it 11.00

I am on the southeast side of Muskogee but work not far from peak blvd & york st. if you know where that is.

The other shirt is now also taken.

I'll come that way Thursday. I grew up there just moved down here six years ago, so yes I kow southeast Muskogee well.
Thank you

If you know a time I can meet you somewhere.

21 degrees outside this morning. Most of the hens refuse to come out of their coops. Four or five roosters are walking around, complaining. Maybe this is a good morning to make a pot of oatmeal for everyone.

From I-40 exit onto Hwy 177 South. Travel about 2-3 miles. at the 2nd stop light turn left and come on in.. No admission fees and enjoy the beautifull birds.

The showroom will open at 7 a.m. Saturday to receive birds and judging begins at 8:30. There's no admission, and people can view the birds all day., but must stay out of the aisles where judging is taking place. The showroom will close at the completion of judging, estimated to be 5 p.m. The showroom will open at 7 am. Sunday, with judging at 8 and continuing until Grand Champions are selected. Everyone will be released after awards are given and will clear out quickly.

You can try a coat of vaseline, I have heard that helps. Personally I dub the little fellows. The LF will often tuck thier heads under thier wing in extreme cold which will help preserve the comb but some will not and you will get frostbite damage.

Vaseline on combs seems to help. I know a lot of people say it's not effective, but I put vaseline on my hands in really cold weather, and it acts as a barrier to moisture and cold, so I'll continue to use it for my birds. I also put a little vaseline on wattles. The silly boys often dunk them when getting a drink. Frozen wattles can be really painful for your roosters. I have had some roosters get frost bite on their combs, even with a coat of vaseline, and the tips turn black and then fall off. In the spring the roos don't seem to notice that they have lost part of their combs.
