***OKIES in the BYC III ***

[Cjarvis]

We had jambalaya and fried frog legs with a side of sesame shrimp for dinner ...Yummy.
Had enough leftovers to make two meals for the MIL.
We are both full as fat ticks.
Thank you Carl. You made Roger's day!

Glad he enjoyed it, it was nice to be able to give something back after all the joy you have brought me.

Ok, Here is one picture. Chick is 48 hrs.

I wil get you some better Brown reds, you apparently have a cross of BB red x black. that bird will grow to be a poor BB red. A True brown Red will hatch completely black inclusive of breast no stripes or any other color. I will gladly get a few once we start hatching them. I am focusing on other varieties right now.

There is a Newcastle sale this week right? Think I will try to make it, because DH has duty. Chicken auction is better than spending the night home alone. Anybody else plan on making it?

Tonight I went down & put leg bands on some birds after they were roosting. Picked out 24 roosters that will be going to the freezer in the next 4-6 wks, maybe sooner if they fill in quickly. Asked DH how he felt about Capons, and he didn't object so maybe some of these Marans I am hatching will be capons????

I think my husband and I will go , have never been to an auction there . Did go to a poultry show there last Spring . I live really close so think it will be fun .

Haven't decided if I'm going or not I have so much to do and will never get it all finished LOL

 

[mefordz]

if it wasnt so dang far i would go, ut it is about 2.5-3 hour drive, and i cant see at night very well.


course if i get to cause a little trouble it might be worth it!

I don't think I could ever convince my wife to let me raise roaches.

3 hours one way!

Good morning okie land, I was productive last night & missed out on all the posting. So happy today is Friday! Other than a show Sat I am going to have a great weekend.

Morning!!!

So dang happy it is Friday, I could just spit. hehehe! Granma used to say that, did not understand it then and still don't. Does not keep me from using the phrase, though.

I am planning on going to Newcastle. I will be the one with the two weiner dogs running around. Yes, I am going to bring Stella and Stanley. Stanley is getting so big.

Okay so I have a pair of bantam dark brahmas I think I am going to part with. They are pretty small, the rooster is really laid back but the hen is a bit skiddish. Their type is okay but his coloring is really good. I just do not need them. If anyone is interested PM me.

Well I am off to prepare to mold minds and all that jazz. Hope everyone has a wonderful day. It is raining so that is cool!

Morning Sooner and all!
Glad you had a good evening Carah. Hope the weekend turns out nice for ya. We are supposed to have rain but no sales so I guess its okay.
here are a couple of quilts I finished the last couple of weeks. These are going to be at the june meeting.The blk/white one is called Box Kite,I forget the name of the pink one,but it was some kind of star. I didn't know the swastika pattern would show up or I wouldn't have done it. Diffentently not my favorite!

I have been working with these brown reds for 8 years, and I have never had a chick this color from the brown red pen. Guess I better not mate this again, just put them down on the ground and let them run.
