anybody go to the kellyville swap saturday?

They've started back up again? Did they raise the setup fee? It was $5 last year.

The baby on the left looks like spun gold with fluffy feet! What a beautiful color. If you have lots of eating eggs you might try The Queen's Quiche. I'll look for the recipe. I had it and lost it several times. I short cut most of the preparation when I make it, mostly because i don't have a butler, cook, or chef to boss around. I made it the last time our grand daughter stayed with us, and she was impressed that it wasn't mushy. I'm going to go find the recipe. It's already bugging me.


I found it! I don't do tuna as a garnish, but the rest is really, really good. Here's a link to the recipe.

I make quiche fairly often. That is what I did last week. I make my own pie crust since I only eat whole wheat flour. Quiche is very simple to make and should never be runny. Of course I do not eat tuna or meat but there are lots of tasty things to put in quiche.

Saturday we visited the new Nursery open on Post rd. along I40. They have a beautiful big birdcage for sale: 7' x 6' x about 18" deep. It has wheels, several levels in it that can be raised or lowered, and many doors. They had Finches in it but decided not to keep it. They want $700.00, alot of money but it is very beautiful, convenient and would be perfect for Seramas.

We also stopped by Mary's Swap and saw Michael and he said lots of people were buying Chickens.

Joe as fluffy as those birds are have you tried a little feather trimming around the vent to help with fertility?

the roo is only a littel over 4 mounths and i dont think he is covering the girls yet

Cathie, (okieridge) I moved 13 of teh eggs to teh hatcher, they should be ready for pick-up wednesday evening.
NanaKat, I moved all of your eggs to the hatcher as well. all 6 OE eggs are looking good they will also be ready for pick-up wednesday evening.

So very cool! Thank you so much, these are our first hatchlings from our own stock! We may have court that day to finalize our son's adoption (after 18 years in the works) but we will be there to pick them up : )

No rush.. I can set them out another day if needed. I might need to put them in the brooder, heck if you send curtis, they might be laying eggs by the time we are done talking..

First I want to thank everyone for the kind words during a time when they are needed. Family has all gone home and now we start back to the day to day stuff. Took a good deal of time to catch up on the pages of posts lots of good reading. All my birds are doing great, and all the chicks in the brooders are doing great. Tomorrow I head down to see Buster, I am excited. Be a nice drive and get to see some neat stuff.
