***OKIES in the BYC III ***

[Cjarvis]

Oh that sounds amazing!

Is it just for show birds? Or is a buy/sell/trade/pow-wow kind of thing?

The show will consist of about 2800 birds, there is a buy sell area for the xhibitors to sell extras.

Hey Carl we're setting up cages Thursday morn about 9:30 if you get bored come on out . I may not show any birds, the ones I had cleaned up went in a stress moult all my others are on the ground ,to cold to wash them. We're hoping for a good turnout weather permitting, good prize money for the juniors , good raffle and hopefully good sale birds .

I'm going. I could bring him back to Coweta with me, that would get him almost home if someone can get him from me to you!

Quote: AWESOME!! I'll let mj know...


ok, sent her a pm and we can figure out where and when - our car doesn't have a heater (mice stuffed it full of persimmon seeds

) so hopefully we'll see some better temps by then

Great. Let me know for sure, I will plan on taking a pet carrier for him. He can stay with me over the weekend if need be, but will stay in the pet carrier just for biosecurity.

Remember that incubator malfunction? I stuck with the eggs and this morning I had three fuzzybutts waiting on my attention! A blonde, a brunette and a redhead (or at least a chipmunk)! When I left the house there was one more pipped and another peeping but not yet pipped.

Kysmette- is the chipmunk one a Cream Legbar?! If so I'd guess it's a girl!

Hello Everyone! I don't technically live in OK anymore but I was born in Beaver, OK and raised in the OK and TX Panhandles much of my life. I am in KS now, just over OK line!

This looks like an interesting thread and what with the cold weather I thought I might find a group that is dealing with the same!

Any other Panhandlers around?


I have a flock of 27 right now, sell eggs and chicks starting this next year. I am basically one of very few people in my area that raise chickens. I have 13 new additions coming in Feb to keep up with customer demand!

Right now my flock consists of:
1 Light Brahma Roo (Jack is our rock star)
2 " " pullets
Several RIR's and JG (they all look and lay the same!)
1 BOrp (love that girl)
2 Buff Rocks
2 WRock
1 Red Star hen
2 EE's (one's a roo and 4 more on the way)
1 SLW pullet
2 SLHamburgs (one's a roo)
2 Anconas
1 Red Star hen
I have production layers and 2 pullet 1 roo Buff Brahma, so excited about them!

Nice collection of birds.

from the Okie side. My better half is from there, raised in Texhoma.

MaryJo..so sorry to hear about Pearl.

Welcome to TaraBellaBirds

Hope everyone is keeping warm and surviving the children at home with closed schools.

Norman is not up yet for his bottle and we will be putting him with his mom today. Hopefully we will get an easy match up. She still has a full bag and he should learn quickly where the milk comes from. We may have to put her in the squeeze chute and drop the side to get him up to her......
