I agree! I am only allowed one bunny and I have him, can not stand wanting more bunnys! I would have more if they were not so expensive to get fixed! Hey all of you helpful OKIES I have a pair of
one year old crested fawn and white runner ducks that I am going yo have to sell......He Mr Snuggles chases my Herding Corgies! I also have some yr old bantam roosters that I need to find new homes for. How can I do this and make sure they get good homes? Any help would be appreciated!

I've searched all over and still can't find a good answer. What kind of litter should I use in my new coop? Anybody know about Cinnamon Queen hens? I always get the best advice here at Okies in BYC.

I use pine shavings but they take awhile to break down in the compost. So I'm gonna wach for other answers. I think I joined the day @Ksane did crop surgery on one of her girls. Scared me off straw for life!

Update on my shipped eggs from Gabbard Farms...
Got them in a timely manner (today, guaranteed by tomorrow).
Got an excellent variety (like she read my mind).
Got 26 instead of just 24.
I dropped one. Yikes.
One was rotten.
I really hope the remaining 24 are good.

2 Partridge Penedesenca
2 Golden Laced Wyandotte
4 Black Australorp (3+dropped 1)
3 Blue Laced Barnevelder
3 Speckled Sussex
4 Welsummer (3+the stinker)
1 Rhode Island Red
1 Buff Brahma
4 Spitzhauben
2 Golden Polish

I still would like a Cochin and a Swedish Flower Hen. But, alas, I shall have to wait.

Here's hoping for lots of pullets!!!

good hatch and girls girls girls! What an awesome assortment! I see at least 4 kinds I'm determined to raise one day

@HeyBigRhondaq you're in Norman right? I'm going to Stroud on Sunday to get SFH chicks from @cathiesue last I talked to her 8 hatched and I'll probably only get 6. Want me to bring the extras back? I'm assuming they haven't been promised to anyone else.... anyway, maybe it would work.
