Want to just say that this forum is my wakeup every morning and I view each and every one of you as friends and family, it saddens me that some cn't seem to get along but I do understand that not everyone sees things the same way.

Two interesting articles on duckweed.
http://www.p2pays.org/ref/09/08875.htm and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemna. Very interesting is the amount of proteins: between 25 and 45%!
Water hyacinth also makes excellent pig feed. Its protein is about 30%. I read an article in the South African Farmers Weekly years ago about an Australian farmer, who built his pig sties next to his farm dam and washed all manure into the dam. On the dam he had water hyacinth (which apparently is not a declared weed there as it is in South Africa), which he used to feed his pigs. He cut his feed bill by something like 50%

I have several Barnevelder roos that we hatched from a January hatch. These eggs came from Peace of Thyme(vB)...We got 8 roos out of the dozen that hatched, so I can let a couple go. They are extremely pretty and quiet natured birds.
I also can let go a Delaware roo that is the same age. My breeding stock came from Wil Morrow and they are also nice birds with good natures, very colorful and great layers.
I live SE of OKC, Ok and can ship if I can get a box to do so.
