Do you do a lot of free-ranging? Putting pencil to paper and figuring 4oz per bird per day that is only 10 birds.

You gotta have more then that. Right?

Hey no fair editing while I'm figuring. LOL

I dont do much free ranging, but I do only have old english bantams, pretty small, I do have 4 big birds though

So im curious how someone from Blanchard is familar with Brushy Lake lol? Stay away from Tenkiller, its closed for memorial weekend of whatever holiday weekend that is coming up. I aint seen it flood like that before, its got bad before but this was crazy.

My mom's uncles lived over by hwy 101 and 64B. Used to frequent Nicut everytime we went up there. Used to swim @ Reeders Foed also. As for Brushy Lake we would go camping up there. Did you know a Henry Curl?

No I didnt know Henry. Been on brushylake several times though, its great. Did alot of fishing at Greasy lake also, you famiair? Great bass fishing in there but im more a crappie/cat kinda guy. Spent my teenage years growing up at Maryetta addition right by the school in stilwell.


Split Socket thats awsome your gonna do some incubating for the man, sounds like he had a rough time lately. I was gonna volunteer my services even though its a good drive but internet kept going down. I knew someone here would step up though.

Great photo - I love his expression!

I know, he looks as if he is about to eat that little chick! He rushed in after his campout, ran past me (no hello) and said "How are the chicks!" Wow, I've been replaced.

You will regain top priority, the chicks can't make chocolate chip cookies.

I like bantams as well and the wife loves the orientals most of which are still as big as a full sized bird. It's funny because people will argue that they are not bantams, they are way too big. LOL

Well in '99 there was almost no precip. with the May 3rd storms which is a good thing. Can you imagine those monsters wrapped in rain?

Good point. I may have to turn the weather radio on tonight. We were less than 1/4 mile from the tornado's path on May 3, 1999. I don't ever want to experience that kind of weather again.

We lost power for 5 days and had to show identification for about 10 days as we entered our neighborhood.
