Thanks Poco,
We have found a couple of homes but it looks like the rest are going to have to go to Newcastle auction if we can arrange a couple of carriers. Since we sent our daughter off to fly helios for USARMY, and she took the cat, she also took our only animal carrier!

so what ones still need homes?

Robin, We have 2 folks coming over tomorrow to pick up "some" which means I really don't know what we will have. We most likely will have the little bantam gamies and RIR chicks and juveniles, but I'll post again tomorrow evening with whatever we have left. And thanks to you and all the wonderful folks on BYC OKC - for your caring hearts and love of birds!

Hope this helps you. It is Hwy 59 & 51, the building is in the Adair state park if that helps too.

Thanks, it should...bet I can follow pick-ups with chicken crates from there

Don't know if you saw this or not, it is very soon, a little bit of a drive for you though.

Ooops rexbandit, it edited out my quotes I'll try and fix that.

Robin or cross beak girl ate ALL day. You could catch a grasshopper & she still couldnt manage to eat it. No matter how hard she tried. As long as she has a deep feeder & waterer she was fine. Ours always ate from the top of the feeder, while perched on the side. The plasic 3 gal water worked well for her. The galvanized ones are not as deep I guess. We never trimmed her beak, since the way it was crossed trimming would not have helped. From time to time her beak would be very dirty. I would take a bottle of water & rinse it out. Overall she didn't ever seem to mind the cross beak. I think she ate all day since she could not get much feed at a time.

Sure....and you hesitated to take a jar when first offered.... mawahahahahaaaaaa another convert!!!

Bread and Butter Jalepenos
Soak for three hours and then drain the liquid and pack jalepenos and onion in sterile jars:
6 quarts sliced jalepeno peppers
1 quart chopped onion
9 cups water
1 cup pickling salt

Have your jar lids sterilized in hot water waiting

Place garlic cloves in each jar with the peppers and onion (for quart jars I put 2 or 3 and for pints 1 -2)

Boil vinegar and spices for three minutes and pour immediately over the peppers and seal jars with the sterile lids:
6 cups sugar
6 cups vinegar (I used white)
1 tablespoon tumeric
1 teaspoon mustard seed
1 teaspoon celery seed

I did not have to water bath these. You want the peppers to have consistancy. There is enough salt absorbed, sugar and acid from the vinegar to "keep" the pickles.
But if any jars don't seal, store in the fridge or cover with water in your waterbath canner and bring to a boil for 5 minutes and lift to cool down.


When you come pick up those wyandotte eggs, I'll send you home with another quart....

Greatly Greatly appreciated, I will trade you in Pear Butter.

I will ask Stephanie where she orders ours, I know they run us $3 with the pad. they are cheaper if you buy large quantity. I have some here if you need just a few.

I might take you up on that offer, how many can you spare?

I tried
Matthews Oak Ridge Farm Boxes

and cutler said that they were out of stock until further notice, maybe even spring!!

and I really need at least one for next monday.
thanks Nava.

Sure seems like lots of folks dont post on here any more. i remember when I joined you couldnt hardly keep read up some nights there was so much posting. Now some days It doesnt even change pages.

I think a lot of folks are spending their spare time outside since it cooled down. ( Not counting today or tomorrow). It will pick up, It has always been cyclical to a point. You have been missing a few days yourself as have I.
When do you start moving?
