***OKIES in the BYC III ***

Oh, they're so wonderful.I can't thank you enough. It just amazes me how just being a Serama can make them ultra tame and people orientated. They look a frosty gray to me, it's the prettiest color I've ever seen on a chicken. They're just darling!
 
I had to share this pic. This is what my arm looked like after shooting 100 rounds through my 870 shotgun during range qualification. The bruise got much worse over the next couple of days going all the way around my arm. I learned that holding a shotgun in the wrong way is a SELF correcting problem!!


ouch. i bet that hurt for a couple of days.

you learned how to hold it didnt you!

OMG that had to hurt! I had to customize mine because my arms are so short. Funny looking thing too, youth stock with 24" slug bbl, but I love it! Used to have full size stock with 32" bbl, waaaay too much for me to handle. Had to shoot from the hip with it or bring a folded small towel to drape over my shoulder whenever plinking. Shared your post with DH and he just smiled - was with Luther PD back in late 80's/early 90's.
 
Ok you all are killing me with all the beautiful Iris pictures!!! I love them, when we moved from our place in Carney I had over 45 different colors of Iris in my front yard, i love them, when we moved I made the desisioun not to plant a lot of flowers and such in the yard to have to take care of! I really miss my Iris though, theyr are my favorite flower, i have been tempted to try and retrieve some starts off mine in Carney but have resisted as of now. you all for the beautifull pics! And for the one whom said she liked the DARK ones, you should have seen the north side of my yard, I had Blacks, Purples and Blues in around 15 different shades, I have to say the Blues, Blacks and Peaches or Oranges are my favorite colors! For those interested in Irises, there is a lady in Carney that raises breeds and shows Iris, she has a sales catalog out.You will have to search it as i don't remember the name. Also there is a lady names Ann Barrows in Glencoe, Ok that raises, breeds,shows and judges Iris, she has around 5 acres of them. She sells to the public, she is listed in the phone book! Just for your info, Glencoe is where I grew up, a quiet small town. It is so interesting to study these small towns and to discover just how many STARS there are in or from them. Just in my little town there was a renowned auther, an award winning artist, The lead singer from "The Tractors" country music star, and many more, it is facinating all the tallent that comes from small towns in Oklahoma, we are a very blessed state, if you ever have some time on your hands, check out your town, I am sure you will be surprised! OK!!!! I am off my history/flower lovin soapbox!!! Want to say I am so amped up for Poops!!!! I love chickens and pigeons as much and maybe more that Irises!!!! LOL We got some much needed rain last night up in Morrison(NC OKLA), luck we didn't get any tornadoes and not too much wind! Yall have a wonderful day!!! Lynn Oh PS, I have a friend in Ripley, OK that has a bunch of Guinea eggs, if anyone is interested, pm or email me!!!!


Small world ! I lived in Ripley until I was ten , then moved to Carney for a few years . Most of my family is buried at the Carney cemetery . I loved going to school at Carney and especially my schoolbus driver , Mr. Wilson .

Love all the pics of the Iris blooms .
 
Awesome iris pics everyone there are some amazing colors.

The coop keeps the chickens dry, preditors out and was made of recycled materials ................. what's not to love?

Ksane, have you thought about learning to caponize? You could have the pretty boys w/o the hormones.

Modernman, great news!!!
