Okies in the BYC The Original

[Okla-doodle-doo]

Evening all
Sounds like Ok is hot this weekend. Was here too! Al take care b ud,my wife the nurse said it can take a while to get over it so don't rush it!
Hey Ronnie I have a dog question.( You ladys might want to look the other way for a minute!) I got a new male dachsund today,he is a goregous redwith chocolate dapple,short hair two years old. I was hopeing to use him for breeding,but he only has a one testical descended. And its tiny. He is interested in the femalesa and obviously will breed them but do you think he would be fertile?

Okay ladys you can look again now!

At 2 years old both testys should of alread dropped. Ive heard of some dogs actualy only have one. From my understanding it can be genetic, so while he should be fertile he may pass it on to his offspring. That being said this is just what I recall about an old feist squirrel dog stud some men where talking about. The stud owner had claimed he was injured breeding or hunting ( dont recall) but the men thought it odd several of his offspring only had 1 testy also. Sounds like a gorgous boy. My daughters red dapple has light spots. Some reason the red dapples dont show up quite as well as the other patterns. Are you missing your puppies also? lol im glad there gone but theres always one or two or ten that you get attached to. If i didnt alreayd have 7 dogs id get a me a chocolate dapple or just a chocalate, love that colour!

Yeah, you need some more turkey eggs

Have you candled the eggs we sent you? They should be around 11 days along now, right? Just make sure there aren't any that are beginning to smell or are looking weird inside when you candle them. I just candled some last night and had to toss several that were clear and a few that had gone bad & were beginning to leak & smell bad. I'm pretty sure we kept all the dirtiest & oldest eggs & hopefully you didn't get any of them ... but we did have a lot of rainy days and the pens were muddy & some eggs got dirty. I just don't want you to have any explode in your incubator ... it is the worst thing that can ever happen ... just sickening

I was looking at the chicks I hatched last week and I noticed I have Naked Neck EE. More feathers on its cheeks than its neck. I hope it is a survivor. i was sure I had her in a separate pen but I guess she snuck out when I wasn't around. What a hen won't do to be with those handsome Naked Neck roosters.

Sooner, I made two runs this evening and got the last eight barrels and two of the last three pens. The last pen is stuck pretty tight and the wood is rotten so it is more just tin and wire than a pen. I am not sure if I will spend the enrgy to dig it out.
I want to make a scavenger run and just pick up every thing that strikes me as needed. there are still a lot of scrap wood pieces, scrap wire and metal.

kicking a rotten egg in the yard isn't very good for your tennis shoes either
