Happy Monday all !

Hubby went home with the kids to Cali for a week. Last trip for the summer I guess. SO IM HOME ALONE !!!!! Some one come hold me back from buying some chickens.... Or point me to them...
Side note will Jones Thursday auction let you sale chickens ? They did a couple of roo's a few weeks back. AnnaBell wants to sale some of her chicken or set up a lemon aid stand at brick town.... I am not liking either...I love all the chickens they keep the yard tick, bug free. Why sale them for $5.00 or whet ever ?
Anyway take care all...

Can't be, 'cause I raised all of mine outside and they've done just fine. Even that bunch I bought from Carla at Shawnee last year.

ok, then i may be looking for a couple more, i just am clueless... and miss the little dickens!

I might have some chicks by the time POOPS rolls around, might even be able to sex them at that point.

They'd be a color cross between grey and partridge. I have no idea what they will look like. The eggs are still incubating.

"2009 OFFICIAL AUTUMN POOPS ANNOUNCEMENT"

I am proud to announce to all Okies in the BYC members That the fall POOPS=
People Of Oklahoma Poultry Swap Has been Officially set.

WHEN= Saturday, September 26th, 2009

WHERE= OKC East KOA Kampground, 6200 Choctaw rd, Choctaw Ok
1-800-562-5076 or 405-391-5000

WHO= All Oklahoma members of the Okies in the BYC their families and invited friends.


After the very fun and successful spring 2009 POOPS event there was much interest in having a fall event, we felt that we surely must let this fine tradition continue in all it's fanfare. with continued support, we will strive to make this event even bigger and better than ever as our fine members deserve only the best.
For those of our new members and members who were unable to attend the Okies in the BYC POOPS, it is a family oriented affair, where members come to meet the folks we talk to everyday on this forum, and enjoy the one thing we all have in common our fondness of poultry.
This year promises to be one you do not want to miss, and as I stated, it will be bigger and better than ever, this year we are planning the following.

1. Food : We will be featuring a full pot luck lunch and dinner.
2. Poultry: The usual fanatical buying/selling/swapping of poultry.
3. A night of fun filled entertainment at the clubhouse.
4. Several static displays for your learning and viewing pleasure.
5. Short lectures and demonstrations by professional and respected members of the poultry and agriculture fields.
6. A Raffle.
7. And for the first time our very own Live POOPS Poultry Auction.
8. Printed programs of the days events.
9. POOPS T-shirts for sale at the clubhouse.
10. Depending on how many folks come on Friday, we are planning an informal cookout.

And much much more!!!!!!!.

A special operations commitee has been formed and several of our fine upstanding members have offered to give freely and happily of their time and expertise. They will head up the following appointed areas of intrest.

AL (al6517) & Monty (Buckguy20): Commitee chairmen.

Carah (Sooner) & Eulaine (TJ's Na-Na): Food and Beverages.

Grace (gracefullbantams) : Raffle

Marybeth (poultry&bees) : Static display's and lectures/demonstrations.

Beth (cityclucks): Entertainment.

Al (al6517) Carla & Gerald (OKCarla) : Live poultry Auction.

Carah (Sooner) : Tee Shirts

Monty and myself will be posting more specifics and details on these areas in a later post. As always Monty will be seeking Donations for the clubhouse rental and the cabin reservation info at KOA.
We tried so very hard to choose a date for this event that would fit 99.9% of are available members, the weather, POOPS planning and reservation schedule, and local and regional events.
The good folks at KOA have been so gracious to have invited us back and we recieved some very good positive feedback from are members, that this was a good fit for our needs.
As a group we are known for are steadfastness once we set our minds to a task, it is now up to each and every one of us to come together and contact the appropriate principle to offer any help and suggestions, ya'll know the drill.
The principle heads will start to post a list of names and services volunteered as it begins to come together in their areas.
So Okies let the festivities begin in the tradition of the most poplular group thread on this BYC forum.
