Okies in the BYC The Original

[TheBarnSwallow]

I admit I dont wear a mask when cleaning out the coop, and I havent had any problems as of late with not wearing it...but boy do I have a story ... I know for a year after we moved here I had Bronchitis and laryngitis I was sick with either or back to back for 8 months.. come to find out the house we were renting had black mold in the air ducts and when the heater or ac would kick on depending on the season of weather I was sick. but by the time we found out what the cause of my sickness was the Lord blessed us with a house on post(which was a miracle in how that played out

.. I had never had either illnesses until then... So I feel for you guys that get sick with that stuff regularly that was the pits spending my first year here in OKLAHOMA with that lung crap...

Hark!! Me thinks I hear two in the kitchen right now.

Teva got two little Lamancha bucks yesterday. Cute little fellas too.

cute until they start piddling on themselves and have "male" moments and stink all the time... especially during mating season

Well, what I've managed to keep Gerald from selling to coworkers for eating eggs ... I have a dozen frizzle NN, a couple dozen cuckoo marans, and then not as many of a few other breeds ... I have 3 MF d'uccle, at least 6 or so silkie, my belgian quail d'anvers just laid their 2nd egg got my first black tailed buff japanese egg & my BBR rosecomb have started laying!!!!

I don't know if we're for sure going to take them to the auction or not. I've been really disappointed in hatching egg prices at the auctions. I may need to put them on a BYC auction. But, if you're interested ????

Hey did you see the Joplin craigslist ad for SQ blue d'uccle chicks? I thought for sure you'd be bragging about buying some by now.

I have a rule about male animals. Any time I get a male animal, they end up being far more trouble than they're worth.

I want 2 La Mancha doelings.

I have 7 Lamancha Does and 1 Mini Mancha, and so far all that they have hatched were bucklings, I still have 4 to go maybe another Doeling with show up.. I just love baby goats ..they make me laugh until I cry

Good thing J doesn't read this forum. That might hurt his feelings.

Gosh, I don't know if we can get up that early, but I'll mention it to Gerald. I just love going to Mary's Swap Meet & running around & looking at everything for sale

.... and I always gravitate toward the row of critters for sale. I just hope the rain doesn't begin until after Saturday.

Well I was unable to convince Gerald that we needed to go to Mary's in the morning.

We wouldn't get much sleep if we did, since we don't get to bed til around 3-4 am.

I'm looking forward to some chocolate cake & coffee at the Fletcher auction on Saturday night.

He is the one who told P&B the exact same thing tonight.

Oh you are SO LUCKY!

I absolutely love the Lamancha breed of goat. Well, that and the fainting breed. There were 3 little Lamancha bottle babies at the Maud auction that went really cheap. But, I just don't need any boy goats.

Actually it is easier to put a diaper on a lttle buck. Just wrap it around their middle.
