Okies in the BYC The Original

she's a standard- have been thinking i can try to integrate her with my banties- if i can't find a cochin flock for her- yes she is spoiled...

I have got a standard cochin pair... Golden laced cochins... I would love to have her...too bad I didnt know about her when you sent me the brahma.. Anyway to get her to me? My husband and I want to get started in the standard heavy cochins,,,, We will be at Blanchard This saturday!!

here is a pic of her- she is a sweetheart, and will hide on the porch from the aggressive ones, and make a sound like desperation if she sees them coming- what we can do is hold onto her until someone is going down your way- for now she visits the banties, i had to move her away from the flock of standards- so she is pretty much not in a flock right now-

she really needs to be with other cochins

I am taking so many vitamins but my body still aches. I need to get more dairy down but it makes me sick (except butter). Been eating lots of salads and steak and potatoes. Need some good face cream that I can use daily and doesnt feel sticky on my face. Oh and doesnt cost an arm and a leg. Have breakouts but not as much due to the fact I do not let stress get to me any longer. If I feel stressed I get out of the house and do something. Or play with my animals. Stopping smoking is going okay but my dr. said would cause me too much stress too quit cold turkey. I smoke 1 a day usually. You and Uli (misspelled probably) need to get by when you can to see all the new babies. I would order some if I wanted standards.

Actually you spelled his name right. Where are you living at? I would love to come see all your new babies. Things are really hectic right now with finishing up my project for my masters, getting the place cleaned up and more effienct and over spring break we are going to New York. After Spring Break things will hopefully settle down and we can come out to visit.

I live out by Monty but closer to mwc. About 7 miles from base give or take. If you get a chance to go to Attwoods in Norman and they have Polish let me know please.

She is gorgeous! I call my other hen and rooster, my fat ladies... They needless to say get a little more attention... I love cochins cause they are so mellow!!

i am in the process of quitting too, and found this thread on quiting here on BYC,
https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=290668

lots of tips and stuff- its hard to do, but so far am hanging in there

7-11 and braums ice and pumpkin seeds helps me but I have lots of will power also. My mom smokes a pack a day and has them layin all over the house. But there not my type so that helps too. I just dont want to eat alot instead of smoking. I am already over weight as it is. Thank you. Misti

well, i lost my dad to brain cancer- he tried off and on for years to quit- if you like herbal teas, try licorice spice tea- it helps alot, still miss smoking, but, i am trying it again- i have quit too many times to count

Sooner,

What if I made a cake especially for you? Would you come down and bring Madison?

BTW, the cochins are mine.

I wish I could but with all the shows coming up & other things I won't be able to make that trip for a while. Madison would be all for it, she has already said she is going next time, LOL.

I'm not sure what I am going to do with that girl, she has the neighbor taking her to the farm & ranch this weekend, told him if he brings home anything "live" it has to stay at his house! He will give her anything!
