Sounds like you lost some nice birds. As crafty as possums are, I wouldn't be surprised if someone were to tell me they saw one morph its way to the inside of a cage and then back outside again. Unfortunately, coons are even more crafty and have long arms.
So sorry

Maybe we could get Jerry not to put the long table up, until some of us are there to sit at it. With them selling groceries beginning at 2:00, there are a lot of non-regular folks at the auction. Jerry's phone numbers are 405-812-7552 amd 405-623-9293

That sounds good, if I get a minute today I will try and call him, and if you call him he would surely not forget.

I am wondering if the chicks were actually bantams - which I think require a higher brooding temp than large fowl. I had them in a brooder with three large fowl chicks and wonder if they got chilled. It was before I got the usual brooder up an running and the temps were closer to 80-85 degrees rather than 90-95 degrees.

Morning Al - I will be there as soon as I am able, after a funeral this afternoon. Jerrry indicated he would wait and set up a table for us until someone showed up to sit at it, so hopefully that will work out better.

When Jerry posted some pre-consignments last night, he mentioned waiting until someone from the BYC is there to set up a table. I have a funeral to attend at 1:00 and then plan to load up and head that direction. I will try to call Jerry later this morning. Sort of sad that the numbers of that auction, the Fletcher auction, the Prague auction, the Jones auction, the ______ auction are programed into my cell phone

Can we say "addicted to auctions?"

Marybeth : Ya know the whole auction thing is just plain getting to be fun, I could think of alot worse ways to spend a Saturday night. I hope they have some things that I need.

It would be nice but nothing has hatched so far & I'm not sure having stable temps for less than a week will be enough to help them.

Maribeth, we new you were addicted, just waiting for the right time to tell you but since you admitted it yourself there is hope.

Good morning Okies!!!!!

My kids are on spring break and it is going to be a long week. Sister is home from the hospital and is feeling much better, still sore, but I think she can live with that for a little while.

We will be at Blanchard this evening. We went to Maud the other night, it has been a long time since we have been over there. It wasnt bad, had alot of birds for sale and they went at pretty good prices if you were the seller. We left at 10:30 and they still had plenty left to sell.

Maribeth,

I went back 3 or 4 pages and read that you lost every one of the Americana chicks you bought at Peaches sale. Were they
sick or anything such as that? If so, I will either return your money or get you more chicks? No, they weren't chicks that we hatched but
let me know what it will take and I will make it right for you. I'm sorry you lost your chicks.
