Good Morning Everyone!


Big, Long Day For Us. Doc Just Left To Get A Hair Cut Before Heading Back To Work Tomorrow After Being Off For POOPS. As Soon As He Gets Back, We Are Making A Trip To Breckenridge Tx To See Our Good Friends (Glen & Beckie) That Came To POOPS With Us. Its A 3 Hour Drive One Way.

Hope Everyone Has A Great Day. I Will Be Keeping Up With The Thread On My Phone While We Are Away.

ARTSIE, I Am Glad That Suzie Gave You An Egg. All Of My Ducks At POOPS Were Laying. I Hated To See Them Go, But I Had Way Too Many!

hehe... noooo.... I forgot about it.

I had told mom to remind dad but that didn't work out too well.
Besides, when we got everything packed up and ready to go, mom said it was a good thing we forgot it because we had no room in the car.

Don't feel bad I forgot to get my eggs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd vote for them too. Then we would have a president and vice president that would pledge allegiance and put their hand over their heart when they did it. A cabinet that believed in God and the Bible rather than the koran. And guess what, we KNOW where they were born, no doubts about the citizenship.

Doc a.k.a. Hi-Jacker

Thanks Doc! Thanks Stimpy! I am honored.

When I was a kid, grandma said I think you hatched out from a rattlesnake egg and was raised by a chicken hawk.
I wasn't sure at the time what that meant. Heck I still don't know what it means.
I think she was saying that I wasn't acting like the little boy they wanted me to act like. (Whoever he was)

I would vote for them as well...but I wanna be Secretary of Agriculture....or snakes...is there a secretary of snakes? There should be! I should be him. that would be cool.


I am surviving on Coke Zero...kinda...the mamma is going shopping and will make it all better!

Do muscovies need water for proper mating activities? The three drakes I thought i got...well one is a her I think...welll the other drakes seem to think so

Morning Alllllllllllll Ya'll Okies, both oldies and Newbies

After POOPS I was wanting to let everyone know this. Of all the people we have chatted with on this forum, Teach was the BIGGEST surprise. Both Peaches and I were expecting a man perhaps 50ish with a goatee and a beer belly walkinga round with a Mt Dew ( inlieu of a beer) snarling at kids. WOW. He is much younger than we thought he would be.

We have grown to love this forum and the people involved. Thank you for the warm welcome and the friendships. We look forward to many more Family Reunions.
I came back to Oklahoma from 30 years of traveling the world to be with people I know and understand. ( Got a good wife in the deal too) This is and always has been Home.
But it is people like each of you that makes it home.

Hi-Jacker

Sorry, I meant to come back to this post to give my own limited experience, but got tired. I set up a gravity cup watering system last summer that I've found to be really good. However, it isn't usable in the winter time. The water source is a 5 gallon bucket raised no higher than 4' above the cups, and the cups stay quite clean. You can find the components for this system on line at GQF. It is quite easy to install, and very easy to keep clean. I think it can also be hooked up to a faucet with connections I'm not using (my water source is too far away).

By the way, my husband and I really enjoyed meeting and talking with you two.

Hiya BetsyOK,

Thank you so very much. We truly appreciate your response (it's amazing that you were the only one that responded - but I'm glad you did). Hmm, gravity cups; we will definitely have to try that as well. Someone told us about a drip system and we are try that too. I think we'll try both and see which one fits us the best. Thanks again, you're a gem!

We also enjoyed speaking with you and your husband. You two are too cute. We definitely have to get together sometimes and swap stories some more. Have a beautiful day... and don't forget to smile.
