Thank You all for your prayers, one of the girls that passed happened on the playground at my sons school, he did not witness it but was very concerned. Since I have been on here last we have also found that the Chief of the Wyandotte Tribe, Leaford Bearskin, we found out that his house burnt to the ground and lost his dog but he and his wife was fine. Now I am kinda worried
Anybody know where to move to safety???? In Oklahoma!!
Finally settling in after the long drive back from Fletcher. Everything has been put to bed but me. Saw some Blue Wheaten Old English and some American Games that would have looked awful nice in one of my runs, but coming home to an incubator full of peeping quail chicks was a happy reminder of why I cleared out those runs in the first place. I'm hoping to have quail of every color in this hatch; the Manchurian Goldens are adorable and I saw one or two so far that may be whites.
Maybe the insurgents in Afganistan will decide to end the war early so Bil can come home and build me more chicken coops, so I'll have room for all the chickens I want to get...

I spent all day Getting my slaughter area prepared yesterday. And It seems I would have to save money for the fletcher auction. Blanchard auction falls right at pay time so Its easy to save havent yet had time to spend it. LOL How much longer of a drive is fletcher? Wish I could have gotten my hands on at least a few. On a good note. I got my first few eggs its been one a day. I need all the girls to start laying now I have about 40 girls that are running behind schedule and 35 more that arent far behind.
I really wanted to post pictures of my new stuff I built and my processing from start to finish but this new temp phone doesnt let me upload them
I am just glad I finally reached good weights to be able to process the heat really affected there growth there for a while. My test subject cornish are doing twice as good as the first batch. I am looking for them to be ready to go at 10 -12 weeks. I know cornish x usually take 4-6 weeks but I free range mine so I lose some of that caged weight gain but IMO there alot healthier then The first group I tried off and on to pen.
