Okies in the BYC The Original

[Greybear23]

Well Monty I was going to say Whitehackles are a Mille Flour color a lot of the time and they usually refer to that color as a Spangled in most Gams Fowl, I have seen it in Hatch, Whithackle, Roundheads, Sometimes even in some of the Blues, the problem is with game fowl most of the cockers did not really care what color they were they just had to perform and they were bred with anything that got them what they wanted out of them, this includes some of the Oriental breeds and Indian Games, Peruvian Games and just what ever, just read an article last night about the Doms, and how alot of them originated in the state of Kentucky along the rivers edges where cockers would buy them up as they went down river to NewOrleans to the fights. there is some rich history ingrained in the Mighty Gamecocks, Lynn

Cool! I work at a home health agency here in Wilburton, my husband is a police officer at Eastern Oklahoma State College and my girls go to Wilburton schools. I see Doc Woodruff myself, but my girls see Dr. Campbell...and of course they all go to the dentist here in town, whatever his name is...Oster-something! LOL.

My son has a criminal justice degree from Eastern. He went to Durant after that. I see Dr. Woodruff also. I have nothing but praise for that man. I also see Dr. Osterhout, I cheated and went and looked at his card just now. I couldn't remember his name either. I am going to see him again Monday. Real nice guy.
My wife had the H & R Block office down there for years. She is a real estate agent for Signature Realty now. Small world isn't it.

Monty, this time last year I would have taken you and Jared up on your offer. I don't have much of a squirrel problem any more - but that may change when my garden starts producing.

After the corn massacre Titus my JRT became quite the Squirrel Bane. Either Titus got a new strategy or the squirrels were too fat and slow from eating all my corn. Titus kills them with one quick shake - no ripped fur or blood - then he drops them and smiles - doesn't chew them or anything. My boyfriend Jack has a neighbor who, when he found this out, asked me to keep them for him - he was going to do something with their hides. I had a freezer full of dead squirrels this winter. That got kind of old, though.

Yes, we have our 20+ acres in Eastern Oklahoma (close to Eufaula Dam) on the market, so we moved all the goats back to OKC. Without that underbrush and extra acreage, we were essentially having to drylot feed them - and mow the bermuda grass pasture they were in.

We have been looking at a 110 acre "farm" located South of Warner, but it needs a house before we could retire there full time. The two bedroom trailer house on it would be fine for weekends, but not as the only house we had to live in.

My "ideal" place would be 40 - 60 acres within 30 miles of OKC, with a decent house and some barns, and enough pasture land that my husband could have cows again. I like the goats, but he loved the cows we used to have.

Sure is...my husband is finishing his criminal justice degree from Eastern this semester..takes his CLEET stuff first couple weeks of June. I need to get into the dentist myself....been too long and the girls are due for a checkup. Woody is an awesome doc...he really keeps up with research and stuff. I'd highly recommend him to anyone.

A guy used to buy our stags each fall and he wouldn't touch one if it had white on its ears. He also didn't like them if they had the fuzzy white feathers at the base of thier tails.
I had some Copperback Doms (they call them Crele now) that were gorgeous.
I sure wish I had preserved that line. I was a sucker for Brown Reds and I really liked the Ginger necked roos.

We would love to have dinner at Krebs. We found out in February however that on Saturday, neither Pete's Place nor Isle of Capri open before 4:00. I wonder if that changes during the summer, when there are more weekend visitors in the area.
