OK I need to know some advice. I had someone call me and they have some Black Jersey giants that are getting ready to hatch and they have them for sale, they were wanting a $1 a piece but said that they would take .50 a piece if I bought them all! Is this a good deal? I have never had any experience with Blacks jerseys and was wandering what everyone elses opinions were on them? Oh and there are going to be approx 300 they think they have 475 in the bator!!!!!

Hey everyone! I have had a busy evening!! So happy to have had sun shine today & yesterday, sure does help my mood!

I got the grass cut around my pens so i might stay alittle dryer when the flood come! Had company or I would of gotten the entire place done.

My hubby might put me in the chicken coop if I come up with any more chickens or eggs. The goats are giving him fits now.

Well I just turned out 24 out of the brooder into the coop today and have 50 more in the other 4 brooders I have. So I have some free space! Cant be having free space!!!! I am not going to keep all three hundred, I have some friends that are wanting some also and the rest if I dont get rid of them I will take to the sale next Saturday.

Sounds like you are ready to buy 300 Jersey giants. What auction would you take them to? Will you have them in time for the Jones auction on the 9th?
Black Jersey Giants are nice gentle birds that are large enough to eat.
Big Okie likes to buy large batches of chickens like that

I still have some soft spot getting to the pen and the inside is really soft but the grass was almost to my knee's, I was soaking my clothes in the morning when I would feed. I am slow in the morning without most of my mental facilties so I would have to change again!

How are you tonight Stimp? You haven't been around much.

The Jones auction is a long drive for me I take most of mine to Southwest City Mo., and once in a while I will take a load to the Afton OK swap meet.

Actually I dont event know for sure where the Jones auction is for sure but from what I here it is about a 3 hour drive from where I am
