Okies in the BYC The Original

[MAllen]

Fuzzy Butts!! All Golden Buff Orpingtons except the little black ones. I've emailed the lady they came from to ask what they might be but no answer as of yet, they came from brown eggs. These are in a drying bed I made for them that's at 100 degrees on the nose. In the bator they were rolling the other eggs around to much and the humidity in there pegged at 99%!

The two boxes on the right of the photo are keeping the older chicks that already hatched and dried and the little bantams I bought away from these guys.

I love it !!!!! what a great idea, the little ones will be tickled to have them. Thank you very much for your efforts and hard work.

My Pleasure Al, How many do you think? I know we got lots of big kids too.

I think Monty has a list of kids and Eulaine (TJ's Na-Na) also has one they may be slightly different though but it should give you a good # either way.

Perhaps if you would like to help Beth (cityclucks) with the Pinata I got for the kiddo's I was thinking just the kids maybe 7 and under it is a small donkey, didn't have a chicken LOL. Just PM Cityclucks if you think that is something you would like.

Yes, sadly I misunderstood something from last year... I though since it wasn't a sanctioned show the game cocks didn't have to be dubed... but they did... and mine wasn't!

Sherri,
Thanks *blushing*!
I was talking to mom about my Hamburgs today and how they are the one "old faithful" breed I raise! My others may get 1st at one show, and 5th at the next, but those Hamburgs are ones I can always count on to place at the top of their class

I did win LF All Others class with my Ameraucana at the last show (in Idabel,) but sadly not here.

That MGB is a hoot! He is terribly brassy, though

Oh well, he still gets to stay just because of those long legs

The judge loves OEGB. It probably has the most birds of any of the classes as well. Some of the competition spends TONS on their birds too. The amount paid made my jaw drop!

All of that makes it a very tough class.

Yeah, that too!

Agreed, thanks to all the Okies that helped enable us! Oh, and my White Pekin ducks that got 1st and 2nd were from Don

I showed a pair of Yokohamas and got 1st place cock and 2nd place hen in the 4-H All Others Class.

Just doing my part with the oriental games...

Ok this is for anybody that has any experience with pigeons. I have been watching Ya'll talk about these birds and was wondering why the are called what they are and what they do, it sounds as though allot have very distinct talents, tell us their breeds and what they do please.
