Here I sit at my desk! I don't want to work! I still have stuff to load into my truck that I don't know where it will fit! I can't wait to get on the road.

For those of you that are already on the road, have a safe trip!

You may want to consider getting another llama if you want your llama to be properly socialized. If llamas are not socialized with other llamas they start to see humans as llamas and that is not good. They can become agressive (spitting, barging etc.) A single llama is a lonely llama no matter how much time you spend with them, since they are herd animals.
I am still looking forward to seeing your baby. I have two boys who are around 2 years old. They were grown when I got them and would love to see a baby.

For all you chicken raise'n pros Jason aka Chicken Flavored Cook-E would like you all opinions on our so far chicken coop... He is looking for any additional Ideas(I think it s so we can finish the darn thing without to much of a miss cause we werent going to show off pics until it was done)... That way Lord willing when we get up there he will have some thing to talk about with you all and what your thoughts are for good and bad points..

Meet the coop its 8*16

They are given from the corner of the wall aligned by the door straight to the fence(cant see in shot of picture) that whole square space to sun...

Picture taken from inside the door

This is taken next to the roosts in the corner

This here is the section for the geese/duck and turkeys
they are separated inside their pen(like a duplex lol), just need to build their separation fence ect
the rabbit hutch run is what I am using now for the turkeys to be able to come out of their side of the pen, hence why it looks so funky

Here is a side shot of what the pens look like

This is the chicken fence that seperates them from the chickens..


Now looking at these pictures there are some things that are obvious

for starters we dont have the following done yet

Pop Doors for the chicks

Nesting Boxes

Complete run for both sides of the avery enclosed with chicken wire ect.

We still have alot of cleaning up to do but is there anything you guys can give us tips with? any suggestions

PS: We only have 2 geese and 1 duck... they tend to follow me around and ended up being in every shot.. HA HA

Does it have any other windows? I try to keep my coop as well ventilated as I can, especially in the summer. It looks really good. Wish I could get my husband to work on my chicken stuff for me. He tolerates my chickens because he likes fresh eggs. All the work on them is mine though.

NPIP testing is done through the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture. The first time you have your birds NPIP tested, they usually send out an employee of the Department of Agriculture, since they have to test every bird if you have less than 300 birds (I think that is the magic number before they just test a percentage of the birds) All birds over the age of 4 months get tested.

Call Marie at the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture. 405-521-3864 to make arrangements to have your birds tested.

Perfect! Thanks!! I spoke with Marie and got the process started.
