I'm not PnB, but I got this from an email list she referred me to...

"They are between Tahlequah and Peggs. Raymond Jones, the DARP Foundation, 918-207-7181"

Buster, I like this signature line much better than the other one - I didn't understand who it was that you were enamoured with, since I don't follow sports.

I went back to an email I had and found the following information for the processor. Buster, I am glad you had the name of Raymond Jones, because I can't find my personal note that I wrote his name on when I picked up chickens the first time. (they were supposed to deliver 3500 processed chickens to OKC this past Wednesday and only 3005 would fit on their refrigerated trucks, so my order was bumped to a new date)

Thanks for all that information Carla......

I moved my quail from the incubator to a brooder this morning and my husband just called me to tell me that although some are not looking like they will make it because I left them in the incubator too long, others are jumping out of the cage and running around the house.

LOL, that is funny! YOu never know it might work out to be a better coop for you! I can't wait to see pic's.

These are some I just got from Monty.lost one a day until yesterday,they are still in incubator/brooder.....my lights are still on my million little chickies in the coop.....just dont want to buy another light

my little chicks have feathers for the most part......do they still need the light outside? guess I know the answer since they are still huddling uh?

Just tell J that by having the coop larger than originally planned, you won't have to build an annex quite so soon.

Let me know if you need some extra shingles - I have some mismatched bundles you could have.

As long as they are huddling, they need some extra warmth. Otherwise, you run the risk of them piling on each other when the temps get even colder at night and the ones on the bottom may suffocate. This Oklahoma weather doesn't help with planning - it won't stay the same temperature and humidity three days in a row.

Only a Cowboy fan who is keeping up with the current team would get it, and even then it's a bit subtle. Jon Kitna is the backup quarterback to Tony Romo. More about Tony Romo than Jon Kitna. But I'm done being mad at Romo for now, so I've moved on.

Can't guarantee it won't be back after Sunday's game, though.
