Before I forget, again, here's a pic of the new coop (minus shingle and the rest of the camo paint).

Base color is a sand color... got olive and forest green left to do.

I am back and I got em all done!!! the chicken plucker worked fine till I threw the 2 nd chicken in and then snack crackle pop and lots of smoke!!!

So I ended up doing some of the neighbors chickens to so the kids my DW and myself ended up doing 40 chickens today, I gotta say my DD jumped right in there and before it was done and over with she was pulling the heads off and dipping them, plucking the, m and getting them ready to be cut, I am really proud of my whole family but I feel they learned a very valuable life lesson!!! Hope everyone is having a great day!!!

Thank you. If only my daughter would bring her over to visit ... too many critters taking over my place, I'm sure.

Yeah, Tuttle football game was GREAT! My cousin's boy sat out the game though, since he bruised his hip last week, but they still beat Anadarko 31-0! They will definitely go to the playoffs this year!!!!

Oh, and then there's my next door neighbor's boy that plays for OSU now!!!! Cooper Bassett, #89 caught a touchdown pass last weekend. Hopefully we can watch their game against Texas on TV tonight.

Tuttle sure has some good football players .... and chicken people too

It may be a while before I can drag her away from the overprotective parents, but I'll work on them.

I'll probably be like Maribeth and buy her whatever she wants when someone (like Gerald did) hands a baby chick to her

Carla I saw on channel 4 this morning where Ethan wasn't playing last night but they did not say why. Hope he gets better soon.

On an OSU note I grew up in Stillwater so I am an OSU fan. However to the locals they are known as the "Cardiac Cowboys".

Hope they beat Texas tho that would be a riot, will look for Cooper.

TJ's Na-Na :

Grace - You're welcome to do whatever you want with the picture. The
one that y'all posted of you with your ribbon really shows off those
beautiful cochins better. I know you're not planning to come to
Fayetteville, but you are gonna take them to Shawnee, aren't you????

Thanks, Nana!

I am going to be at Shawnee to visit... but I don't know if I'll show... I would love to but the two-day deal doesn't work for us
