Okies in the BYC The Original

[poultryand bees]

I went by the Department of Agriculture to get some antigen for doing my own NPIP testing and Marie told me that they are going to have new tester training in two locations this year - in Tahlequah and OKC - provided enough folks sign up to take the training at the Tahlequah location. The class in OKC will be June 9 and the class in Tahlequah will be June 25. Quenston, Sooner, and folks closer to Tahlequah than to OKC, here is your chance to take the class without having to travel so far.
Marie gave me a different phone number than I have been using, so I will change her number in my signature line also. Her phone number is 522-6139.

That is why you can buy eggs at an auction or get some from your BYC friends! If you start hatching now, by the end of the summer you will be really good at it and ready to start building up next year.

I am sure we could come up with several hundred he could get to get his feet wet, start small ya know

Thanks for the info I will pass the word along, there are some friends of mine that are interested also that would be great to get one closer, but if I have to go to OKC I could make a 3 day trip and possibly drop and visit some Okies down that way!!

Al I have to clarify, wouldnt it be easier for the chickens to get busy in the breeding pen than you!!!???

Ya know, I have thought about buying some hatching eggs but we are in way over our head here on the farm right now. We don't have an incubator, brooder or any other kind of chick motel setup, HAHA. Believe me when I say that everything is on the list but I don't think it's a good idea right now so STOP PRESSURING ME!!

Q...are you planning to go to Blanchard the 13th? We are and I can't wait to go. Everyone better show up or I will be so sad.

This will be our first time to get to go so I'm looking for some fun.
