*** OKIES in the BYC ***

[momma_raven]

Belated mornin' to ya!

Been runnin' around like crazy all morning, but finally got a chance to sit down and catch up with my BYC Okies!

I've got homemade bread rising in the oven and am making my list to pick up ingredients for the pecan pies for POOPS...

More rain today, but then it's supposed to dry up around here, I sure hope it does!

Maribeth, your spun orange honey was amazing on my popovers this morning. My popovers were crappy (they didn't pop) but the orange honey made them worth eating anyway.

New to Okie Forum. Live in OKC and rescued a New Hampshire Red Hen 3 weeks ago and she is a great backyard Chicken.....I am currently looking for a freind for Her. Anyone have a good chick/hen that needs a good home. I have been looking at Marans and Ameraucanas.....really have no preference, though. Just would like one that would lay some eggs and one who wants to chill in a good large backyard/city setting.

Maribeth can answer that better (poultryandbees) but what I can tell you is the honey is infused w/ an orange flaver (I don't know how) then is "whipped" giving it a different texture the honey that pours, and changes the color too. It is more spreadable like, but they as soon as it warms (like on the hot popover) it "re-liquifies" She said if it gets warm it will revert back to regular honey so you have to keep it in the fridge. She makes it I believe.

our hatches are always interesting, we get the tiny old english bantam chicks, then the modern game bantam chicks, not any bigger but lost more leg, and then we get our shamos, much bigger, more leg and way more upright, even as babies...

no, I really dont. They are all worm free, mite free and on 20% layer pellets....and they are all first year hens, I was gettin a lot of eggs from them a month or so ago, almost an egg a day per hen then just BAM, stopped laying...

When I have that problem it is generally snakes.
