Good evening all:

Go get them Blarney!!!

Fisher, your girls are amazing!!!

Congrats on Mocha, she's a looker.....

Well, since the fox attack on my #1roo, my roosters have reshuffled the pecking order, #3 is now #1, #2 spends alot of the day hiding in the coop, and #1 is very deferential....maybe he'll get his game back if not, that'll leave me with Olive eggers not CCLs....

and, I am really getting the urge to get more chicks/hatching eggs....so far, I am part of DH's Sandhill purchase in the spring....and I am going to get some BLRWs in spring....grr...still thinking Americuna and Silkie....I need more acreage....

Hi @stake, where would you get your BLRWs from next spring?

sooooo..... THEY DID IT!!! 1st place in the nation! So proud and happy. These kids have been preparing for 3 years. I've never been to nationals before, I had no idea what a big deal this would be or how many teams would be here.

Thank you all for wishing us well. I appreciate it.

our 4-H donated to this charity before. I sent the check and then received solicitations from them in the mail weekly for the next 2 years. It finally ended after I wrote to them. Made me sad that our donation probably went toward solicitations
I've had lots of trouble mixing turkeys with chickens. The turkeys worked as a pack to single out and attack chickens.
You're in.[/COLOR

I agree that they send a lot in the mail. We have donated to Operation Christmas Child for several years and I wish I could opt out of mailings by saying...'I will keep donating if you stop spending so much mailing things to me!"

For charitable donations of chicks, look into heifer.org.

thanks for the tip. I saw that it was $20 for a "flock" of either chicks or ducks. The price is good. I wish I knew what a flock meant to them. I would really love to know if the goal is to give them a group of hens and 1 rooster so that they can continue to get baby chicks and it becomes self sustainable. To me, that would be preferable then straight run or females only.
