LMP, we did have time to stop in the Farmer's Market. Husband got some horseradish cheese and some hot sausage. Good to see food without the HFCS in it. His meat prices are competitive for beef, didn't look at the chicken that closely. But 3.50 for hamburger is cheaper than the grocery chains.

ah, now see....we could've been there!! Glad to hear you were able to check him out! His prices are great and like you said..same as the grocery stores without the added hormones and such! There is usually a very nice woman working there, Linda. Her and her husband were clients of mine, unfortunately he just passed away, so she was most likely not there for you to meet. Very nice woman

We just switched 4H clubs, we have a longer drive but our new club is a lot more active in showing. I don't know about the clubs in your area, but Penn Ag manages the ones around here.

Oops. That's what I meant.. :oops:
 
Is anyone in the Cambria or Indiana counties familiar with Indiana Feed & Supply? I called and ordered pullets from them specifically because my boyfriends dad spoke very highly and has had great experiences with them plus I love supporting more local folk- they usually are more personable and have better service than the bigger chain stores do.

I'm a first timer so when I called I wasn't sure what "lingo" to use. The older gentleman on the line was definitely not nice to me. I've called quite a few times since to check on the status of my order and each time isn't any better than the last. He told me originally when I called to make the order that as soon as he gets a bunch of orders from customers that they'll call in and make orders (he implied that it would be sooner than later). That was back in the end March. I inquired beginning of April and then he said not until May, quite rudely I might add. My patience got the best of me and I ended up going to TSC that day and getting a dozen of their chicks.

That was 5 weeks ago and I've had a great experience so far. I recently realized that I never called to cancel my original order. I think I'm going to just buckle down and still get the dozen more I ordered from Indiana Feed and Supply (The thought of having more chicks is exciting!). I'm just super bummed that I haven't been treated kindly, especially since I was nothing but respectful. It kind of makes me just want to cancel my order all together and not give them my business. It sucks because I've heard such great things about them.

Anyways, end vent. Just thought I'd see if anyone else has dealt with them and if they've been treated the same way.
 
So there was an incident i was turning the eggs and i sort of dropped on in to the incubator not from a hight height, but just enough to make a crack, and just my luck it was in of the three duck eggs i had in, it wasn't big just like hair lines, and i have heard that if u put nail varnish on the crack it should be fine so thats what i done ( straight away ) will this be okay they are 7 days into incubation, and i was developing veins, it was one of my farthest a head duck eggs (out of the three)

Best Success!
