Wow, Fred. If you're not careful I might come and snitch those.

Lol. You want to go tangle with my FIL, more power to you.

I'll send my youngest to do the work. He's cute enough to melt anyone.

My 3 y/o is pretty cute. Doesn't seem to phase excitable old farmer. He's likely to argue with your kid over how much rain you got. Ad nauseam.

He sounds like a right character.

Does anyone here think they could make one of these?

I have an old girl that really needs one, she is so large she sways when she walks.

I probably could, for fifty bucks or so...

Seriously, though, what size is she? I could probably mess around with the sewing machine and make something. No promises but I could try.

"Culls." Mike Gilbert had them available. They must not have made the cut for this year. The cockerel has one toe that is a little crooked. Heck if I can see anything wrong with the pullets, but my eye is pretty green. I paid $15 each for the pullets, $10 for the roo. March/April hatches.

I wanted to start our flock from quality birds. I may have over paid, but I thought plenty fair for quality started heritage birds. That was his asking price. I found it agreeable.
