Chicken Addict
Nice the model 1896(memberberry issues)? I have always wanted that old west thing(winchester 1886 lever action .45-70) never bothered with buying one, but a small unanswered desire. Bleeding Heart keeps me focused on garden toys and practical things outside of her tolerance for my chicken. I would have had my Malays by now if not for her reasonable fears about 3 foot tall stags free ranging especially after I got spurred between the eyes. I had to do a fast google to catch my mistake there regarding the Winchester. I'm also not allowed to keep emu or other large breeds. Now she did relent and allow me to get a start on 5 more straight run Blue Sumatra they should arrive in the next 1-2 weeks. Those poor sumatra roosts look so empty and wouldn't it be nice to have ones that are easy to distinguish from our Blacks workedThat and the fact they will be raised by the transition drug silkie flock and roosters and a bunch of crabby old hens should do the trick taming them.Too busy playing cowboy, most of the time, chasing horny toads in Abilene. My, that was a long time ago. From there to the Mojave Desert. Nice place to visit, watch for snakes.
Finally got my Winchester lever action.
I nagged for Malays for about a month but she had forced me to buy Silkies if I wanted more chicken.
