I'm in shock. His work to support the heritage large fowl will live on. RIP BOb.

It's always sad to lose someone who has contributed so much to a cause.

Bob was one of, if not the, best breeders in the state of Alabama. He had been helping me get started with quality birds and I had hoped he would agree to be my mentor. He was kind, and generous, and knowledgeable. His death is a great loss.

Sorry WIsher that he will not be available to help you. He was very generous. And loved helping people get started with high quality birds. I can't imagine anyone having done so much single handedly to promote the heritage large fowl. I haven't stopped crying. . . I can't beleive he is gone . . . . he always joked about it . . . . and I prayed , not yet.

All of my hens have started to lay! I guess nooone in Arkansas has laying Bantam hens for sale, I have looked everywhere. I think the only ones available are the furry feet kind and We want none furry feet. Oh well I bet there will be plenty in the spring.

How is everyone doing this cold October morning? It is 49 degrees here in Arkansas the high is 70 and I am thinking me and the kids are going to go to the pumpkin patch!!!
