Thank you Wynette! I love learning and I am NOT thin skinned. I appreciate comments and critiques. If you can't be told what is wrong or how to improve, your birds will suffer and you will never learn.

You are SO right about that Partridge color. It just makes my heart sing.

The tough part is going to be waiting until the weather is better.

Y'all have really caught winter weather this year. We have mostly just had the cold but not much snow or sleet. Good luck.... do you have a generator just in case?

I have some Partridge from Horstman.... they are nice birds. They are bigger than my SPPR from him. When I get a pen to put them in I will get some pics. Chicks are a good choice.
