Yeah, it's a drag to let the certification expire. I could have the flock tested now, but the chicks are too young and it would mean that only the tested birds are "certified," not the flock. So, I'll have all of them done in September.

But it's a total pain because I have lots of banty chicks now, healthy robust little cuties. Chabo (Japanese bantams), blue Belgian D'anvers and Nankin bantams. If we have a swap in the fall, I'll bring some of them then.

For now, at least I have herbs.

Who here is willing to go set up the third sunday of july? I am trying to get an head count on venders to see if Gabriela the owner will do it in July, I know July is a hot month but there is a couple wanting to try it out for July.

Do you have 'em, or want to? They are a really great breed.

I have 3 different bloodlines (actually my son is raising them, as I am concentrating on Dominiques and Red Dorkings) and am always interested in diversifying the genetics with fresh genes. We love the Nankins, they are so docile.
