No I don't know a thing about them. I kind of thought that after I get these bells done for the show you could come out and hear it and some of the others they sound much better in person. I have that little 6" bell and 6 8" that are all 30"+. So yes I know you want the little one but when you hear one of those 30" you may change your mind!!!!

Ok, I'll have to do that.
If you google lace-capped hydrangea you'll see how different they are from the mop tops and you might change your mind. Some people hate them some love them.

Id love to get one if there is one left. I love them my mom had one in her yard...

Illia has a blue eggs rooster so you could go back a few pages' Id say a couple days and see it there.
I have Marans not sure what your want but you can PM me also not sure what CL has right now, she's gotten eggs from me..
We are a great group so we can help you..

Isn't that the truth? You guys are almost like one stop shopping. So many beautiful birds to choose from, most anything we wish is available from one of you and it makes me feel SO much better to know my birds are coming from a place where their breeding is well planned, they're healthy, cared for birds, instead of ordering from a hatchery far away.

Yes, you are all indeed, a great group. I am so looking forward to meeting more of you on Saturday.

CL has/had Californians and they are a great meat rabbit. I know she just sold some, so I do not know if she still does. I used to raise French lop to show, they were big enough that if they were not show quality I butchered whatever I wanted. There are quite a few other meat rabbits (not enough cofee yet, I can't think of them)....but maybe CL can hook you up. I think she soild them to Illia...maybe Illia can hook ya' up here soon. Rabbits are super easy to butcher and I think they taste great. My DH just can't handle the idea of looking at faces and then eating them....mind you I asked him where does he think the beef and chicken in the freezer come from? I tell him it had a face....his response: I never had to see it.

Im the same way as your husband.. But I do want to do meat birds this year..

LOL...I have a broody too. and incubator that is to be delivered tomorrow. 3 girlies from you on SAturday and 2 from Zgoatlady. I am going to be having chickens coming out my ears. LOL.

Isn't it exciting? My Brinsea is due to arrive today. Just tracked it and it's in Redmond, WA right now. Builders are due to arrive this morning to get back to work on the coop, so I'm getting taco soup on in the crockpot. They're setting up a canopy in the backyard so they can continue working even through showers, and have assured me they are just a few days away from completion. I'll be picking up my FIRST two pullets from Pips&Peeps this weekend and am so excited!

So when are you going to start hatching and what are you hatching first?

LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!!

Say... how many days away are you from your first hatch of Brabanters? Have you candled yet? How is that going?

I have nine days to go. When I candled at one week, I had four developing for sure, and one maybe. Rainwolf has another six or so developing. I need to think about setting up my brooder.
