Happy birthday to all the b-day peeps!!!

And Happy Anniversary to all those celebrating!!!

And welcome to all the newbies!!!

And get well to all those who are ailing, or with family members who are!

Love looking at all the coop pics!!

Cheryl, so sorry your ultrasound got postponed!

What a nice day today and yesterday turned out to be!!! I spent both days mostly outside puttering on the coops. I'll share pics in a bit maybe after I get dinner done.

Ultasol and CCG, I think DD has decided to get hatching eggs from Cloverleaf from her Bantam Fav's. Sadiesue's photo's yesterday won her over!!! But thank you!

So, on that note, I was doing soooooo good with my plan to not hatch until January! But now it seems the incubator will be humming along in December just in time for Christmas chicks!!!!

That thought had crossed my mind but since I ain't got much of a mind it was a very brief crossing.

You are too funny!
I am going to use that line!

Yeah I am a legend in my own mind. Just not much of a legend cause I ain't got much of a mind!!

OK I am going to throw this out and see if there is any interest. Here is the deal IF anybody is interested in a 4'x6' coop contact me. Wee could map it and dismantle to fit in a pick-up then you could take home and reassemble.

Not a problem on the birds. Silkies are definitely not the bird for everyone.

I have a bunch to cull over the next few weeks to get down to what I want to sell and what I will be keeping for breeding/showing.

I am selling off all of my partridge,.. they are very nice just haven't shown them much because they have never been my focus. I kept postponing it because they are so darn typey, but I'm not doing them justice.

My goal is to bathe this weekend or next.

You are too nice, Mr. Rustlin' dude. Did you have anyone help you decide on at least one bird to potentially show?

I am so hoping you show at Chehalis!

Well no not yet. Been busy but unless there is a miracle my RIR B hens will not go they are all moulting and look like quill pigs right now. The RIR B Roo tbd. Black Am B probablly. They are Cloverleaf and at one has already shown her quality at Stevenson.

Not to worry I will tell ya how good it is. Some ie CL, T HI, and cloverleaf have tasted how nasty last years was.

Just thought I should say hi again. I've kept up on almost all the posts.

So a big hello to all the new members. I hope everyone's special day is a special as you deserve. Happy Anniversary!!! That is the only thing we celebrate around here. Our 29th is a month from now. Come mis January we eill have know each other for 30 years. It might just work out after all.

I have been keeping tabs on the puppy love that is happening here this week. I think that this will be the last batch of puppies. I have been running around all week. I had to pick up my daughter's dog Saturday, then Sunday I went to Olympia to pick up a 90 gallon aquarium. Then I have been running errands the last two days. I finally got the quilts sent off to the long arm quilter in Utah. I have needed to do that for the past 6 months or more.

Jake, we have 4 cases of whiskey under the bed, shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh don't tell anybody!!!

I am doing good, considering.
Went hobbling on crutches to the van & drove to pick up elk bones & scraps for Boldogkennell, and she was not home all day so I brought the stuff back.
Great.
I did stop at Stumpfarmer's sis' to get the 10# of unseasoned ground pork, but they did not have any butt roasts

Necessary for sausage making....
