That looks just like mine. I got her from a breeder. She is beautiful, but a total spaz! I love her! Her feathers have that iridescent green in them when she is out in the sun.

If anyone on here has some that look like this I want one!

Okay, so those of you on Facebook with me already have the invite (except CR, because he's a party pooper

)

Here's a copy of the event I currently have in Facebook.

Date - 6/12 5pm-11:30
Due to overwhelming response in favor of a pig roast, we would like to execute this as a potluck.

What we provide:
Meat!
Pop, water and ice
A camp spot!
Fire!

What we need you to bring:
A dish to pass
A tent or a designated driver
Your own poison, should you choose to indulge

So that's the details.. PM me now or when it gets closer to the time for my address and phone number. We try to be pretty flexible around here.. have to be to survive.

We could use a couple hands to camp out the night before too, to help get the pig started. Beer provided

Took a short break from this thread.

any newcomers.

So today was a tad sad. . . We had our new kids dis-budded. The young buck was pretty good, but the doeling was a screamer!! It was SOO sad to hear it!

I am so glad dis-budding/horning goats is a one time thing.

Yes when we were into goats I told DW I am not going to do the disbudding we will have to get somebody to do that for us. Well then I was shown one of the best ways I have seen and did all of our own. I even had goatkeepers that had done it many times before say they were going to start doing it the way I did.

For those of you going to Nyrial's. I hope it turns out as good as the "Chicken Party" that many of us held in Feb. It was a lot of fun and KIM AND RON did a very good job of making it happen.

OK Ron sounds like a very good time for us to take the truck and trailer on a little road trip. Since they will all be passed out at Nyrial's

we will have plenty of time.

Hope yer keeping track and plotting our route for the night.

Oh sure, he can make the drive to RUSTLE chickens

I see how it is!

At least I know mine are safe

ETA: There will be non chicken people there as well, but we know who the BYCers are, they'll be the ones cooing over the chicks and checking for eggs in the coop

The others are a bunch of Boeing nerds, with a few others sprinkled in for good measure to balance out those measuring the trajectory of the fireball if we throw the gas can in the bonfire.
