Thank you for the welcome and the referral! As for Cochins, I don't have a preference though the GL and the Partridge are glorious

I will take what i can get

I want a friendly, docile roo as I have wee children.

Yes Yesterday we had a nice but too short visit with Ron and DS and Broody and her clutch.

Hey before I forget for anybody that got one of my lillte pots of gold. Please save the jar and lid if possible.

OK I think Pierre is having a serious identity crisis. He has been crowing in the morning and now tonight he broke into the egg song for a long time.

you can also come to the poultry show in Monroe in March and check out the cochins and probably get some contact numbers to get more

okay, today I got the windblown, rain-sagged top-of-run tarp temporarily re-rigged

and I've figured out how to get the door of the crate-coop open, since the cratecoop is 7 feet high while the run is only 4 feet high -- it will just take a little bit of stapling or nailing, and a couple of pieces of the chicken-wire left over from making the chicken tractor

and I'll need to find the Makita battery chargers so I can drive the screws in to put it together; I prefer that to trying to hammer in nails ...

so I *will* have a place to put Dana's little cockerel and Dawn's less-friendly pullet, though they will only get a 2 week quarantine, not the suggested 30 days

still gotta get some sort of a coop set up to put together, and get it over to Julia's since she will be chicken-sitting for me while we are gone

you would think a short bout of cough-sorethroat-fever would make me feel worse, but I took a bunch of garlic pills and actually feel a bit more energetic than usual === who knew?

wish I could get my relatively lightweight A frame chicken tractor over to her, but it's too long to put in the trailer or to tie on top of the Trooper

by the way

for several new people on the list ... not all new to BYC, just new here

lots of great people, great advice, great attempts at humor; do NOT believe everything anyone says !

Welcome Kate! I love Whidbey Island.....beautiful out there!

Does Heather/Rare Feather Farms still have the gold laced cochins? I think she does. But she's in Eastern WA near Okanogan.....she has a new baby now and doesn't post as frequently as she used to, but you can look her up here or I think her website is http://www.rarefeathers.com/

edited because I had the wrong URL address.....

Stretched out on the back sunbathing tired chick

That's dead looking even by newly hatched chick standards.
