Hey 4312!!! Good luck to your boys!!!
Crazy that they have to drive all the way over here for meets! Maybe next time that they are over on this side some of us can go cheer them on for you!

HI THi. thanks. The DH is over there, but the more the merrier. Middle son has won 2 lost 1. Oldest son has won all 3 of his matches so far. If either/both of them make it to "state" I am going to try and make it over. State is at the Tacoma Dome (I think that is what it is called) - it is in Tacoma. I may have to hit someone up for a cot in their basement or shed.....I really don't have the $$$$ for a motel room....but would love to see my oldest compete - as this is his senior year...actually see both compete...I am confident that middle son will make it to state too. State competition is in Febuary.

OK SO about the survey. I don't think it hasanything to do with having birds or with registering anything. See my neighbour who got one only has 2 1/2 acres, has no birds, has not shown, bought or sold birds and has not registered for or had any testing done for anything AG related. IT IS BIG BROTHER taking ashot in the dark in yet another attempt to shut us all down.

Hallo, Washingtonians! Figured I'd toss out an introduction here. I live in Anacortes with my wife and 3yo son. We have 2 chicken-friendly dogs (a Boston terrier and a boxer/pit mix). We bought a house last summer and I took that opportunity to fulfill my dream of a small backyard flock. I got a coop and found a craigslist ad with lots of pullets on Whidbey Island. I ended up taking 1 RIR, 1 Australorp and 2 golden-laced Wyandottes. The RIR and the Australorp were clearly red in the face and laying. The owner had a huge flock, though, and couldn't remember when the Wyandottes were chicks. I figured they'd be laying within a month or so. Well ... 3.5 months later, we finally are getting eggs from one of them and the other is getting redder and redder, so hopefully we'll see an egg from her any day now.

Any others in this area? Skagit has been a bit of a shock to my system. I never realized what a city girl I was until I moved here. But we've grown to love it. Well, that's about it. Hi! Hi!

Good to have ya here!!!

And it's not just asking about birds... It's asking about any and all livestock.

Yes and I menat that my neighbour has NO LIVESTOCK. No birds, goats, hogs, sheep, cattle horses or anything yet he got the paper. I just see no good use to it and think it a huge waste of time and money.
