Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

[cristy17]

Hi Cristy from Menominee MI here. I'm as close to Wisconsin as a person can get other then living there. I was born in Marinette, most of my family live in WI, vacation there every year, and spend half of my day there. Plus, I'm a die-hard Packers fan. Go PACK!

I got the eggs for the Mottled's from BYC. learned alot too. you ever give a chicken a bath now that's an interesting challange.

Buck Creek, congrats on the ribbons!

I have been processing grapes like crazy, and there are tons more out there! I have not even touched a lot of the apples!!!!

The homemade applesauce and pie filling, along with the grape jelly and grape juice are worth all the work though!

Good Afternoon.

I wish I could of made the show.

Did Tyler do any of your judging?

Felt like fall today, eh!

fordmommy, nice picture. Thank's for sharing it with us.

Go Packers...big game next Monday at the vikings against Brett. Should be a good game. If we win that is.

Hello hello- bringing up the Southern Wi faction down here... it's fun being in this area as MadCity Chickens filmed around here, I know and work with some of the people in the film!

We have 16 hens and two roosters, along with a pony, quarter horse, NPGA pygmy goats, and ten spoiled barncats... just put our wonderful 10 yr old lab to sleep due to cancer, so are thinking of looking for a homeless dawg when when I go on maternity leave in Nov...

Our chicks are a mishmosh... Delawares, Ameracaunas (just got our first green/blue eggies!) buff orps, red stars, RIR and a silver laced wyandotte, and a psychotic Ancona....

littlefarm_bighappy from Waupaca. Sorry to hear about your dog but congrats on the new baby. Hope you share pics when you have it.

All my pullets have laid their first egg except my EE. I got 3 new layers in one day last week.

Hopefully "Biddy" won't wait forever to lay.

Those EE's take longer so be patient!

Ok, back to the scheduled program of grapes.......
