They were too nice of birds to BBQ....
One of them was a gorgeous XXL Blue hen that came from one of Pinkchicks' huge prize Roos that she had back in 2010 or 2011. (mine were born in 2011).
I wish I had been able to take pics before they left today. After a few months with no Roo to ride...
I wanna raise quail & pheasants for a couple of years just to turn loose and populate my part of the river bottom. That, and I got tired of buying feed for chickens that were not producing!
Boy, there isn't much activity here anymore...I left & the place turned into a ghost town!
But seriously...I just sold ALL my chickens! Now I need to get 'on the stick' and find some quail eggs to stick in Pinkchicks' 'bator. I would like to get Bobwhite, California Valley, and Texas...
Pinkchick...I have been taking the eggs from my broodies. I don't want any chicks this year. Maybe next year I will stick quail, chuckar, or pheasant eggs under them. Too much other stuff going on right now. Monday I will start jacking up the house to replace the bottom logs that show rot.

Hello Friends (and others...) just thought that I would chime in to say that it reached 64 here today...looks to be kinda wet for the next few days...There is, however, a wildfire in the scenic Columbia River Gorge that has just taken off in the last few hours. Winds are 25-30mph....
I gave Elwood to a lady from Oregon. I told her to get on here and look for pinkchick. It's a sweltering 72 degrees here...overcast with cool evenings & mornings. Sounds like it might be a semi-wet weekend. The barn addition is done. ( idoubled the previous square footage) and I recently bought...
PINKCHICK....I'll have another 18 eggs for you by Sunday...6 Olive eggs and the rest super-dark Marans....I'll probably leave them at the store for you on sunday evening, unless this is not good...
