    I believe we might be set for 4-H showing now. We bought 7 guinea fowl, 2 chukars, 2 sets of roller pidgeons, 5 black copper marans, one silver seabright pair, one BB red OE pair, one pair of buff orphington cochins, and one pair of bantie polish. I know NOTHING about pidgeons.

    I am officially "duckless" now. A case of falling asleep during the head cold from Hades and forgot to go shut up the duck coop, and poof, all 6 ducks disappeared overnight. I only have 28 chickens to hold me over until spring.

    Hey, I'm good. Just nestled in for the winter down here on the farm. We've been lucky without much snow and so it's been easy living so far this winter. I'm not on BYC much anymore, just now and again for a browse around. How have you been? We need to have lunch again soon. Your half...

    If I figure correctly, you may all have fertile Iowa Blues hatching eggs from diverse stock by February or March. Perfect timing, may I be first in line for that order? :-)
