Michigan Thread - all are welcome!

Sally, Mrs Mary and I had trouble catching one rooster once.

I think I heard something about that - at the chickenstock the year before last?

Sally, Mrs Mary and I had trouble catching one rooster once.

I bought one of Mary's lovely Chanti boys. We met in a store parking lot about halfway between us. The transfer... was less than smooth. High anxiety ensued! It ended well, and is a funny story now.

Someone in the parking lot filmed it with their camera, so it's on their FB, probably.

Lollll I'm sick of saying that I'm from the Midwest so I just decided to say finally that I'm from Michigan

Hello @talkinboutchickens ! What area of the state are you in?

Welcome to the Michigan (not Midwest lol) page, we're happy to have you! Anything at all you need, just ask. We're a fun group. We do a Chickenstock each year in June and it's nice to put faces to names, then!

Thank you so much! I probably shouldn't say the area I'm in all I can say is that I'm in the hand part, not the peninsula
OMG I NEED TO GO TO THE CHICKENSTOCK EVENT. Is it like a meet and greet kind of thing? Where does it take place? I'm very nervous to meet everyone lol I don't know why... Even though it doesn't seem like it on BYC, in real life I'm kind of shy and awkward and don't know what to say to people

Region is totally fine, I'm in Southwest Michigan. I used to live over in Brighton, and I always wanted to visit MiGardener in Port Huron... Maybe one of these days, I'll make it out there.

Chickenstock is in Lansing, at Delta Mills Park. Yep, it's a potluck and if we don't have bad HPAI, there are usually birds to trade. I'm a bit awkward, too, but it's really nice to be able to talk freely about chickens to other people whose eyes don't glaze over
