October Secret Sister Thank You

[wannaduacentury]

Our last "batch" of chickens (25 layers, 25 broilers) came in the mail! I ordered them from Murray McMurray Hatchery. I can't describe how nice it is to ride home from the post office with a box full of little peepers! They are so cute when they are young.

The birdies came on a Sunday, no less... and the main post office called us to pick them up so the little critters wouldn't sit there overnight. Now THAT'S service!

If only they would do that with your SS packages, too!

I'm down to one bantam, I miss my others that died (one of old age, the others an evil night critter) anyhow, we need to build a nice chickenhouse, next spring perhaps, I love feeding them and caring for them-I had about a dozen. Jennifer

I used to have ducks. They were pretty fun, and great eggs! Not much fun to try to keep the coop clean when everything is frozen solid though.
I remember when I first bought some ducks, from a local farmer. I asked him "How will I know when they're sick?" He replied "When they're dead." (Actually, not too far from the truth, because birds get sick, die, or recover pretty quickly as a rule.)

Got my socks today!!! I grew up in the Gopher State, but I always thought the Badger State had a cooler mascot...

Thank you so much!!!
