I just booked my room at the Marriot. Talked with Christina and she said they are filling up fast. Well, it is only 9 months away. I can't beleive it.
I just hope I have some to take. I am really looking forward to seeing Christina and Don and hope to meet some of the rest of the Club members. I met Bill in 09 and Doug and a few more members.
I would hope we could have at leeast 30 members or more there. I will do my best to recruit some more members if I hear they are going and they have Orps.

Julie, didn't you get the email, we are all stayin with Bill!!!!!!!!!!! Don Hey don't forget about Doug. He is just a bit further away from where the show will be held. I am sure he too would love to have you all over. I know my dogs love to have company over. Nice thing with them they do not touch a living bird. Now if one kiels over then it is open eats. You guys should all pitch in and rent one of those huge RV's. The people we bought this house from had one of those Greyhound Bus size RV's. And this place has electric outlets back by my pole barn built for RV's. Then you could really pile in some birds for the show. Then you will have plenty of room to prewash and prep them. Dry them and be all ready to go! |

Bill, can I just drop off some birds and let you prep them? Then I can go stay with Julie and Christina, at the Marriott.  |

Kathy,
Doug has forgot more about conditioning then I'll ever know. IF you want a real lesson in show prep, ask him.
Or just do the opposite of me. I raise high numbers together when their young, and wait forever to cull, and then only do I move them into the 8' by 8' breeding pens. Then the numbers will get reduced again until they hit near 10 months of age. So my breeding pens are my conditioning pens. Prolly not the best place for a quality Exhibition bird.
I am happy to be getting eggs finally from a few pullets. I have 6 fertile in the bator, 2 to go off here in 2 days. Hopefully!!

I need everyone to cooperate and start laying fertile eggs. I hear living sounds from 2 of the eggs ready to hatch tomorrow. I still have two punny Black pullets from mid November hatch and that is it. I will pop a pic of them here, maybe tomorrow when we get hit with the worst storm of the millinium here in Indy. Boy imagine IF we had the Super Bowl this wekend here in Indy. That would be a catastrophe! |

Thanks Julie !!
That might be doable for us. We always take our annual beach vacation the first weekend in October, so is hard for us to get off work that soon again...but I'd really like to make it.

Nah, no desire to show, but I would love to meet everyone and see all the birds. Hubby and I have never been to a chicken show.

You know - on second thought, after reading a couple posts here on the board, I just might change my mind and decide to show a bird or two. Will talk with the hubby about it.
