Re: Good Morning!
Picked up FFancier and The Exhibitor at show last weekend. Both give the same info. Pigeon dec 2 poultry dec 9. That's all I know.
never mind Silkie Sue beat me to the response.
Anyway...I'm likely going to Dixie Classic (no birds)on the 2nd but still hope to get to Sarnia on the 9th. I better get an entry form going. Come on Al. Bring those red birds to put up against my speckled ones. :)

Re: Good Morning!
Hahaha Dom I wish. None of my reds will be in show condition. I will be there but probably not with any of our birds. Shall see though.

Re: Good Morning!
Good morning,
Sorry, This is going to be a rant,
Got a call from Hendersons, our processing date has been changed from Nov 29, to either Nov 1st or Dec 20th.
Dec too late, so tomorrow it is.
I have 11 cockerels who are 3.5 month old, I needed another month to decide who to keep.
I have 1 day.
I have them separated in a group of 5, 3, 2 and 1, the way I grabbed them.
They all look pathetic and confused.
Now that I think of it, so do I.
Going back to the barn, to do more staring.
How I miss the days when I thought they all looked lovely.

Re: Good Morning!
OK so why don't we do a mass processing here along with my hideous cockerels, all of them are ghastly (8) and my suspicions were confirmed by OC. End of November works for me.

Re: Good Morning!
@Killerbunny ... except, if I am reading OC's post correctly, that end of November date is no longer an option: it's either tomorrow or December 20. Oh wait, are you saying that you booked have an end of November processing date?
@Ontario Chick , just wondering, does the December 20 date conflict with something else? if not, is it because you don't want them around for another 20+ days, too close to Christmas?
