a no go

There's no pictures this week...but the brooder box is cleaned out and ready for whenever we get biddies or the goslings hatch.

We actually went to the Hudson's Hardware Tuesday afternoon, and the bins were empty. A sales clerk laughed when we asked about the biddies, saying they sold all 75 before noon on Monday, and the previous week sold over 100 before the day was out. In other words, we need to make sure we go by 10am next Monday if we want biddies.  I'm slightly disappointed we won't have the wyandottes, as I think they're pretty when grown. Now if the last week of April we don't get the Leghorns (white egg layers) or Marans (dk brown egg layers), I will be disappointed!
