This is eighty odd assorted chicks, some of routine breeds, some of "Heritage" breeds. I fetched the latter from Trenton, a round trip of some 450 miles.
We can't tell which are what but that should become clearer as they develop.Saturday, May 2, 2009
Chick time again.
The house smells faintly of Creolin. That's a disinfectant for poultry equipment and it has a distinctive smell. We've recently discovered that it discolours bathtubs.

You went to Trenton and didnt call in!
ReplyDeleteIt's hardly on the way! I went 410/401.
ReplyDeleteI'd certainly be interested to come by and see this idyll though not when carrying precious livestock.
Well, yes, I suppose it would add an hour or so to the journey, but we are only 30 Canadian minutes from the 401. Was it the place at Frankford? There's also a place near Trenton and here that has Lac Lacroix ponies. My friend the horse lady and I are planning a visit there sometime.
ReplyDeleteOf course you and Anna would be most welcome anytime, anytime the animals allow you to escape
It was a place called Performance Poultry, south to Carrying Place and then east a bit. Not a highly organized place. There's an alternative supplier in upstate NY, we thought there might be a hassle with the border and so went with the Canadian but aren't likely to do again.
