Hi Melissa, glad you joined us. I got a chuckle out of your username. I love banties too and am going to get a few Old English and Seabrites next spring.
Wishing you joy in small things and peace in your heart

Well thank ya'll very, verry much! I feel very welcomed now! Glad ya'll are getting a giggle out of my username....that's my nickname that my wonderful hubby gave me, LOL! He gave me that name after seeing me all the time wearing my hair pulled up in a high pony tail.....I have a very small rounded head and so I look like an onionhead with my hair in a pony tail. With my little round head shaped like an onion and my hair in a pony tail being the greens of the onion LOL, so there you have it, that's how I got my name LOL. I'll have to post some pics of my girls for ya too.........they are my chickee babies!
Here are 3 of my girls....My mottled hen is Dottie-Bird, my partridge hen is Ginger Snaps and my barred hen is Miss Mabels [img http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d937b3127cce87d19f9b517e00000035100QZt2TNuxbMYimg] and here's a pic of little miss Duckee-bird.....she a bit bald on top cause at one time we had 17 chickens and well now I only have 4.......instead of keeping the means one, I kept the sweet ones

Welcome Melissa! Where in OK are you located? General area is good enough if you don't want to name your town. ;)

You're all the way across the state from me.
I'm trying to find more local farmgirls to have fun with.
