  HPAI has been found in one backyard flock in Wisconsin.  First case in over a year.    This one is in Taylor County, which is several counties north and a little east of us.

Don’t forget November 25 is the entry deadline

I confirmed with Harry House that "post marked the 25th" is what is meant by the words on entry form.

I just clicked MapQuest to see how long it would take me to get to Arkansas since it is closest. It told me 22 days walking. Really? I think I might drive in stead.

I am pleased to announce the board of directors were split on two national bids, out of the 5 we received. So we have voted to have 2 Ameraucana National Meets for 2024. The first meet will be our Ameraucana Alliance Northern National Meet hosted by the Wisconsin International Poultry Club September 28-29th in Portage Wisconsin. The Second one will be our Ameraucana Alliance Southern National Meet hosted by the Heart of the Ozarks Poultry Association show November 2-3 in Fayetteville Arkansas. So make your plans, get your breeding pens ready and come join us for a good time and great fellowshipping. Stay tuned for more updates coming soon.

Jim Laatsch paid us a visit this afternoon, and he filled me in on what he saw and experienced at the Ohio National 150th anniversary show.   Russ, he also delivered that cockerel, and he looks real nice.   I mailed a check yesterday.   Yes, Jim is a super-charged, high-energy guy, a veteran who saw live action in the Middle East, and is full of enthusiasm for the poultry hobby.   He took over from me the job of show secretary of our local Coulee Region Poultry Show a few years ago, and has done a fantastic job.  Just so all of you know, we will be having an Alliance Meet at our show June 1st, 2024.  All are welcome.   Jim produced the following flyer, and distributed a bunch of them in Columbus over the weekend.  We typically draw 800 - 900 entries and have room for more - all single decked.
