Fruitful Faith's Swap

I'm new to swapping on Back Yard Chickens, but I have been a member of several online swaps (mostly for cloth diapering).
I live in Alaska so shipping without a flat rate may be inflated. I'm also in a much earlier time zone - please keep that in mind!

DISCLAIMER: Please understand, I have four homeschooled children and will try to keep this list as up-to-date as possible. On the off-chance that you ask for something that is no longer available, but I have not had a chance to remove it, I'm sorry!
Items for swap: (pics coming soon, better descriptions, etc)

My In-Search-Ofs are at the bottom of the page!!


***** My most popular swap items are: *****​

~Chicken Forage Cakes
I can do large bricks or mini versions

~Natural Planting Soil
I can get bags of natural dirt from my yard that is almost BLACK. It is amazing for growing!
I will have to see how many pounds of dirt is in one medium flat rate box and get back to whomever is interested,


~Natural Antlers Dog Treat
I have one of these left. It's really an antler, from a buck that was taken for subsistence this winter. I haven't cured it or done anything to it. My dogs had their fill and are bored with antler treats. They are great for dog's teeth! I might get more this year

HOMEMADE GOODIES:

The following treats can be made to order:

*Rice Krispy Log
Rice Kripies rolled around peanut butter and chocolate

*Chocolate "Candy"
Pretzels and crunchy cereal held together with melted chocolate - can also do Smore fudge with golden grahams, marshmallows and chocolate. Yummo!

*Tollhouse Chocolate (Or double chocolate - very rich!) Chip Cookies



~Space-saver sealed or jarred Kippered Alaskan salmon
I need to look in my freezer/shelf and see what all I still have available.
(Not available - fish have not come in yet this year!)


~Jar of pickled Dandelion root
I harvested and pickled this myself last winter. They are fresh out of my yard. They are a little garlicky and a little sweet/spicy!



~Alaskan Blueberry Jam or Oregon Blackberry Jam
My husband made it and his mother canned it. This jar is Oregon blackberry. I will have to see if we have anymore blueberry on hand. I may have to wait until the blueberries come in and just make some more.
(Not currently available!)
But I do have DANDELION JELLY available now!!



**I now have rhubarb plants that I can take from as well. The weather just became nice and spring-like **


~Egg cartons
I only have a few right now.




~5/8 in colored plastic rings for chicken ID.
Green, Blue, yellow, orange and purple. 5/8 inches. Have an opening so the can be twisted on like a key ring. I can do selected numbers or colors, or just grab a bunch




~ Homemade "aged treasure map" laminated signs with saying of your choice
Your choice of saying, laminated or not.



~Buttons, Beads, Elastic, Zippers
Random buttons and beads. Also have what I *think* is 3/8 elastic by the yard, and a ton of white zippers!
