Hi all! I am in need of some new blood for my favorelle flock. There are only 2 other people besides myself that breed bantam favorelles and now they have become related in one way or another. SO........I am looking for some good stock, roos and hens, if anyone has some (chicks are an...
Well, I think I have finally got the dates for the remainder to the season here in NE Vermont for the swap meets..................
Great turnout at the last one!
All of these are at the Tractor Supply Company in DERBY, VT from 10-2
JULY 18th
August 15th
Sept 12th

Our other ones...
Before anyone can be naughty....NOT THAT #2!
Well, in case no one posted, it was drizzling, cloudy, breezy and cold on May 15th.
However.........we had to have had about 7-10 vendors at least who braved it out. I sold all 7 birds within the first 1/2 hour I was there. Some of the vendors...
Hi all! Well, thank you to all the die-hard swappers that stuck it out on Saturday (5/15) at the TSC in Derby, VT!! It was our first swap in this area and I think all in all and considering the "wonderful" weather we had, it went pretty well. I sold all 7 of my birds within the first 2 hours...
I know I posted a reminder on another post, but I wanted to know if there are any BYCer's coming to this and if so, what they are bringing, looking for, etc. Only 8 more days!!! Also.....FYI...for those nearby, same day as the IROC clothing swap which is behind TSC! Sounds like this might...
Okay....I got sucked in big time to the TSC chick bins, especially when I saw these little itty bitties running around! We got the feathered legged one for free because the meaty birds pecked at his beak and comb and he was bleeding. I believe I have 3 OEG bantams, but after hours of research...
Hi all! To all of those who have been wishing for a NorthEASTERN Vermont swap, well, here is the first one. It will be held on Saturday, May 15 at the Tractor Supply store in Derby (Newport) Vermont. I am not sure of the ordinances, etc for Canadians, but it is only, what, 7 miles from the...
I am sooooooo excited! The Tractor Supply company here in Derby, VT was new last year and missed out on doing something like this. They are VERY excited to get to be a part of this swap and it could become a yearly thing.
So.....without further ado................
Swap Meet MAY 15, 2010...
Hi everyone! I am REALLY trying to get a feel for how many people might be interested in a swap here in Northeastern Vermont. I know there are those out there that most swaps are hours and hours away. I was thinking one a little closer?? I need to know so I can set a date and get things...
I am finding it VERY difficult to find a swap that is not 3 hours or more from me. I am trying to have a chicken swap / meet here in NE Vermont. The closest that I found was in Johnson which is about 35 minutes from me, but in Sept or Oct. I live in Barton and we have the Orleans county...
Okay...get a look at this guy. We got him and the 2 girls and another rooster all together from a 4-Her's mother. She said Cochin mixes, but the 2 roos look nothing alike! Pepper is the coolest looking one and Charlie is the other one. Pepper really doesn't like the camera. Charlie....quite a...
I have for sale and pick up only....I mean Spice, the Roo is a hefty guy....a pair of Barred Rocks. I raised these 2 from eggs and are very attached to them. I hate to see them go, but I need to slim down the flock to make room for the breeds I want to concentrate on. Hopefully these 2 will...
Two lonely young white Silkie roosters looking for some nice looking female fuzzy butts to call their own. Too many roosters in the hen house and fighting is inevitable with them. Handsome and started rooing a little over a month ago. Believed to be 5 months old. They do have some yellow...
Here is my list....I really appreciate any ideas or suggestions of where to get all of these.
Except for the Faverolles, I would like at least a trio. I plan on breeding, so will need one rooster.
Salmon and Blue Faverolles (bantam size) I currently have 2 roosters and a cockerel and 1...
Hi! Never had this problem before and it looks like the others Charlie is with(2 Salmon Favs roos and a Salmon Favs hen) are not showing any symptoms of this. I haven't checked the other 5, in 2 separate cages, but the 2 Barred Rocks seem to look okay, though I thought the Roo, Spice, legs were...
Trying again....please...
Can someone please help me? I have one of my favorites, a Salmon Favorelles Rooster named Steve that is very hoarse. Now, I heard them crowing (5 roosters total) quite a bit today in their house. When I went in at evening time tonight, I was feeding the goats and...

For sale are 4 Black Cochin / Silkie cross chickens. 2 hens and 2 roos. The roos do not look alike at all, but they are related!
"Charlie" probably looks more like the Cochin side with the comb and all. He has the black feathers and feathered legs and feet. His feathers on his neck and back...
For sale are (2) five month old Barred Rocks. One hen and one roo. Their names are "B' (hen) and "Spice" (roo). "B" should start laying the large brown eggs around the end of next month. Selling these 2 is very heartbreaking, but it was a hard decision to make. Out of 26 eggs, only 3...
One partridge and one buff silkie. I am 100% sure that the buff one named "Rocket" is a roo. The partridge named "Nugget" is looking like and acting like a hen to me. I am pretty sure, but since they are still only about 4-5 months old....well, you know silkie sexing! If Nugget is a male, I...
