That would be awesome, thank you!  I'm going to give everyone a couple days rest and then we can start pulling the plans together!

I am with you!  I wanted to talk to so many people but just couldn't.  I'm going to do cheesecakes of course, and my Serama hatching eggs, but that's it.  I want to socialize...and not have to pay people to take my roosters  lol  It was so totally worth those two cheesecakes though!

WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING TO US?!?!?! OKAY....

Bringing

Dominiques, Orpingtons and Americaunas
- Hatching eggs... These will probably be fall breeding pens by then
- Chicks (I'll hatch them about a month before the swap, I hope, so will be nearly feathered out)
- Started Laying Pullets
- Meat Cockerels.. Eating birds, delicious, free range birds that will be great size for eating by fall swap time!
- Breeding Pullets - we will be hatching more eggs here soon, and should have several extra pullets of each breed to bring to the fall swap.
- Breeding Cockerels - we breed to standard and will have more cockerels than we need for our programs.

BY REQUEST!!!!
I will hatch out chicks of a breed of your choice. I'll try first to find local hatching eggs, but might ship them in if I can't find a breeder to meet me at one of the shows here in the Northwest. Will raise them at least a month before swap, but I have to know way ahead of time to make the connections. I only like to buy show quality/breeder quality eggs, and I prefer hatching American and heritage English birds, but wouldn't mind doing a few other breeds. Please no silkies! big_smile Prices will vary - cost of the eggs, age of the chicks by the swap, etc. I do keep track of all my expenses including electric for incubating and brooding, so I know what my bottom line is per day, varying a small amount with feed efficiency of the chicks.


Wanting

- Always want show/breeder quality hatching eggs, I love American and English breeds, heritage is always good smile
- Food to can/preserve! I will have a first year garden this year, so I'm looking for fruits/veggies to preserve - would like to buy in bulk!
- Might consider a nice B/B/S Orpington pullet or two, nice large show/breeder quality birds
- A nice Blue Americauna pullet with lines to compliment what Rhonda's got already... please email me - my inbox is super full!

Work with my business partner on American Dominiques in large fowl and bantam,

also keep a few Black Sumatras in large fowl and Coturnix Quail in Tibetan and Tibetan Tuxedo.

It was such a great day and so very much fun, and my only regret was that I was by myself at my booth and I didn't have enough time to go around
and really talk to all of you, besides a passing introduction. I hope to remedy that at this next one.celebrate
