Alright, now for my Swap Story!!

I had a blast and it went very smoothly for me and mom.  I sold 8 birds and 2 chicken harnesses total and I only came home with 4 chickens and 1 parakeet, So I actually came home with less than I arrived with!!!!

The chickens i cam home with were 2 Cubalaya pullets, 1 rediculously adorable Buff silkie chick, and the Blue Faverolle/andalusian roo from Peacedove. I also came home with Silkie chicken's Parakeet!

I have named the Faverolle roo Lefty, because of his strange toes. One foot has 5 toes and the other has 4 toes. He is very sweet and since I was right next to Peacedove all day staring at his cute face it was just inevitable that he would come home with me. I love him to pieces already and I think he likes it here. He took the world's longest dirt bath yesterday when I let him out to play. He is so pretty and very sweet!love

On the way home we stopped for sodas at a gas station and mom found an ad on CL about a woman looking for 2 bantam hens for her 88 year old father in law's birthday. Since we were going that way anyway I called her and we met at Jerry's. I've been told that the man loved his hens very much. They were my two black cochin pullets.

Hi Laura,

Im not even a chicken person (and my mom really isnt ) but we both had a BLAST and were very impressed! I blocked off both October 13 and 20 2012 as soon as we get the football schedule Ill let you know. Cheers,

Nancy

So mark your calendars - tentatively - for those dates.


I am putting in my vote now for the 13th.  I can't do the 20th, that's the Stevenson show.


It kind of all depends on OSU game days...but I will let them know the 20th will not work!

Yep our Ameracaunas and Favorelles (hope i spelled that right) from Cloverleaf are stunning. And we're absolutely in LOVE with the Fav breed thus far. The eggs we got are now robust pre-teen chicks with friendly, gentle and curious natures.

Visitors (and rustlers wink ) Beware our flock of guardian yardbirds as they will mob you upon entry. big_smile The favs were recently demoted from the yard to a barnyard coop, where as soon as they learn where to roost, they'll join the even more bloodthirsty barnyard flock, including our turkeys and ducks. smile
