Houston Chicken Swap Meet, Lets Start One! - Page 11

Hey Farmergrant are you the one that knows Kellie here in Sabine Pass?

Uh oh...Buffy the Buff Silkie is a HE and not a she! Since we live in a subdivision, I can't  have a rooster crowing. We have 3 other nice hens: Miranda the Maran, Teddy the Americauna, and at the top of the pecking order Spade, an Australorp/Bantam.

Looks like we've found a home for her at Boyd Farms in Conroe...heading up there tomorrow morning. My daughter and I would be interested in a meet up sometime.

Ok, so I am still interested in this, So the person whoever started this, when are you going to have it? And I still have that copper marans rooster for you.

Does she have marans? And a barn full of rabbits? Otherwise no.

I'm looking for large fowl polish pullets if anyone has any.  I have two in the incubator, but you know how that goes.  If both hatch they will probably be cockerels with my luck.  Can trade a barnvelder rooster or 2 Silver Laced Wyandotte cockerels.  I also have SLW, RIR and BR in the bator if anyone is interested.  All large fowl.  These are all shipped eggs so I can't gaurantee quality but the breeder birds look good. Due to hatch the 10th.

I read this whole post hopeing it would lead to a Houston swap meet. Is it still in the works? I would love to come!

it seems it is a difficult thing to start in the Houston area can't seem to get much interest

I have recently moved to Plantersville, TX 20 miles west of Conroe and 5 miles North of Magnolia on 5 acres my chickens have never been so happy.

I am not sure what the term Swap is to most people but there are at least 4 trade days in the Houston area. 2 in the Conroe area ( Montgomery Co. Fairgrounds) and 2 in Arcola ( at the feed store).

 These are mostly sales but you may find someone to Swap with you.

Hey djennings I know Kellie in Sabine Pass ;)  I met here when she lived here in Marble Falls years ago.  Funny that I should come across this post.

Is anyone planning on going to the La Grange Poultry Show in the 1st of September?  I have Cream Legbars that I would love to "Swap".  I will look into the sales area and see if I can reserve a table at the show if anyone is interested.
