I was just thinking about that last night and forgot to write myself a note to check on it.

I want a space this time.  Have lots to bring if I can get everything ready.

Small carriers for shows, etc., 

Tons of small aquariums,stands and supplies

Parrot toys and supplies and maybe the two pairs of amazons and two Jardine's

A couple of POL barnevelder (LF)sets, bantam brahma layer/breeder groups, Ameraucana, Jersey Giant, and, of course, a few darling well-bred silkies.

I want: jams, jellies, cheescake, honey (esp blueberry)

looking for exhibition-bred Buff orpingtons

The old couple are orange wings -- sorta what you would call rescues as I have no idea of age etc., but they laid an egg last year even tho I haven't actually set them up for raising chicks.

The young-but-mature couple are gorgeous lilac-crowned that are long time bonded but never set up.

They are acclimated to garage, out-building etc just like a chicken and are were not raised as pets but to 'make' healthy pets.

For those that don't know, the Jardine's parrot is of the same family as a A. grey but brilliant kelly and lime green with bright, flashy orange on head, legs, etc.  I know one is Java a girl and the other I don't know if it is Jasmine or a boy (can't remember what his name is right now - brain fart)

I have two Cockatiels that I would like to re-home before the swap, if possible.

Male Gray Cockatiel about 3 yo?, I adopted him about a year and a half ago ~ Cuckoo is a Pretty Bird ~ whistles, talks, loves attention (talking to, not handling) and live jam sessions (he will make lots of happy sounds, which isn't always appreciated by all, but he has a lot of fun!). He prefers not to share really close quarters with other birds. He likes to have his space, and when he has that he seems to get along just fine with others. He has been housed with another cockatiel, and a pair of budgies and white doves. Cuckoo is a hand fed bird that has not been handled in awhile, but where he used to live he had free flight times and he always came back to his cage. He is very personable, and looking for a good home to take him in.

Male Lutino/White Cockatiel ~ Lilu ~ hatched spring 2011, not hand fed, and handled very little, bought as a companion for Cuckoo. Very pretty bird, hoped it was a she, but is now displaying his masculine voice and moves,, which would explain why Cuckoo hasn't bonded with him. Lilu likes to be talked to and comes up to the cage front to listen. He does not like to be handled, and we don't push him. Paid $65 for him, and if I could re-home him for $25 that would be awesome.

There is a Triple Roof Parakeet Cage by Prevue, Dimensions: 26" L x 14" D x 22 ½" wire spacing. Used gently approx.  Best Offer ONLY AFTER Birds have been re-homed. I will use this cage to bring them to the swap if I still have them.

...and...My husband and I have decided to make the trip and come play!

BRINGING:

2 male cockatiels (if they are still here) plus a cage

crocheted heart, stone holding necklaces

WANT:

Unknown at this time
 

LOL

If I brought back another cockatiel, I'd be sleeping in the bird room. I have a female who's bonded with me (or the side of my head) but thinks my SO is her mate (will get that look and start to squat). I hand fed her for a month or so, which is probably why she has some identity issues. Another of her kind, male, would be a population explosion. hahaha.

Hi everyone!

I've been away for quite some time now. I doubt VERY seriously that I'll be able to make the swap as I'm due with our second on the 2nd of May. Not sure if she plans on being on time so it's not fair to say that I'll be there as a vendor. IF and it's a pretty big if, I can make it I MAY bring a few plants to sell as well as egg carrier/collectors that my husband has been making and possibly BCM hatching eggs. Just wanted to pop in and see how everyone was. Hope I can at least make it there to browse!
