I will have some nice quality bantam Polish pairs for sale. All of my available pullets/hens are wc black, but the boys are various colors (all can be bred to black and will produce pure, recognized colors). I do have one smooth wc black boy to pair, and he is very nice. The other cockerels...

They'll have cups for food and water, but a lot of folks bring their own. It's personal preference. If you are showing Silkies or Polish you'll want to invest in some pop bottle waterers (and some folks wait to feed and water 'till after the birds have been judged). Nothing worse...

Live birds in a Volkswagen Jetta??? Probably not! I'm looking for hatching eggs as well. Cuckoo Marans. Would LOVE to get a PM from someone that will have some to sell at Crossroads ....
Live Birds in a VW Jetta is very workable! Where is your sense of adventure?!?!
FYI, my primary...
Thanks Erin, for your hospitality and for putting on yet another great swap!! Yeah, the rain made for miserable wet people (and birds), but we still had a blast. And, let me tell you, my son thought camping in your field was super awesome. Apparently your farm is a more exciting destination...

Is she chocolate? I can't tell on my computer screen. I have a chocolate call drake and another that is choc with a white bib...they are definitely pet quality though. I am not looking to re-home any of them, but if you were interested, well, I have 3 call drakes living together in...

Well, you said the magic word: Donuts. That just sealed the deal for my non-chicken hubby. All the encouragement he needed to brave a whole day at the chicken swap, right there.

But Maria I am doing both and then VA two weeks after that. I decided to give hubby the other weekend off
You're heading out to crossroads too? Cool! Think I may go ahead and do Frederick. Since I definitely won't be doing Sussex (which is the week before Indiana) and I'm...
