Come join us for our third annual "Chick or Treat" Poultry & Small Livestock Swap & Sale on Saturday October 27th, 2012. Always free to set up. This is always a great time with many people and animals arriving in costume. We will be having a costume contest for best human and for best animal...
We are excited to announce that my new book, Talking Chickenese - The Logical Guide To Keeping and Raising Chickens, is finally here. It has turned out much nicer than any of us expected. 248 pages of useful information from the logical standpoint of raising chickens. The book covers such...
Just a reminder to all who are coming to the swap - be sure to stop by your bank before coming out to get smaller bills for making change when buying and selling. The nearest store or bank is a long ways away. it is not fair to sellers when you hand them a $20 bill for a $1 chick.
The 3 Broken Mini Lops - boys, Solid Mini Lop - girl, Black Netherland - boy, Torte Otter Holland Lop - girl
All are kept in separate outdoor elevated cages in large covered areas.
We will be there.
We will have our poultry and livestock products available.
We will also be handling the food. There will be biscuits and gravy along with breakfast rolls available for breakfast. We will be cooking hot dogs and sausage dogs for lunch. There will also be soda, chips and cookies...
We are going to be here rain or shine and so far it sounds like there will be a lot of other people here regardless of the weather. Its been so long since there has been an open swap around here that I think it could be snowing and blowing 50mph and people would still be here. LOL. Between...
We never know how long these are going to last. We have had them go as late as 6pm but most of the time they end around 2pm. But you are welcome to come out and visit any time just call first to make sure we are here. We are located about half way between Ocala and Dunnellon off Hwy 40 West and...
Well, looks like right now the weather gods are calling for an 80% chance of rain for Saturday. But living in Florida we all know that the weather can change in 10 minutes. We are going to have this swap rain or shine so just bring your canopies, tents and umbrellas in case if it does rain. We...
Lots of interest in this swap so far. Let's hope the weather holds. We will be here rain or shine. Everyone has been itchin for a swap as it has been pretty dry around here lately.
We will have new poultry, rabbit and livestock supplies as well as a variety of older chicks available. Also a...
Welcome to the world of poultry. Poultry swaps are a great way to meet other local, like minded people. Though we try to discourage bringing dogs, as they tend to scare the other animals, we do not stop it as long as they are kept under control at all times. There are a few folks who do bring...
We want to thank all of you you ventured out to our swap yesterday. There was a threat of rain but it held off for most of the day and when it did rain it was just for a moment. It seemed like it was another good swap although a bit light on sellers but there was also a multitude of other events...
Looks like the rains may hold off until afternoon. A lot of interest in this swap by phone and email so should be another great turnout.
We will have lots of chicks available in Barred Rock, Black Australorp, Rhode Island Red, Ameracauna, Buff Orpington and Possibly a few Seramas. We will also...
This should be a great place for you to pick up some young birds. We will have about 150 various age and breed chicks ourselves. Swaps are always a great way to meet other like minded people and gather helpful information. We look forward to meeting you.
Looks like the weather will be great for the swap. 88, partly cloudy with 0% chance of rain. But then again this is Florida. Been getting tons of positive response for this swap from emails and phone calls and so it should be another great turnout of people and birds. There will be a ton of...
Thank You to all of the sellers and buyers who ventured out today. We had a great number of buyers today and unfortunately a lot of our regular sellers were not here. Those who did come out sold most, if not all, of what they brought. Could have sold a lot more birds if they would have been...
