is there any way you could come to the poultry swap at Tractor Supply on Sept. 20th and bring what you are looking to part with? Is love some olive eggers!!

I am chicken-sitting for my best friend today. We started out flocks together this spring and I have given her two of my 10 24 week old Buff Orpingtons. I believe all of mine...
