Kelly, thanks for hosting, I had a blast! It was great putting faces with names, and seeing all the birds. I just got home and finished putting up the quail up (thanks Bitty Girl). Drive home was two hours less since there were no real traffic jams on the way back.

Bitty, I'm bringing five guineas (3 regular,2 pied). It would be a real shame if they watched their cousins get a good home and they went off to freezer camp instead... (hint, hint, guilt, guilt)

Who was bringing the Black Orps? I'm still interested. Also if some of the newer folks did not feel like reading through about 320 posts (WOW!), I'm looking for Black/Blue/Splash LF with "normal" feathering (not frizzle, silkie, etc.).

You guys are gonna have to help me on this kind of stuff. I'm still new to chickens and such, so I haven't figured out how to price stuff (buying or selling). I'm just glad this is a "BYC family" sale. All of my birds are from the local feed store. The guineas are about 5-6 months...

Hey Swamp Roo, I'm in Ft Myers too! I have come across a few others down here. Maybe we can have a swap here.

Yes, I'd be all over something closer, but if everyone else is central or north, better one person drives 3 hrs than 5 people. I also think that varying the location would make sure one person is not stuck with organizing and having a bunch of people running around at their place every time...
Hi all,
I'm down in Ft Meyers. Not sure if I can make the 3 hr. treck this time or not. I am however VERY interested in the concept one way or another. I'm not ruling this one out yet though. Perhaps if this one works out people might be interested in a regular swap/meet/sale a few times...
