2018 NY Chickenstock

[Pyxis]

Host: Boskelli
Date: 5/26/18
Time: 11 am to ???
Location: Finger Lakes, NY

Time again to start planning the yearly NY Chickenstock! This year Boskelli will be hosting at her place in the Finger Lakes. There will be food, a raffle, and of course a lot of chatting about chickens! Please plan to bring a dish for the potluck and something to donate to the raffle if you are coming.

Here is a list of what everyone will have for sale, what everyone is donating for the raffle, and what everyone is bringing for the potluck. Please let me know what you'll have and I will add you to the list.

I have never been to a chickenstock but I'm gonna try this year. Just a long drive but think it would be fun to meet everyone.

If I can make it, I will have AC hatching eggs, frizzle hatching eggs, possibly Call duck hatching eggs, and possibly button quail hatching eggs. If ordered in advance, I could bring babies of any of those. Probably also goslings, if the geese keep laying through April.

And, I might have to bring a baby emu or two along too

As long as things stay the way the are and nothing crazy happens between now and then I should be there. I'll figure out what to bring soon. Can bring my Magpie Duck eggs possibly some Blue Flemish Giant rabbit babies depending on how many are born. I don't really have any good single breeds of chickens as my flock is really just what ever interests me. Maybe some Frizzled Barred Rocks. (I plan on separating them out as soon as my extra coop becomes visible and accessible from under the snow pile that it is currently residing under melts)

I am under strict orders not to bring home any more geese... DH isn't a big fan...I wonder what he would do if I brought home an Emu?

Hi everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve been on BYC, though I read now and then. I’m really hoping to make it to Chickenstock again this year!
I’ve got a few recent photos of birds I picked from @Pyxis there last year.

We would love to see you

Haha I told my DH "I have never asked you for anything for our anniversary before so I really want to go" I'm suckering him into it. Lol

I would really like to do a gift basket so if anyone has any ideas for it let me know.

He probably hasn’t said “no emus” or given strict orders against them. Jus sayin

I can't make it but i'd love to donate to the cause and raffle!

Those eggs are beautiful!! Just make sure you store them pointy end down and that they are no more than 7 days old so they can sit for a day or so after travelling home with them. Yes, i am a hatchaholic!!

I can bring potato salad.

I can bring Colored Sebastopol goose hatching eggs if anyone tells me ahead that they want them. limited amount available. $20 ea.

i'm sure i'll have chicks left. i can post a few days to a week before what i have. I have 5 dozen show quality frizzle serama in the incubator. I also have BCM, Exchequor Leghorn, and Silver Partridge Orpingtons due next weekend.

Looking forward to seeing you all!
