We have 1 pair that we hatched from Rockinpaints. They were hatched new years day and the pullet is at point of lay. The pullet didn't express the barring (she looks like a buff orp) but the roo is barred. We only bought 4 eggs to hatch with the Golden Cuckoo Maran eggs we bought.

What time does this swap start & end?

I did suggest 9 to 3:00 or whenever everyone is done

Was wondering if anybody is interested in some bucket feeders/ nesting boxes. I use the feeders in just about everyone of our pens and alot of the nesting boxes also. I have acouple extra buckets laying around so I can make them up and bring them with us if there is interest. Asking $4 a piece.

Those look interesting. Sorry if I'm a bit confused, do they stick their head in these or are they the kind I've seen that flip upside down and the gravity releases the feed as its consumed?

They just stick thier heads in. That way they can't scratch it all over the place. My chickens were making a huge mess and wasting alot of feed, now they don't waste any. We have it set up so I have a 3" PVC pipe that feeds into them, that way I don't have to go in the pen and is easy to fill. I can fit acouple days worth of food between the bucket and the pipe so I don't have to worry when we go away. I also use the buckets for 5 gallon waters, I love these things. The nesting boxes I usually put a 2x4 on the backside so they can't roll them. I have also screwed them into a wall to hold them in place. They are not real pretty but they are easy to clean, just pop the top off and wash out.
