3rd Annual Rocky Mountain Chickenstock May 3rd, 2014

[La Casa de Pollo]

Oh Daloorashens, they are WONDERFUL!

Yay!!
I will probably only be able to take preorders this year for chicks & won't be able to stay the whole time.... But excited to see ya'll!!
I am planning on hatching wheaten marans, olive eggers, bantam cochins & maybe a few bantam Easter eggers this year...

I am in the market for a bantam Cochin pullet and a bantam Easter egger pullet, I can pick them up at Chickenstock. They would need to be old enough to be put out in the run. A couple of my bantams died on me over the winter and I want to replace them, I wouldn't even mind a rooster as well ( I want to let my banty girls hatch their own eggs, I know at least one of them goes broody like clockwork).

I want to bring my Turken hen "Beauty"(will be 1 year old in may) and my Mom's Frizzle hen "Rizzo"(will also be 1 year old in may) to show. Can I bring a mystery bantam (I was never able to figure out the breed)hen to show? I also have unfertilized eggs(I can start saving them up closer to Chickenstock, like a week or two before) to sell if that is even a possibility.

Hey mandi! So your Mom's frizzle DID turn out to be a girl? yay! That is the one you got from me right? Mine was a girl too. She is so fluffy!

I won't have chicks for sale this year (I don't think anyway haha). Not planning to bring any right now, I have gotten all mine hatched and want to have them in the run by end of April...no summer brooding for me, we will be out of town too much over the summer.

Mesha--I would LOVE a wheaten marans pullet or two if you have some grown out to sell at chickenstock. Will you put me on your presale list? I would be glad to pay ahead to reserve them.
I will keep an eye on what else you have, depending on how many of my chicks turn out to be boys I might have room for a couple more.

Are there any flyers we can print out? I'd be happy to post flyers at my local feed stores, etc. Also.....is it okay to have a FREE drawing at the show? I was thinking of donating some things to promote enthusiasm for the event. We had a raffle the first year and I know we can't do that anymore.....but what about FREE?

No flyers yet.. will let you know... Free drawings would be great!! Anyone else want to donate anything?

Mystery bantam for the show is fine... I wouldn't bring unfertilized eggs to the show (everyone who is coming probably already has their own source for eating eggs

)

Awesome! How should we organize it? Draw at a certain time that day? If it's something like a pullet the winner would have to be there to take her. Maybe an enter to win signup in the weeks before the show? I'm not sure. What do you think?

 

[thebirdguy]

I think enter the drawing when you get there and have the drawing at a set time....

I think I can raise up some extra pullets to donate. I mean.....who would turn down free pullets?

Anybody have splash copper marans? I'm looking for a pullet.

Hey Michelle,

Right now I have 2 pullets that are splash. My evil plans were to put them with my black copper to get some nice blues.

If you want some splashes I will probably end up with some chicks. I have 4 blue pullets and a blue boy I'm going to play around with.

Maybe a trade for some creole crazy hairs would be in order!
