There is also going to be a swap in Benton, AR. At the Closed Gas Station, Next to Brown's Restaurant. This Saturday, April 12, 2014 at 11:00 am.

"Our first swap of the year. Bring your birds, eggs, and whatever else you want to bring. Derenda Garrett will be on the premises and will be testing all birds over 3 mos old. Cost of testing will be .75 per bird this year due to the cost increase for testing supplies. I'm hoping for a good turnout with lots of friends and fun so mark your calendar."



We also have this thread:

I really wanted to go to that swap yesterday. Just couldn't manage it this time. Hopefully will make it next time.

I think I will see if my Welsh Harlequin wants to start sitting eggs. I have 7 right now. I want to sell them as hatching eggs, but I'm not sure they are fertile (I haven't SEEN them mating, nor have I hatched them yet)....
