Bummer. I am booked at work Sat. , I won't B able to make Merrimack .
I am thinking the 16th in Tilton I can make. The one at TS in Littleton I can make
I may B bringing my 1 1/2 Cochin blk, Banty. one of my bantam frizzles & my bantam seabright Roo,possibly my 2 2mnth old Silkie X bantam EE .
I have never been B4 to a swap. I have only had chickens for 1 1/2 yrs. so still new to it all.
I am looking for ,a Welsummer, Legbar, Russian orloffs, Salamon or lavender Faverolles, Buff Polish silver laced polish possible other Polish. Standard breeds. I love the rare breeds. Also what has caught my eye is the Swedish flower hen & the Hendemora. I only can take in about 6 more, unless I sell or swap my girls & Roo. I have 2 other Silkies Roo's, I really don't need 3

Is there anything we have to do ahead of time to set up a table at a swap if we're from NH?

I am new to all of this, have been to 2 swaps in Littleton, and plan to take a few hens to Tilton on the 16th, and bring another newbie who wants to bring a few of her chickens as well. What do we need to do/fill out/etc?

Thanks in advance!

I still have D'uccle Cockerels I can bring to a swap if anyone is interested ... I've got to slim down on the male population but it's so hard to choose

2 golden necked = (negotiable to good home)
1 Mille Fleur = (negotiable to good home)

1 Lavender / Self Blue = (I would really like to keep this one - but everyone has their price).

All hatched on Kentucky Derby Day - free range, healthy and social able. I don't "handle" them - I just let them be, they haven't shown any aggression towards people. But they are starting to call out each others bluffs

I so wish I could make Merrimack

I hope E1 has a good time.

I am in Claremont...and you?

I'm in Dublin; it's about as far from Merrimack as from Claremont. Actually, Claremont may be a bit closer. Let me know if you don't sell the Brahmas tomorrow; I may still be interested!
