Chickenstock in West Gardiner, Maine Oct. 12

[spook]

This is Roger my splash Bantam Cochin-

The little girl on the left was Suzy (hawk) and the chick on the right survived Cocci (growing very nicely now)

Now you KNOW why I don't have any will power, they are so dang sweet!!!

Can we bring waterfowl-geese?

 

[spook]

Why not? The last Chickenstock I saw bee keepers, jewelry, baskets, dream catchers, turkeys, ducks, chicks, hens, books, and I have no idea what actually sold out cause I kept myself busy with other thangs.
Bring a few extra boxes and what ever you want to get rid of...at one, I saw bunnies and soap too!
It is a place where we and the community can gather, talk birds, meet each other, screen names etc.
After the last chickenstock, this is going to be easy!!!

Roger is adorable, Spook. Beekeepers at chickenstock? Hmm the thought hadn't even occurred to me. I will have to bring some honey & comb.

 

[spook]

Yum honey. Unfortunately I make mine myself from clover and rose blossoms.
Hey, does anyone have full grown hens that they would like to sell. I met up with a couple of fellas that are interested. They would like something hearty like a RIR, BR, I dunno about anything else...this one guy thought that they lay 3 or 4 eggs a day. I hoped he was kidding, never batted an eyelash and told him the truth as I know it. LOL.
I'll be looking forward to seeing those that are coming to the Farmington Fairgrounds!
Take care all!

I'd like to sell about 5 Delaware and 2 Rhode Island Red pullets that are 16 weeks old. No eggs yet. And, would be happy to make arrangements for the transaction before a possible October swap.

Are they open to the public and are they at the fairgrounds?

The last one was at the litchfeild fairgrounds, open to public, and free.
