Pots of mums, sacks of feed, small jars of honey made by local bees @ Essex Aggie -- these were all donated items.
Somebody brought a lot of silver phoenix chickens this year.
Lots of pet carrying crates that sold for a few dollars, some for a bit more.
Plentiful muscovy ducks.
A box of 3 mallard females.
Lots of call ducks and some call-East Indie crosses.
A cage full of beautiful pigeons.
One penn (female swan).
A half-dozen pairs of Mandarin ducks, and a couple of wood duck drakes.
Lots of laying hens, bantams and ornamental chickens (including - I'm assuming they were keesmom's -- Faverolles)
and while there were plenty of non-descript roosters, this year there didn't seem to be as many "cacciatore" roosters as in some of the previous auctions.
Quite a few guineas.
Lots of boxes of chicks from the Topsfield Fair exhibit on incubation.
A vintage incubator.
A six-compartment quail "coop" with feeder/waterer.
A small aquarium with filter, pump and other accessories -- sold for only a few bucks!
Parrot cages, bird cages, metal wire crates. A bunny hutch (shay's?), a really nice one.
Several pairs of finches, with cages.
Around a half dozen turkeys, royal palm and white holland.
One buff goose (shay's?)
Several pairs of button quail (Luvs Chickens's?)
Nice pair of Pekin ducks (also Luvs Chickens's?)
Still plenty of silkies.
Most sold for only a few bucks, and one guy even got a silkie rooster for free! (Granted, he had bought a lot of stuff that day so this was like a bonus).
Bunnies, and plenty of them! Some of the rabbits went for just a few dollars today, so you did very well with yours, chickn.
