Fall Bi-Annual Carolina Poultry Party ~ Aug 6th at Irmo Tractor Supply

I've got about the same drive as Betsy, maybe a little less. I was thinking 9 at the absolute earliest! But, we'll see what everyone says.

YAY

I'm so so excited! I think 9 would probably be good. I have about a 1 1/2- 2 hr drive so any earlier than that and I might not make it lol! I'm looking foward to meeting everyone!

Yeah, she told me, "We open at 8." but I told them that I'd be the only one there at that time as most everyone that is "selling/swapping" has a little drive to get to the middle of the state. I was kinda thinking ya'll would want to start at 9 and I have no idea how long these last...I guess until everyone sells out? I've never been to one before, so someone with more knowledge let me know.

And that'd be great about the flyer. I can print out a good many to take to them and I'm sure they have a copier and can make lots more.

I love it when a plan comes together. Alright guys, carry on about all the fun stuff you're going to bring to sell/swap.

9 would be good for me, my drive is 2.5 hours and I will definitely need a cup of coffee before heading out.

I'm glad TSC is helping out with all this! Brandy I live up in Chapin also so if any help is needed just let me know and I'll be more than happy to lend a hand when/where needed.
Brandy and everyone else,
Thanks for all that you've done thus far!!!

I'll start working on the flyer. Im leaving for a short vacation this week so hopefully I'll get it done by the end of next week. If we put it out too early people will forget. I'll aim for having it done before July 8th or the 15th at the latest giving a 3 to 4 week notice.

Yah! Happy it is still happening!

I'll have to tell my hubby and make arrangements to switch hours with my coworker.

When I requested the BYC banner I said to expect 50+ to included buyers, sellers, swappers, and anyone shopping @ TSC that may come by.

I was thinking....should we try to do some door prizes or snacks or something like that?? I know there's a couple fast food joints right there that we could eat at....just trying to find something else to spice it up a little more.

What about a contest or mini-show? Have like a ballot for (any age for all) Best Roo, Best Hen, & Best of Show?? If you guys wanted to do that, i can put that together...have ribbons/awards for the winners.

I have a quad of silver laced bantam Cochins if anyone is interested. Roo is over a year old but the pullets are only about 3 1/2 months old now. PM me for better and more photos.

I also have ducks available. I bought them for egg production but also the soft coloring.
I have Golden Cascades and Saxony. However, I only have Saxony males for sale as my st run ran high in males. I can do pairs and trios and since the GC look a lot like the Saxony I can use male Saxony with GC girls, if you like.
Right now these are penned side by side and have been tagged pink for girls and blue for boys. They were hatched in April and came from Sand Hill and Holderreads.
