Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

[kraftyladies]

Does anyone have any MF D'Uccle eggs they would be willing to do a side swap for? I ended up with 2 babies, but they both ended up to be roos.

 

[CluckyCharms]

The way I saw it explained is it's like a chain, for example: I offer $15 pp, you claim it and offer 6+ hatching eggs, person x claims your eggs... so I send $15 pp to you, you send 6+ hatching eggs to person x, etc, etc... so we all get to take advantage of what other people have to offer. If 2 people have something they each want, they can do a side swap if they're not able to claim on the thread.

My understanding of the 3 month situation is that for a time the rules were changed so that people who had 7 swaps verified could swap, that rule was recently changed to include being a member for 3 months in addition to having 7 swaps verified (the rules have changed a few times since the swap started, whatever is on page one is what the current rules are)

Anyone correct me if I am wrong...

I was participating in the swap prior to when that rule was put into place so I was 'grandfathered' in. There were a couple of us.

The whole idea of the swap chain is that essentially everyone gives value and receives value, Person A makes an offer. Person B accepts the offer and makes their own offer. Person C accepts Person B's offer and makes their own offer that is accepted by Person D and so on, and so on. You don't necessarily give to the same person who gave to you, but everyone gives and receives something so it's an equivalent exchange of value.

Thank you both very much - it makes sense now. =)

Cool coops, clucky charms!!

It took me a couple times reading the rules and watching before I really understood it, either, haha

Can someone explain to me in a bit more detail how the actual swap thread works? I read everything but I'm still a touch confused. If I do not have any hatching eggs, but I see one of the two breeds we're after on that thread...can I pop up and say "mine, offer 20pp" etc?

I know I can't participate for another 2 months since it says I have to be a member for 3 months before I join - but I still would appreciate clarification so I know what to do when the time comes.

Welcome to the swap, even if you do have to wait 2 more months, we're glad you going to join us. Even if you can't participate directly in the swap yet (which is a whole lot of fun!) you can figure out who has the kind of eggs that you are looking for, contact that person, and arrange a side swap

. Many of us are open to that.

Thank you =) They're not my creation, but that's where we ordered ours from. We just love their coops! We may have to upgrade though - seems as though my original self-imposed limit of 2 hens increased to 4 then 5 now 6 and I can easily see it going to 8. City ordinance is 20 (heaven help me)

Thank you kindly. =) I did offer a side swap for a breed and they'll be laying round springtime, so will pm the member again then. =)

OK, let me see if I can explain this better. Below is a list of the new swappers that still have to complete their initial 7 swaps, so are limited to one swap at a time until each one is verified. Once you have been cleared by crazypetlady, reesepoultry, kraftyladies, or coffeekittie for another swap, you may claim another, regardless of what my list says. I don't keep track of whose swaps have been verified, just the swappers that need to have that done. My list is only published once a night, but your swapping status may change a few times during the day. Once all of your 7 initial verified swaps are completed, your name will be moved to the big list. I may not have everyone's name here that is already swapping, but all new swappers will be added here until I hear differently. As long as all your previous swaps have been completed and verified, you are good to go! Happy swapping!

Thanks for keeping track of this, KYT!!

 

[cjwaldon]

We should all send KYT some eggs as a thank you. If everyone sends just four eggs . . . KYT, how big is your incubator?
