Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

[WVstruttin]

I do have some blue in my hens, but it is not the predominant color. It is in the hackles and tails. Like this one:

gotta have some of KYT"s eggs

Actually, I was wondering if anyone knew where to get some quailty bantam Cochins, or eggs.

I've been lucky with CL & roos. I've sold them for $20 each and had people drive for hours to get them. The secret has been a very good, clear, closeup picture. I sometimes get multiple calls and the roos were just HQ birds, but impressive looking. I also have a lady that calls me constantly for roos to butcher. I sell them to her cheap ($2-5 each). These are older boys, not for someone that is used to grocery store mildness/tenderness. But her family is used to homegrown meat. Right now she wants as many as I can sort out for her family Christmas dinner. We could eat them ourselves, but sometimes it isn't worth the time to butcher and it's easier to just have them gone! I usually only balk if it's something that's so striking looking, I know I can get $20 on CL.

Can someone send me a link via pm on how to pack egg with pipe insulation? What i am doing does not look like the eggs will make it or fit in a box..... i am on my phone so i can search like i would at home. HELP

scroll to the bottom.

I see you found it. I've refined how I do it a bit and am very quick now. I can have a dozen eggs packed in a few minutes.

Well I finally did it. I put out a bait station. I have one smart rat. It won't take snap traps (2 different kinds), live traps, sticky traps, nothing. My final option was poison. Now I will have to start doing yard walks every morning to make sure there are no dead critters laying around.

Is there a place I am supposed to be looking for breeding stock for swappers? I check for pictures on swap pages but I don't see any of chickens, and I'm not seeing any pictures posted anywhere else either. Member pages are the swap pages right? Or no? How do I access someone's pictures of the parentage of the hatching eggs they are swapping? I'd like to claim something but I don't see any pictures of where they're coming from.

Thanks!

If you click on someone's username, their albums will be at the bottom of their profile. Everyone should have pictures of the birds posted somewhere if they plan to swap. You can click on my username to see all of my albums.

No good cats around? We have a couple of really good hunters they don't even require cat food they feed themselves.

DH hates cats. And unfortunately there are none around. This thing has set up shop in out rabbit area and bantam orp pen. I can not catch the darn thing.
