I have a question or two for all you long time swappers.

1) Is it considered rude to contact a person that owes you a swap to remind them about your eggs? I know we are all busy and some of us have a lot more swaps going out than others. If they say they are going to ship around this date and then that goes by and you don't hear from them, do you all send a reminder? I just asked them if they got the eggs shipped out and I had a few responses that were kinda, snippy or no reply at all.

2) On the swaps, I do not ship my eggs until I know the person's offer has been claimed. Is this the wrong thing to do?


Thank you so much!

1. No it is not rude to contact a swappers about eggs. And they shouldn't take it as such. If you are having issues getting your claim from someone, PM the mods about it. If it wasn't suppose to be until Spring, please note Spring does not end until June 21.

2. No, eggs should not be shipped until the person who claimed your swap has had their offer claimed.

Calm down now. The Black Bresse are yours. I promise.

Not a spring shipment. I am excited to get my swap eggs and am anxiously waiting, but a pm letting me know what is going on: broody hen, weather change, etc would be all it would take and would be nice.

Just saying.


Thank you for the responses.

Picked up my Rhodebar trio yesterday and dropped off a pair of silver sussex. One of the hens laid me an egg on the way home! Pics soon. have to remove some pics from my camera to make room.

Out to finish making pens before it rains, AGAIN. It's cold!

Not a biggie.. I am not trying to start a dispute. I was just wondering on proper swap etiquette and what to expect.

Just make sure to PM a mod if you don't get any response or a decent response. And don't let it drag out. If you let one individual take their time getting your swap out, they may think they can try that with others.

Wow! Seems like a lot of people are getting Rhodebars. Sounds like they're really catching on quickly!
